In a single-raised pot to the 9♠5♣3♥ flop, Joel Mitchell in the big blind check-raised to 85,000. James Tedrow then reraised to 225,000 and Mitchell used one time bank before he called.
They checked the A♥ turn and Mitchell bet the 8♠ river for 100,000.
Tedrow called and was good with the Q♦Q♣, as Mitchell only had 7♠3♠.
John McDonald raised to 50,000 from under the gun and Bin Weng three-bet to 155,000 out of the small blind. The initial raiser jammed for around 510,000 and Weng snap-called.
John McDonald: A♥9♥ 
Bin Weng: Q♣Q♠
The 9♠3♣2♠ flop gave McDonald the top pair but it was not enough to survive when the 8♦ turn and 4♥ river bricked off.
McDonald was eliminated in 19th place for $12,475.
Mike Dentale raised to 100,000 on the button before Maxwell Young moved all in for 450,000 in the big blind. "Good luck," Dentale told him as he quickly called.
Maxwell Young: A♥A♦
Mike Dentale: A♣Q♠
"If I win this hand, I win the tournament," Dentale said as the flop came 7♠6♥2♣, while the Q♥ turn gave him some hope with a pair. The river was the 5♣, and Young doubled up.
"You know what my Twitter profile is? It's a set up. Every hand," Dentale said.
Concetta Rinaldi raised from middle position and was called by both players in the blinds including Carlos Chadha Villamarin and Adam Agaev. They checked the K♦Q♣9♦ flop to the 3♦ turn on which Chadha Villamarin checked again.
Agaev used a time bank extension and then bet 150,000, earning two folds.
"Finally the first hand for me today," Agaev said while he raked in the pot.
While Nicholas Verderamo was telling his tablemates about appearing on the Jerry Springer show when he was in college, he opened to 50,000 on the button and Joel Mitchell called in the big blind.
Both players checked the 7♦A♣10♣ flop. Mitchell then led out for 45,000 on the 8♣ turn, and Verderamo raised to 200,000. Mitchell called.
The river was the 4♣ and Mitchell led out for 210,000. Verderamo folded, and Mitchell took the pot.
At another table, Ricky Guan and Concetta Rinaldi went to the turn on a board of 8♠8♥Q♦2♣ when Rinaldi bet 70,000 from the big blind. Guan called in the small blind.
Rinaldi bet another 110,000 on the 4♠ river, and Guan called once more. Rinaldi turned over 10♠8♦ for trips, and Guan mucked.
"So what you are saying is you rivered me," Mike Dentale said when he faced a bet of 80,000 on the J♣5♠3♠10♠4♠ board while in the big blind.
He was up against the button preflop raiser Russ Dunlevy who was then called and showed his Q♠J♥ for the flush with the queen.
"I had you," Dunlevy replied and Dentale said "yeah yeah, you had me" before showing the turned eight-high flush.
"I check-raised you on the flop and you called with queen-jack. I played the hand perfectly. This is so horrible at this stage," Dentale sighed.
