John Thornton raised to 2,500 in early position and Stephen Green called in the cutoff. The big blind then three-bet to 7,000, and both Thornton and Green called.
The flop came J♣3♦6♦ and the big blind continued for 10,000. Thornton then moved all in for 12,600, and Green and the big blind called.
The 10♦ turn was checked through, and the big blind then bet 10,000 on the A♣ river to chase away Green. He showed A♥K♥, but Thornton had 3♥3♣ for a flopped set to win the pot and triple up.
Korey Barron bet 2,000 from the big blind on a flop of 6♣9♠9♣, Harry Cheatham raised to 6,000 under the gun, and Barron called.
The turn was the J♠ and Barron bet 11,000. Cheatham called to the A♥ river as Barron slowed down and checked. Cheatham then bet 24,500, and Barron called.
Cheatham showed Q♣J♣ for two pair, but Barron had K♥9♥ for trips to win the pot as he moved up to around 200,000.
Jesse Keel moved all in for 35,000 from the small blind and Greg Wood put him at risk in early position.
Jesse Keel: A♥3♠
Greg Wood: A♠K♥
Wood had Keel dominated as the flop came 8♠9♥8♦, but Keel hit the 3♥ on the turn to take the lead with two pair. The river, though, brought the K♠ to give Wood kings and eights, and Keel was sent to the rail.
Three players went to the turn on a board of 4♦8♠J♠Q♦ when a player in early position bet 6,500. Stephen Green called in the cutoff, as did Brett Hagopian in the small blind.
The river was the 4♦ and Hagopian led out for 15,000. The early-position player called, while Green got out of the way. Hagopian then showed 9♦8♦ for a rivered flush, and his opponent mucked.
Bill Haner limped in from early position before an opponent in middle position moved all in for 17,400. Jeffrey Reed called in the big blind, while Haner tanked for a minute before tossing ace-queen into the muck.
All-In Player: A♣9♣
Jeffrey Reed: 10♣10♥
The at-risk player was looking for an ace against Reed's tens, but he couldn't catch up on the 9♠5♥8♦3♠6♠ board and Reed scored the knockout.
Michael Glazer bet 5,000 from under the gun on a flop of 8♦K♠J♣ and Andrew Bakota called on the button.
The turn was the 7♠ and Glazer bet another 12,000. Bakota then raised to 24,000, Glazer moved all in for 30,000, and Bakota called.
Glazer showed A♣K♦ for top pair, but Bakota had turned a straight with 10♠9♦. The river was the 7♥, and Glazer was sent to the rail.
"I was afraid of that, but at that point what could I do," Glazer said.
