Noel Rodriguez raised to 10,000 from UTG+1, then snapped off a three-bet shove for 95,000 from Phil Beesley in the big blind.
Rodriguez: 
Beesley: 
Rodriguez could only shake his head as the 
board couldn't bail him out of a cooler, and he was left with just a few big blinds.
Phil Beesley jammed for 51,500 from UTG+1, and action folded to Joel Danforth in the big blind.
"I'll gamble. Call."
Beesley: 
Danforth: 
Beesley hit a king on the 
flop and never looked back after the turn and river secured him a double.
"I tried," Danforth said as he paid off his debt.
Noel Rodriguez got his last 81,000 in from the button, and Jasthi Kumar had him at risk in the big blind.
Rodriguez: 
Kumar: 
Kumar picked up a flush draw on the 
flop, but he couldn't hit his diamond or ace on the turn or 
river.
Patrick Truong raised to 6,000 from middle position and Doug Englekirk responded by three-betting all in for 38,500 from the hijack. Action folded back to Truong and he paised for a few beats before making the call.
Truong: 
Englekirk:
Englekirk was way out in front, but much to his dismay, Truong got lucky when he made two pair on the 
flop. The turn didn't change anything and the 
river actually improved Truong to a full house.
Level: 14
Blinds: 2,000/4,000
Ante: 4,000
