Three players found themselves all in before the flop, with Jeffrey Silverstein at risk for 15,500, Roberto Desogos in for 37,000, and a third player who covered both with the call in middle position.
Jeffrey Silverstein: 
Roberto Desogos: 
Opponent: 
"I've seen some nasty runouts..." the middle position player quipped, after a player at the table pronounced the good fortune of having two players with the same hand against them.
The 
flop was dry as can be, as was the 
turn. But the middle-position player's premonitions proved true, as the 
hit the river to give both Silverstein and Desogos chunks of the pot, with Desogos earning a large side pot.
"That's how I lose! Pure-pure!" the middle-position player said, still keeping a smile on his face despite the setback.

Albertson avoided disaster on the 
river and earned the pot.
"His name is Dave...and he's a professional!" a tablemate commented about Albertson, who already has a victory in the opening event of this very series.

Stephen Smith raised to 2,800 from under the gun, and was called by Eric Landau in middle position, as well as the player in the big blind.
The big blind checked, and Smith bet 4,000. That did the trick as both of his opponents folded. With the two current chip leaders at the same table, fireworks seem destined to break out sooner rather than later, and we'll keep an eye on that table to see if Smith or Landau manage to run up an even bigger stack.
Meanwhile, Jamie Kerstetter was seen exiting the tournament area soon after, and her elimination was confirmed shortly after.

Kai Koppe raised to 3,000 from under the gun, and was called by Alex Funes on the button, as well as the player in the big blind.
Action checked to Koppe on a 
flop, and he bet 4,000. Only Funes called.
Both players checked the 
turn, and Koppe bet 8,500 on the 
river. Funes raised to 26,400, and Koppe tanked for a bit before calling. Funes showed 
for the nuts, and Koppe mucked.

While our live updates this weekend are focused on the $600 Main Event, this tournament is actually the culmination of a week's worth of tournaments.
Earlier this week, Event #3: $130 Deep Stack No-Limit Hold'em more than doubled its $10,000 guarantee as 232 runners generated a $22,736 prize pool. The top 29 finishers got paid including Nancy Birnbaum (10th - $468), Michael Bailine (14th - $401), Steve Fredlund (17th - $335), Lisa Teebagy (18th - $335), and Nick Visconti (21st - $268).
The title came down to Alan Katsnelson and Justin Datloff and the former, a WSOP Circuit Seminole Coconut Creek ring winner, ultimately prevailed to claim a $5,359 first-place prize.
