Vincent Loria was under the gun at table 32, and moved all in for around 52,000.
Loria then watched as action folded all the way around, facing no resistance while picking up an orbit ahead of his big blind.
Action had concluded at table 33, where Kourtney Sims relayed details of her recent double-up through Glenda Ricci on her right.
Todd Moyes committed 15,000 in the pot before getting out of the way, as Ricci four-bet to 30,000 and Sims was all in for 6,000 more.
Kourtney Sims: A♠A♥
Glenda Ricci: AxKx
Both players caught a piece of the K♠J♠7♠ flop, as Ricci hit a pair while Sims remained ahead. Ricci then hit the K♥ turn to take the lead, only to see Sims connect with the 9♠ river to make a flush and survive.
Moyes informed his opponents that he folded pocket jacks, as Ricci saw half of her stack disappear.
