After the 10 on the turn, Saliba checked to Seward, who bet out 75,000. Saliba took some time before moving all in for roughly 230,000, which Seward snap-called to put Saliba at risk.

Justin Saliba: AA All in
Nicholas Seward: 55

Seward flopped a set and was able to crack the aces of Saliba after the 9 on the river, sending out Saliba and moving Seward to the top of the chip counts.

Warren Holds to More Than Triple Up

Level 4 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Neil Warren
Neil Warren

Nate Silver moved all in for 12,000 from under the gun, which was called by Jeremy Becker in the cutoff. Neil Warren on the button then three-bet all in for 32,000, which the small blind Zachary Bruch cold called. It folded back to Becker who made the call as well.

The flop came 86K and both players checked to see the 8 on the turn. Bruch then check-called a bet of 15,000 from Becker.

After the 7 on the river, Bruch checked again, and Becker bet again, this time 45,000. After taking some time, Bruch mucked to give the side pot to Becker.

For the main pot, Silver turned over Q10 for just queen high, while Becker showed KJ for top pair. But it was Warren with the winner, when he tabled AA to more than triple up, and knock out Silver.

Action was picked up on the flop with the board showing 10QA and a short, stacked Nate Silver all in, with Brock Wilson and Zachary Bruch involved in a side pot.

Both players checked to the J turn, and after Bruch bet, Wilson quickly mucked 8x8x to leave the players heads-up, with Silver at risk.

Nate Silver: KJ
Zachary Bruch:66

Silver flopped the nuts, and secured the triple up after the river, to give him some life.
