Jim Gardner opened in the cutoff and made the call after Michael Bilodeau moved all in from the small blind.
Michael Bilodeau: A♣10♠ 
Jim Gardner: 8♣8♦
Bilodeau found an ace on the A♠Q♥8♥ flop, but Gardner connected for a set of eights. The 7♦ turn and 4♠ river left Gardner in front, as Bilodeau made his way to the exit.
At a nearby table, Elijah Sampson was also sent to the rail.

Chris Nichol opened with a raise from middle position and Nick Sims three-bet all in next to act. Action folded back to Nichol and he called off for 87,500.
Chris Nichol: A♠10♦
Nick Sims: 9♦9♣
It was a flip and Nichol needed to improve to stay alive. The K♦7♥J♠ flop didn't connect with him directly but he did pick up a gutshot straight draw to a queen.
The 3♣ turn was of no consequence but the Q♥ river was as Nichol spiked a Broadway straight to double.

Rick Ziegler was all in and at risk in middle position, facing John Germano was called from under the gun.
Rick Ziegler: A♥K♦
John Germano: J♠J♦
Ziegler was flipping to stay alive, finding immediate help on the 7♣A♣K♣ flop. That two pair improved to a full house after the K♥ turn, with the 4♥ river completed the board as Ziegler doubled up.

John Germano opened for 45,000 under the gun and was met by an all-in three-bet to 156,000 from Lenora Hebert on the button. Both blinds folded and Germano thought for a few moments before making the call.
Lenora Hebert: 9♣9♥
John Germano: K♦J♣
It was a flip and Hebert was looking to hold to secure a double. She managed to do it on the A♦7♠2♦ flop, but the running Q♣ turn and 10♥ river were disastrous as Germano hit runner-runner to score the knockout.

John Dillon and Jhonny Ortiz both had their stacks in the middle, with the cards on their backs.
Jhonny Ortiz: J♣J♠
John Dillon: 8♠8♦
Ortiz improved to a set on the J♦3♣A♣10♠9♠ runout, doubling his stack while leaving Dillon short.
Dillon was all in from the small blind on the very next hand, making Broadway with K♥Q♥ to win some chips back.
