Matthew Schumacher opened to 12,000 in middle position and Mario Mendoza jammed all in for 71,000 in the cutoff. The action folded back to Schumacher who flicked in a chip to make the call.
Mario Mendoza: A♥Q♦
Matthew Schumacher: J♠J♦
The flop came A♣J♣10♦ and despite flopping a set of jacks, Schumacher still had to sweat the runout as Mendoza had a straight draw. The 5♦ on the turn was a brick and the 3♦ on the river also left Schumacher with the winning hand.

Curtis Sadler kicked things off by shoving all in for 54,000 in early position and Brian Richardson also moved all in for 68,000 in the small blind. William Smith asked for a count from the big blind and then called to put both players at risk.
Curtis Sadler: K♦10♦
Brian Richardson: A♠8♠
William Smith: A♥10♥
The board ran out 7♦3♠3♣3♥Q♦ and Richardson was headed for the exit until everyone realized that he would stick around, as the two ace-highs would chop up Sadler's chips.
