Michael Marder recently reentered the tournament and it didn't take long for him to get his remaining 40K in the middle.
Michael Marder: 
Opponent: 
Marder needed some help and he got it on the 
flop. Neither the 
turn nor 
river changed a thing and Marder scored the double.

Jon Borenstein opened for 6,000 under the gun and Joey "Mush" Galazzo called two spots over. Don Himpele then moved all in for around 70,000 from the cutoff and action folded back to Borenstein, who called off for 63,000. Galazzo got out of the way and the hands were turned up.
Jon Borenstein: 
Don Himpele: 
The board ran out 
and Borenstein shipped the double.
Himpele was left with crumbs, but he managed to double, then triple to get himself back up to a manageable stack. Could a comeback be in store? If there is, it'll happen at a different table as Table 43 broke shortly after these happenings.

David Stevens got his last 50,000 all in preflop and was looking to hold to stay alive.
David Stevens: 
Opponent: 
The 
flop was safe enough for Stevens, but the 
turn was scary as it gave his opponent a club flush draw.
Fortunately for Stevens, the 
was a safe card and he doubled up.

The preflop action escaped us but we do know that Victor Ramdin got his stack of around 80,000 all in preflop and was at risk against Greg Fishberg.
Victor Ramdin: 
Greg Fishberg:
Ramdin was looking for an ace, and while the 
flop didn't hit him directly, it did give him added outs as a ten would give him Broadway.
The turn was close to what he was looking for, while the 
river sent him to the rail.
"Sorry it was you, Victor," Fishberg offered. Ramdin smiled and said that he'd return tomorrow to try again on Day 1b.

John Kostelac got his last 22,500 all in preflop from the big blind and found himself in prime position to ship a double against the player on the button.
John Kostelac: 
Button: 
Kostelac had the superior pocket paid and it earned him a double after the board ran out a clean 
.
