Only Wayachal called.

Jeffrey Giordano: {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Sumeet Wayachal: {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

Board: {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{5-Spades}{9-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

Level 30 : 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

It's been a night of shorter stacks winning all ins to stay alive, and that pattern continues to hold through Level 30.

The average stack is around 45 big blinds, with Bosu Avunoori, who came into Day 3 as the chip leader, still at the top of the heap.

Level 30 : 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Kenny Huynh open raised on the button, and Joel Deutsch called in the small blind.

Deutsch led out for 150,000 on the {7-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{q-Clubs} flop, Huynh raised to 475,000, and Deutsch called.

Both players checked the {6-Spades} turn. Deutsch bet 550,000 on the {k-Diamonds} river, and Huynh called.

"Good call," said Deutsch, showing {j-Hearts}{9-Hearts}. Huynh turned over {5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}, and fifth pair was good enough to take down the two-million-plus pot.

Sumeet Wayacahl open shoved from the small blind, and Joey Deforca called in the big blind.

Sumeet Wayachal: {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Joey Deforca: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}

Board: {q-Hearts}{a-Spades}{2-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

Wayachal found two pair on the flop, and the aftermath left Deforca with just 400,000 chips.

Deforca was on the big blind in the following hand, with 300,000 chips committed by the big blind and ante. Michael Wolf shoved from the cutoff with pocket aces, and Deforca called with nine-four offsuit. Wolf won the hand, and Deforca went out one spot short of the final table.
