On the turn with a board of 9 x x 6, the big blind was all-in against Josias Santos. Unfortunately he was drawing slim as his 
(two pair) was out-turned by Santos' 
(set of sixes).
Only a nine on the river would save him, but it was a brick and he was felted. Santos took the pot, chipping up to 169,000.

After action folded to him in the cutoff, Rick Lee jammed his last ~20,000 (5 big blinds).
Raj Desai is on his left on the button and opted to preserve his big stack, folding his hand. The blinds surrendered as well and Lee took the pot, chipping up to ~30,000.
The winner of yesterday's $230 Deeper Stack NLH event is not doing so well here in this flight, playing below the starting stack with only 6 big blinds. If he fails to find a bag at the end of Level 16, (or even if he does) Lee has the option to fire again in Flight B.
