Patrick Suzuki opened from under the gun to 1,800 and saw action folded around to the button who called, as did both blinds.
The flop came 
and the small- and big blind checked. Suzuki made a continuation-bet of 5,200 and was raised by the player on the button to 11,000. The small blind quickly folded and the big blind went into the tank for about a minute before following suit.

Patrick Suzuki: 
Opponent:

with two hearts and a diamond. Wahdan check-raised Pupillo's 7,500 continuation-bet to 17,500 and Pupillo called.

Nick Pupillo: 
The river fell 
to give Pupillo trips, though it was not enough to beat Wahdan's full house as he doubled up, leaving Pupillo back to square one.

.
After checking behind, Simoneau tabled 
. His opponent turned over 
to show that Simoneau had a pair just one notch higher than that of his own and the pot was sent Simoneau's way, making him the most recent player in the tournament to eclipse a stack of 100,000 in chips.

: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Bryan Devonshire was just seen walking away from the table as the hand in which he was eliminated was finishing. According to a player at the table, he had been all in for his last 100 in chips after a floor ruling that left him with that stack. Apparently, he had made a bet for all but his last 100 and saw an opponent call and expose his hand after thinking Devonshire was all in. It was ruled that all action would stand and when Devonshire's opponent put him all in for his last chip on the river he folded his second-best hand. Several hands later, he was eliminated.
