: 250/500, 50 ante
We get to the table with a 5,000 chip in front of Eric Baldwin and 9,500 in front of Matt Giannetti with a board of 
. As is usual with these two, both are quiet. Eventually Baldwin quietly places a 5,000 chip in front of him to call.
The river was the and Giannetti announced that he was all in.
"Aaaaahhhhh ****," groaned Baldwin, before letting out a laugh and calling.
Giannetti turned over 
leading to a sigh from Baldwin who mucked his hand.

Getting Away From Aces
Level 8
: 300/600, 75 ante
Emad Alabsi relayed a hand that just went down where he had 
on a 
board.
"It went bet, raise, re-raise and I knew my Aces were no good," Alabsi told us.
He was right as one of the players had 
for flopped trips and the other player had for a flopped full house, Sevens full of Kings. That hand would end up holding up and Alabsi would live to play another hand.
Alabsi is fresh off a win earlier this week where his good friend James Woods photo-bombed his winners photo. He also cashed in Event 7.

It's Not Dinner Break Yet...
Level 8
: 300/600, 75 ante
Players are going on a 10 minute break, will come back and play another level, and then go on dinner break. Aaron Massey wasn't a fan of this.
"What the ****, that makes no sense," he said.
