turn, Hinton put his last 3,700 in and White called.

We found Rick Robbins all in for 14,000 in the big blind with 
against small blind Lee Wu's 
. Apparently, Wu had opened and called Robbins' shove.
"I guess we both have two live cards," Robbins observed before 
flopped. "And he just hit his."
Robbins did not find any help on the last two streets and the RunGood Hard Rock Tulsa second-place finisher will have to get through Day 1c if he hopes to repeat his final table appearance.

"I was licking my chops when you went to bet 8,000, because I thought I had the best hand," Eddleman said. "But then you reached for more. Why did you go back for more?"
After another minute or two, he tossed in a call.
"Ace of clubs," Barlow said softly, turning up 
.
Eddleman said he had a smaller club.

In a multi-way limped pot, a player in early position bet 3,000 on a 
flop and Rodney Spriggs made it 7,800 from his immediate left. Everyone else folded, and the bettor called. He then checked the turn and Spriggs put him all in for about 10,000. The player called off with 
but was in bad shape against the 
of Spriggs. The river was a blank.
