Level 11 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Tyler Patterson put in his final 13,000 on the button and was called by Sok Chean out of the big blind to be at risk.

Tyler Patterson: K♠3♣All in
Sok Chean: J♣10♦

Patterson held the slight edge preflop, and the flop kept it interesting as it came 4♥8♥7♥ to keep Patterson with the best hand, but added a straight draw for Chean.

The 8♠ turn was clean for Patterson, but the river was dirty when it came the J♥ to give Chean a pair of jacks and the best hand as Patterson was eliminated.

The hand began with an open to 6,500 from Baljinder Bhupal from early position before Roderick Lejat defended his big blind to create a heads-up pot as they went to a flop.

Both players checked the 10♥ turn to usher in the 7♥ river.

Lejat fired 25,000, which was enough to get the job done as Bhupal opted to exit with a fold to award the pot to Lejat without any further resistance.

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

It was a classic race after a series of raises led to an all-in by Nicholas Lewis from the hijack for approximately 74,000 total and a call by Phillip Chiero out of the big blind to put Lewis at risk.

Nicholas Lewis: A♦K♠All in
Phillip Chiero: Q♦Q♣

The flop favored Chiero when it fanned out J♠4♠3♥ to keep his pocket queens ahead of Lewis, who was still drawing to his overcards.

Lewis missed on the 4♣ turn and the 9♦ river as Chiero pulled in to add to his chip lead thus far on Day 1a.
