After "IsildurPty" opened to 200,000 from under the gun, "BluffyRabbit" moved all in from the cutoff. Action folded back to the opener, who made the call with the effective stack of 2,305,809.
"IsildurPty": K♣K♠
"BluffyRabbit": 7♥7♣
"IsildurPty" was in great shape for a double up, but those hopes were quickly dashed when the 6♥2♦7♦ flop gave "BluffyRabbit" a set. The board completed 8♣3♦, offering no help to the short stack, sending them to the rail.

"Sodaski" opened to 160,000 from under the gun and received one caller, "WhineTime" on the button. The chip leader check-called a bet of 171,600 on the 4♦6♥7♦ flop. There was another check-call, now for 340,000, on the K♥ turn.
On the K♣ river, "WhineTime" moved all in for 1,071,210 and once again got called by "Sodaski".
"WhineTime": 9♦10♦
"Sodaski": 6♦6♠
Sixes full of kings was more than enough for "Sodaski" to take it down, adding to his chip lead.

"Sodaski" opened to 160,000 from the hijack. "n1ksis", in the small blind, moved all in for 1,755,877. Once the big blind got out of the way, "Sodaski" made the call and the cards went on their backs.
"n1ksis": K♥Q♦
"Sodaski": A♣Q♥
"Sodaski" already had a commanding lead, and after the A♠7♥6♥ flop, his opponent was left with less than 6% equity. The 8♠ left "n1ksis" drawing dead, and "Sodaski" scooped the pot, soaring into the chip lead.
