Marlin Leidholm was short-stacked and all in preflop in the hijack against Zach Byers in the small blind.
Marlin Leidholm: Q♣10♣ 
Zach Byers: Q♦Q♥
Byers was a big favorite to scoop the pot until the dealer put out a monotone flop of 9♣7♣5♣, improving Leidholm to a flush. The J♣ landed on the turn to seal up the victory for Leidholm and the meaningless 9♠ fell on the river.
The player on the button open-shoved for about 90,000 or so and John Pierce made the call in the big blind with the covering stack.
Button: A♥10♣
John Pierce: 5♥5♣
The button improved to top pair on the 5♠A♠4♣ flop, but Pierce flopped a set. The 8♠ landed on the turn and the K♣ fell on the river and Pierce eclipsed the 200,000 chip mark.
At a nearby table, Brad Magnus exited when he was short-stacked and all in with ace-four against Joseph Osterbauer Sr's pocket kings.
The player in middle position moved all in for 30,000 and Miles Barnum reshoved for 60,000 in the hijack.
Middle position: 7♦7♥
Miles Barnum: Q♠Q♣
The Q♥ was the window card, with Barnum immediately improving to a set of queens. The 9♣ and 10♦ completed the rest of the flop.
The 9♥ turn gave Barnum a full house, queens full of nines, and the meaningless 4♣ rolled off on the river.
Jacob Dostal got it all in preflop from under the gun for 40,000 against Aaron Knudson in the hijack who had the covering stack.
Jacob Dostal: K♠9♠
Aaron Knudson: A♦Q♥
Dostal pulled ahead on the K♥2♠3♠ flop, improving to top pair and a flush draw. The 4♦ landed on the turn with Knudson picking up a wheel draw, but the 7♣ saw the pot being pushed Dostal's way.

Timothy Blue was in middle position and was involved in a three-way all in against Andrew Kim in early position and the player in the cutoff. Blue was the short stack of the trio with 19,000, the cutoff had 52,000, and Kim had both of his opponents covered.
Timothy Blue: K♠4♠
Cutoff: A♣Q♥
Andrew Kim: A♠A♦
The flop came 4♣10♠2♥ with Kim's pair of aces still in the lead, but Blue picked up some equity with a pair of fours. The K♦ landed on the turn, improving Blue to two pair, kings and fours. His hand remained best as the 9♣ rolled off on the river.
After the hand, Blue began to stand up thinking that he was eliminated and his tablemates quickly explained to him that he had hit two pair to triple up.
"I was getting ready to go to bed," Blue joked as he sat back down in his chair.
Aaron Eggen raised to 8,000 on the button and Joseph Gauthier defended in the big blind.
The duo checked it down to the river on a runout of 2♣9♦K♣K♥K♠ and Gauthier tabled the winner with 10♠2♠ for a full house, kings full of deuces to best the J♠10♣ of Eggen.
Joseph Osterbauer Sr raised to 10,500 on the button and the player in the small blind three-bet to 32,000. Osterbauer Sr then four-bet jammed and the small blind called for an additional 43,000 or so.
Small blind: 5♣5♥
Joseph Osterbauer Sr: A♥Q♥
The window card was the Q♦ with Osterbauer Sr immediately pairing his queen to pull ahead. The 10♦ and 2♦ completed the rest of the flop.
The 4♥ turn and 9♦ river offered no help to the small blind and he was sent packing.
