The field continues to grow, as players have reached the first 15-minute break of Day 1e.
Late registration remains open for another four levels once play resumes.
George Fugate raised to 1,000 before Matthew Damos tossed out a three-bet to 5,000. David McKim then moved his last 6,100 into the middle, with Fugate folding and Damos making the call.
David McKim: Q♦9♥
Matthew Damos: K♠K♥
McKim saw the bad news as Damos turned over pocket kings, but the 10♣6♣8♥ flop provided some additional outs. McKim picked up more options by making a pair on the 9♦ turn, while the J♥ river completed his straight draw to win the pot.
Jonathan Jackson opened to 1,200 in middle position, and Jason Mills defended his big blind to the 10♦10♣5♥ flop.
Mills checked to Jackson, who continued for 500. That was enough to take the pot, as Mills let his hand go.
George Fugate raised to 1,000 in early position, with Matthew Damos calling in the cutoff. David McKim came along on the button, and Sean Whelan made the call in the big blind.
Whelan checked the K♠2♥7♣ flop, and Fugate continued for 2,000. Damos was the only caller to the 8♥ turn, where Fugate checked.
Damos tossed out a 5,000 chip, and Fugate did not take long to let his hand go.
Level: 4
Blinds: 300/500
Ante: 500
James Morrisey was all in from the cutoff on the 2♦2♥3♦7♣ turn, at risk against Joel Cocanougher across the table.
James Morrisey: A♠A♥
Joel Cocanougher: K♦Q♦
Morrisey's aces were looking to dodge a diamond, and the J♣ river was safe to secure the double-up through Cocanougher.
Christopher Borinsky checked the K♥4♥7♥ flop from the small blind, and Jeffrey Stanley bet 1,000 in middle position. Borinsky called and checked again on the 3♥ turn.
Stanley checked back, and Borinsky led out for 2,600 on the 4♣ river. Stanley sat back in his chair while reaching a decision, opting to stick in a call.
Borinsky tabled 7♦6♦ for sevens and fours, while Stanley showed A♠K♠ for aces and fours to earn the pot.
"Good bet," said Stanley. "I almost folded."
Anthony Gibbs limped in middle position, and Chase Cocanougher did the same on his left. Brandon Metcalf raised on the button to 2,000, and both opponents called to see the 5♥7♣J♣ flop.
Gibbs and Cocanougher checked before Metcalf continued for 2,200. Only Gibbs called to the 2♥ turn, where both players checked. Another pair of checks followed the 4♥ river, and Gibbs tabled 10♦7♦ for a pair of sevens.
Metcalf sent his cards into the muck, and Gibbs picked up the pot.
