Ante: 4,000
A player in early position moved all in for 40,000 and Rob Palacios put him at risk in the big blind.
All-In Player: 3♥3♣
Rob Palacios: 8♦8♣
Palacios had his opponent dominated with his two eights, and the board ran out 5♥2♦Q♦Q♣4♣ to earn him the knockout.
The fourth and final starting flight has just begun, with 52 players registered at the start.
Shortly after losing the three-way all in to Horace Ingram, John Roberts got in his last 55,000 in a blind versus blind battle with Jeanie Kaufman, who narrowly had him covered.
John Roberts: A♦5♥
Jeanie Kaufman: A♥K♦
Kaufman hit top pair on the K♥10♥9♦ flop, and Roberts was left drawing dead after the 2♠ turn. The river was the 8♥, and Roberts was sent to the rail.
A player in the big blind moved all in for 30,000 and Horace Ingram called under the gun. John Roberts then reshoved in early position, and Ingram paused for a moment before calling for 116,500.
Big Blind: J♣J♦
Horace Ingram: K♦K♣
John Roberts: A♥J♥
Ingram was ahead with his kings, while Roberts was looking for an ace to knock out both opponents. The Q♠5♣3♣ flop was safe for Ingram, and the rest of the board ran out 9♥7♣ to give him the big pot.
Level: 11
Blinds: 1,500/3,000
Ante: 3,000
A player in early position moved all in for 35,000 on a flop of A♦A♥8♥, and Tom Morse called in the cutoff.
All-In Player: K♠J♦
Tom Morse: A♠8♠
"Is that all you got?" tablemate Joseph Bommarito said after Morse turned over his flopped full house.
"I had to think awhile with that one," Morse replied. The at-risk player was already drawing dead, and the 2♦3♦ turn and river were only locked up the knockout for Morse.
A player in middle position moved all in for 25,500, the small blind also put in his last chips, while Ron Amos had both players covered and at risk from early position.
Small Blind: J♥7♠
Middle-Position: K♠Q♠
Ron Amos: 10♦10♣
The Q♣8♣J♣ flop gave the middle-position player top pair, but the small blind hit two pair on the 7♦ turn. The river, though, brought the 3♣ to give Amos a flush and send both opponents to the rail.
"Nice job, dealer. Now you can stay," Amos said.
A player in the cutoff moved all in for 25,000, and Josh Wisdom put him at risk under the gun.
All-In Player: J♠J♣
Josh Wisdom: Q♥J♥
The 5♠A♦3♥ flop kept the at-risk player in the lead with his jacks, while the A♥ turn gave Wisdom a flush draw. The K♥ river gave Wisdom his flush, and he earned the knockout.
