On the last hand before break, Damon Muehl got in his last 385,000 from the cutoff and Heath McAllister called in early position.
Damon Muehl: A♠J♥ 
Heath McAllister: 9♠9♦
The flop came 3♥Q♥A♣ and Muehl took the lead with top pair. The rest of the board ran out 4♦2♣, and Muehl doubled up.
Mikiyo Aoki raised to 100,000 in the hijack and Dave Ouellette called in the big blind.
Both players checked the Q♦7♦8♥ flop. Aoki then bet 60,000 on the Q♠ turn, Ouellette raised to 150,000, and Aoki called.
Both players checked the 9♦ river and Ouellette shook his head. He was reluctant to show his cards, but Aoki patiently waited for him to turn over A♥3♥. She then revealed K♥8♠ to win the pot with two pair.
Nicholas Hammarstrom moved all in for 450,000 from middle position and Josh Matti put him at risk in the big blind.
Nicholas Hammarstrom: 10♥10♦
Josh Matti: A♣K♠
Hammarstrom wasn't racing for long as the 10♣7♠6♥ flop gave him top set. The rest of the board ran out 2♣A♥ and he doubled up again.
Mikiyo Aoki limped in from under the gun and Alan Curl called in middle position. Dave Ouellette then raised to 125,000 in the hijack, and Eric Hanson reraised to 500,000 in the big blind. Aoki quickly folded.
"Wow," Curl muttered to himself as he took a few seconds before folding. Ouellette also tanked for a minute, and he also gave up his hand.
Curl then admitted he folded two tens. "You scared the shit out of me when you limped," he said to Aoki.
Mark Fink raised to 85,000 under the gun and Nicholas Hammarstrom committed most of his chips with a reraise in the big blind. Fink then moved all in, and Hammarstrom called for 205,000 total.
Nicholas Hammarstrom: 7♠7♦
Mark Fink: A♣J♥
Hammarstrom spiked a set on the 7♥Q♣4♣ flop, and the 9♥ turn left Fink drawing dead. The A♠ river arrived too late for Fink, and he handed over the double up.
Jon Wurden moved all in for 310,000 under the gun and Damon Muehl called in early position.
Jon Wurden: 6♦6♣
Damon Muehl: A♠K♦
Wurden needed his pair to hold on to survive, and he dodged the 10♠2♦8♦3♥7♠ board to earn the double up.
Preston Dean limped in from middle position before Terry Ketterer raised to 90,000 on the button. Lorri Riley and Harold Brenden called in the blinds, as did Dean.
Ketterer bet another 125,000 on the 2♦3♦5♠ flop, and only Brenden called. The turn was the K♥ and Ketterer bet 200,000. Brenden quickly folded this time.
Level: 24
Blinds: 20,000/40,000
Ante: 40,000
Eric Hanson raised to 65,000 in early position and was called by Mikiyo Aoki in middle position, as well as Dave Ouellette and Kevin Clyde in the blinds.
All four players checked the 9♥2♥6♥ flop. Clyde then bet 75,000 on the 2♦ turn and the table folded around to Ouellette, who raised to 225,000. Clyde called, and the 9♦ fell on the river.
Ouellette then moved all in for 405,000, and Clyde quickly called. He showed Q♣2♣ for trips, but Ouellette had 6♣6♦ for a full house to double up.
Lance Schuchard raised to 75,000 in the hijack and Preston Dean called in the cutoff. Ken Lybeck then moved all in for 550,000 on the button and Terry Ketterer reshoved in the big blind, chasing away Schuchard and Dean.
Ken Lybeck: J♦J♥
Terry Ketterer: K♥K♣
Lybeck had run his jacks into Ketterer's kings, and the A♠7♠8♣A♦9♣ board offered no help as he was eliminated in 18th place.
