Nancy St. Laurent moved all in from under the gun and Adam Martin called for his last 100,000 in the cutoff.
Adam Martin: A♠K♠ 
Nancy St. Laurent: 8♥8♣
St. Laurent also had most of her chips in the middle as the two players headed to the flop, which came 7♦7♠3♦. The 4♥ turn kept St. Laurent in the lead, while the 2♣ completed the board on the river and earned her the knockout.
With around 120,000 in the pot on a board of A♥2♠4♥4♣, Owen Balcarcel moved all in from under the gun as Brendan McGinn went deep into the tank from the cutoff. He took a few minutes before calling for his last 122,000.
Balcarcel showed J♥10♥ for a flush draw, while McGinn turned over K♥K♠. "I knew you had kings," tablemate Ronnie Smith told him, and McGinn held on through the A♦ river to earn the double up.
Juliano Destro put in his last 25,000 from the button and was up against Michael Brissette in the big blind.
Juliano Destro: Q♥J♥
Michael Brissette: A♦A♥
"Two pairs, please," Destro said after finding out he had run into aces. He made one pair on the 8♠J♦2♠ flop, but the other never arrived on the 3♥ turn or 9♠ river as he was sent to the rail.
Brandon Holt raised to 20,000 under the gun and Mike Bohn moved all in for 97,000 in the hijack. Holt tanked for a minute before calling to put Bohn at risk.
Mike Bohn: K♥Q♣
Brandon Holt: 5♠5♥
Bohn was racing for his tournament life as the flop came 10♦8♥6♦. The J♥ turn gave him additional outs with a straight draw, and he hit the 9♠ on the river to give him his straight and the double up.

After Steve Morey opened under the gun, Janet Martin shoved for her last 90,000 in middle position and Morey called.
Janet Martin: Q♣Q♦
Steve Morey: A♠K♠
The J♣5♣10♠ flop kept Martin in the lead, but the Q♥ turn improved her to a set but also gave Morey a straight. The river was the 7♥ and Martin was sent to the rail.
A player on the button was all in for his last 130,000 and Sonya Harrison put him at risk under the gun.
All-In Player: J♦J♥
Sonya Harrison: A♥A♣
Harrison had her opponent crushed with her aces, and the 7♠6♥4♣4♥6♠ board earned her the double up.
"Every other orbit she gets aces," tablemate Jeff Dallaire said.
Tom Magee raised to 40,000 under the gun and Jack Marani called in early position. Paul Valastro then moved all in for 110,000 in middle position, and John Worcester called for his last 85,000 in the big blind. Magee also put in his last few chips, while Marani got out of the way.
Tom Magee: A♠J♠
John Worcester: A♣A♥
Paul Valastro: K♥K♦
Worcester had woken up with aces and was a big favorite to take the pot. "Nothing higher than a nine," he pleaded, and the board ran out J♥4♠3♥4♦9♦ to keep him in the lead and earn him a triple up. Magee was sent to the rail.
"This is the first time I've been above starting stack since the first hand," Worcester said.
