On a 
board, Antonio Esfandiari bet 23,300 from the small blind position. Isaac Baron, who was sitting directly to his left, thought a bit before making the call. The river was the 
and Esfandiari bet again, this time 51,700. Baron tanked hard as he would have to risk almost half his stack to call. Eventually he slid the chips into the middle and was relieved to hear Esfandiari say, "I missed."
Baron tabled 
, which were good enough to win the pot. Both players now sit with about 240,000 chips.
Brandon Meyers moved all in from under the gun for 36,700. Action was on Noah Schwartz next and he was tanking. Michael Martin folded out of turn in the next spot after accidentally not realizing the action was on Schwartz. Schwartz then made the call and play moved to Gavin Smith in the small blind. Smith reraised all in and everyone folded, including Schwartz.
Smith: 
Meyers: 
"Queen, ten, nine?" asked Meyers optimistically.
The dealer then granted his wish with a 
flop. The turn was the 
and the river was the 
. Neither player held a club so the four clubs on board didn't matter. Meyers' straight allowed him to triple up as he cracked the kings of Smith.
From under the gun, Dan O'Brien raised to 4,800. Sam Trickett three-bet to 12,800 from the button and the blinds folded to put action back on O'Brien. He four-bet to 30,500 and won the pot.
Vitaly Lunkin just sent Gavin Griffin soaring to the rail. Griffin was all in for about 35,000 preflop with the 
and Lunkin made the call with the 
. The board ran out 
.
Hafiz Khan check-called a bet of 17,000 from Eugene Katchalov on the 
board before the 
landed on the river and paired the board with eights. Khan checked again and Katchalov fired 42,000. Khan went into the tank for a couple of minutes before finally making what looked like being a very painful fold. He showed that he was laying down the 
to Katchalov.
We caught the action on a 
flop. James Mackey check-raised Mercier's 10,400-chip bet to 26,500. Mercier called and the turn was the 
. Mackey bet 45,000 before Mercier moved all in for 110,700. Mackey called and revealed , well behind the of Mercier. The river was an uneventful 
doubling up Mercier in the process.
Mackey falls to 233,000 while Mercier now has 295,000.
After a raise from Brian Rast, Justin Young moved all in for about 40,000. Matt Glantz made the call and everyone else folded.
Glantz: 
Young:
As you can see, Young unfortunately ran into Glantz's dominating hand. After the board ran out 
, Young was eliminated.
