From under the gun, Scott Clements raised to 3,600. He was called by one player in the hijack seat and the flop came down 
. Clements bet 4,500 and his opponent raised to 10,000. Clements called.
The turn brought the 
and both players checked to see the 
hit the board on the river. Both checked again.
Clements tabled 
to beat his opponent's 
and win the pot. The two-time World Series of Poker gold bracelet winner is up to 45,000 in chips.
Action folded around to Tom Lee in the small blind and he put in a standard raise. He seemed surprised when the big blind moved all in for 37,400 more. "You want me to call?" Lee asked as he stacked up chips. His opponent didn't say a word, which might have influence Lee to fold. He is sitting with an above-average stack of 140,000.
David "ODB" Baker raised on the button only to have the small blind reraise to 6,500. Baker refused to back down and put in a four-bet to 14,300. The small blind thought about it for a bit before moving all in for 19,900 more. Baker was not happy and obviously did not have a big hand.
"You didn't call yet," the small blind said. "That's a good sign." Baker went back and forth for two minutes before making the call and discovering the bad news:
Baker: 
Small Blind: 
The board ran out an uneventful 
and Baker dropped to 45,000 on the hand.
Three players took a flop of 
with about 13,000 in the pot, and the action checked around to late position. The player on the button bet 7,000, and that was enough to quickly fold Randy Lew. Joe Hachem was the third player in the hand, though, and he proceeded to check-raise all in for his last 33,800.
The shove sent his opponent deep into the tank, and it was several minutes before he finally released his cards into the muck. Hachem let out a disappointed sigh. "Tell the truth about what you had and I'll show you," Hachem said to the man across the table. When his opponent told him, "I had pocket jacks," Hachem incredulously continued, "How could you not call?!"
Hachem rolled over his 
as he scooped up that not-as-big-as-he'd-have-liked pot. Mark him down for close to 55,000 now.

With about 60,000 in the pot and a board reading 
, big-stack Chris DeMaci bet 33,000 into his sole opponent, Ana Marquez. She had around 150,000 back and announced she was all in. DeMaci snap-called and the cards were turned up:
Marquez: 
DeMaci: 
As it appeared, DeMaci had decided to gamble with his small cards and hit the jackpot with a wheel; however, Marquez had a set of aces and could still win the hand if the board paired. With over 300,000 at stake, the dealer put out the . A shell-shocked Marquez made her exit from the Big Event while DeMaci is up over 500,000.
