Level 29 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Daniel Lowery raised to 400,000 on the button, and Justin Dreiling called from the big blind.

Both players checked the Q♦4♥Q♥ flop, to see the 9♥ on the turn. Lowery then called a bet of 500,000 from Dreiling.

After the J♣ on the river, Dreiling bet all in for his stack of 2,850,000, and after a quick thought, Lowery made the call. Dreiling tabled Q♣3♠ for trip queens to take the pot, and Lowery tossed 9♣6♥ in the muck.

Level 28 : Blinds 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

Jeffrey Copeland opened on the button with a raise to 325,000, before Daniel Lowery in the small blind three-bet to 875,000. Once Justin Dreiling folded in the big blind, Copeland four-bet all in for his stack of roughly 3,700,000, and Lowery made the call to put Copeland at risk.

Jeffrey Copeland: A♠Q♦ All in
Daniel Lowery: J♥J♣

It was a massive flip for Copeland's tournament life, and the 10♥Q♥8♣ flop put Copeland ahead with his pair of queens. However, the 9♣ on the turn gave Lowery a straight, and the 5♦ sealed Copeland's fate, as Lowery scooped the pot and sent out Copeland in third place.

Level 28 : Blinds 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

Justin Dreiling raised all in on the button, and when it folded to Connor Hayward in the big blind, he quickly made the call for roughly 1,000,000 to put himself at risk.

Connor Hayward: K♦Q♣ All in
Justin Dreiling: A♠9♣

It was a fair fight, but Hayward would need to improve to stay in the tournament. Unfortunately for him, the board ran out 9♠4♠J♣6♠4♦ and Dreiling's pair of nines were best, sending Hayward out in fifth place.

Level 28 : Blinds 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

In a limped pot between the blinds, the flop came K♠J♣A♠ and Jeffrey Copeland in the big blind called a bet of 225,000 from the small blind Connor Hayward.

Both players checked the K♦ on the turn, which brought the 5♣ on the river. Hayward checked to Copeland, who fired out 200,000 and Hayward quickly mucked to give the pot to Copeland.
