Daniel Alaei and Anthony Giuetti involved themselves in some raising and calling preflop and on the flop (the exact action missed owing to the double-up on the other table). We caught up with the action on the turn, which Alaei checked and then called a 46,000 bet from Giuetti.
On to the river, which was the , and again Alaei checked it. Giuetti now bet 92,000, and Alaei disappeared into the tank for a very, very long time. When he came out again, he called -- but just mucked his hand when Giuetti turned over .

Randy Dorfman open-shoved from the hijack, and Lev Myrmsky either called or re-shoved from the cutoff; either way, everyone else folded and they were on their backs.
Dorfman:
Myrmsky:
Board:
"Three-oh-five!" shouted a group of railers, partly consisting of William Reynolds and a couple of his buddies. Reasons for this remain obscure. Either way, Dorfman doubled to 260,000, and Myrmsky finished the hand crippled down to 61,000.

Eldar: impassive
Andrew Feldman just got entangled preflop with right-hand-side neighbor David Eldar. He reraised Eldar, but then looked pained when Eldar moved all in. The tension of being near-bubble appears to be getting to him a bit, as he was counted down his extra minute, had his hand removed by the dealer and was still shaking his head 30 seconds later.
This picture perfectly represents what David Eldar looks like when involved in a hand.

Tony G: will be ringtone next
A young man, who I think was William Reynolds, seemed to have slipped past the security around the final two High Rollers tables with a glass of wine.
He was talking to Tony G, and asked, "How do I join the Tony G Fan Club?"
"Go on Facebook," he replied.
"I am going to create a group. You know that Ralph Perry video has to be the most watched thing on YouTube," Reynolds said.
"King-jack is now the Ralph Perry!" Tony G said with pride. "I remember it, 'See how bad he plays!""

Lev Myrmsky
So commented Mr. Dorfman as another wincey hit his table -- for Florian Langmann all in against the of Lev Myrmsky preflop.
The board was dealt all under ten, various suits...until the river which was the . Myrmsky made a noise as though Langmann had stood on his foot but doubled him up to just under 400,000.

I know how Dorfman feels
Andrew Feldman found a spot to move all in for his remaining 160,000 just now, but it could have been better. David Eldar had raised, Feldman pushed, but it was Randy Dorfman whose stack crossed the line (Eldar folded). for Feldman, but for Dorfman.
The flop brought the , however, and then a bunch of rags, provoking a "YESSSS!" so loud it cracked the floor-to-ceiling windows in the Sporting Salon from Feldman, and a much quieter, "Ouch," from Eldar.

Just as the clock ticked down the final seconds of the level, Vanessa Rousso pushed all-in over a David Steicke raise and William Thorson call. It was around 180,000 more to call. Steicke passed instantly and wandered off, but Thorson took a really long time to do the same. She took her sunglasses off for the first time I've seen so far, and waited for him to make a decision. He toyed with his chips, looked at her, both stacks, and eventually passed. Players will be back in about 10 minutes.

Grospellier: nearly another High Roller payday
The French tournament star has bet his last chip in the High Rollers event. He was bokked by a fan on the rail who seconds earlier had told me, "I love ElkY's style, but you can run good, run like God, and run like ElkY..."
He'd taken a few hits to his stack recently, and was now in a position where was the hand he made a move with shoving over Man of the Hour, Anthony Giuetti -- who snap-called him with .
The flop... ...turn...
Vanessa Rousso said, as the table all held their breath, "Oh my God they always give them outs!" but the river was the and Bertrand Grospellier made a hasty exit.
