Dennis Backhaus opened to 1,500 from early position. Scott Blumstein was sat two to his left, and he made it 4,500 to go. The player on the button called, and Backhaus did the same.
The 8♥8♣10♠ flop checked through, bringing in the A♥ on the turn. Backhaus checked, and Blumstein fired off a bet of 6,000. Both opponents folded.
David Jackson raised to 1,200 from the hijack and in the big blind, Jeremy Becker defended.
The flop rolled out Q♠6♠4♥ and Becker checked over to Jackson who bet 1,500.
"I'm calling to hit this three on the turn," replied Becker as he matched the bet.
A 3♦ did indeed peel off on the turn to see Becker check over to Jackson who sized up to 5,500.
"It's your funeral," said Becker. "I put you all in."
Jackson obliged for his last 21,400 total.
David Jackson: A♦Q♣ 
Jeremy Becker: 5♣2♦
It was all over for Jackson as Becker had turned a six-high straight to leave Jackson's top pair drawing dead. Becker further improved to a seven-high straight on the 7♥ river and he raked in the remainder of Jackson's chips.
Action was picked up on the turn, with a board reading 9♠7♥5♦4♦ and just north of 10,000 in the middle.
Big blind Julian Huthwaite checked over to late position Max Kingstone, who threw in an overbet of 11,000. Huthwaite then check-raised to 25,000, sending his opponent into the tank. After quite some time, Kingstone let his cards go.
Level: 5
Blinds: 300/600
Ante: 600
Players are now headed to a second 15-minute break of the day. Action resumes at 4:45 p.m. local time.
Greg Himmelbrand raised to 1,200 in early position to see Andrew Ostapchenko call in late position. Richard Vallario three-bet to 3,600 in the hijack and the button, Himmelbrand, and Ostapchenko all called.
The flop rolled out 8♠4♥2♠ and action checked around to Vallario who bet 5,000 and the small blind called. Himmelbrand folded while Ostapchenko raised to 20,000 to see Vallario fold and the small blind jam for 24,500, earning a quick call from Ostapchenko.
Small blind: K♠K♥
Andrew Ostapchenko: 4♠4♦
Nothing changed on the runout of 3♥9♦ and Ostapchenko raked in the pot.
Action was picked up on the river, with the board reading 10♦7♣J♣9♠K♥ and around 11,000 in the pot. Christopher Kennedy had moved all in for 24,200.
David Stefanski, sat to his left, went deep into the tank with a player still left to act behind. After a little while, he called, and the other player folded.
Kennedy had Q♣10♥ and Stefanski tabled Q♠10♠ for the same straight.
With around 20,000 in the pot, small blind David Kinane checked over to middle position Bin Weng with a board reading 9♦9♣6♣10♠7♠.
Weng slid 14,000 forward, which sent Kinane deep into the tank. After quite some time, he found the call, and Weng mucked his hand without showing. Kinane held J♥J♠
