A player moved all in for 18,900 from under the gun, Marcio Cid Holanda re-shoved on the button, and the action was on Will Reynolds in the small blind.
"The only thing I know about him," Reynolds said pointing at Holanda. "Is that you're not Andrew Feldman."
The table broke into laughter, and Reynolds continued to tank for another half of a minute. He finally folded, and the hands were opened.
Showdown
Holanda: 
Shover: 
"I had jacks," Reynolds announced.
The flop: 
. Bingo!
The turn and river came 
, 
respectively, giving the player under the gun a winning flush. Reynolds continued to bemoan the fact that he just folded quads, while Holanda wasn't too happy after having his aces cracked.
A player in middle position opened with a standard raise, and JC Alvarado three-bet to 8,100 in the blinds. Mr. Raiser called, and off they went heads-up.
The dealer spread out 
, and Alvarado continued out with 8,600. His bet was called, and the two men checked through the 
turn. On the river, the 
paired the board, and Alvardo fired back out with 12,800. Mr. Opponent spent a few long minutes in the tank before plunking the call into the pot.
Alvarado tabled 
for queens up, and a muck from his opponent shipped him the pot to increase his count to about 140,000.
Harrison Gimbel (button) and the small blind tangled up in a preflop raising war that left the opponent all in for 79,100 total. Gimbel had that covered, and his 
was far the best hand. His opponent showed up , and the sweat was on.
There was no funny stuff on the 
board, and the knockout pot moves Gimbel all the way up to about 180,000 chips.
If, for some reason, you're having trouble placing the name Harrison Gimbel, have a read about this little tournament he won in this building two years ago.
After a series of preflop raises, Tommy Vedes was heads up with an opponent with the board reading . Both players checked.
Vedes check-called a 7,600-chip bet after the 
turned, and the 
completed the board. Vedes checked, his opponent fired 12,500, and Vedes tank-called. The player chose not to show his hand, and Vedes tabled 
for a pair of tens.
"This is how we do, kid," Vedes told the player as he raked in the pot.
