Andres Moran Eliminated in 7th Place ($14,634)

Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Andres Moran

Andres Moran moved all in from under the gun for 760,000 and after some deliberation was called in the big blind by Hesam Fadaifar.

Andres Moran: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}
Hesam Fadaifar: {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}

Moran had way the best of it, but the flop brought hope for Fadaifar with an inside straight draw on {k-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{10-Hearts}.

He wouldn't have to wait long for good news, as the dealer turned the {j-Diamonds}. The irrelevant {9-Diamonds} on the river completed the hand and sent Moran to the pay window in shocking fashion.

Adam Friedman Eliminated in 6th Place ($18,750)

Adam Friedman

Adam Friedman opened to 315,000 in first position, but when action made it to Rich Lanes on the button, Lanes quickly announced "800,000".

The blinds folded, and after some thought, Friedman called, leaving himself just 110,000 behind.

The dealer spread a flop of {5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{3-Spades}, and Lanes continued by putting Friedman all in. Friedman called and was in decent shape.

Adam Friedman: {7-Diamonds}{7-Spades}
Rich Lanes: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}

Lanes called for an ace or a king, then after the dealer dropped a {4-Hearts} on the turn, he added "two" to his request list.

The dealer obliged and put out the {2-Diamonds}, ending Friedman's run in 6th place

David Leese Eliminated in 5th Place ($24,695)

Level 28 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

A massive cooler on the flop has seen David Leese eliminated.

Leese got all his chips in the middle on a flop of {q-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{7-Clubs} in the big blind against Derek Molnar in the small blind. Leese thought he was good until he saw what he ran into.

David Leese: {q-Hearts}{6-Spades}
Derek Molnar: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}

Leese's top and bottom pair were no match for Molnar's set of sevens, which held up through the {k-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} runout.

Kolman Wins Huge Pot From Lanes Before Break

Level 28 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Sebastin Kolman
Sebastin Kolman

Rich Lanes raised to 300,000 in the cutoff and got called by Sebastin Kolman in the big blind.

The flop came {3-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{9-Spades} and after Kolman checked, Lane fired out 400,000.

Kolman called to see the {6-Spades} on the turn, then checked again.

This time, Lanes fired another 600,000, which Kolman replied to with a check-raise all in for 1,100,000.

Maybe a bit surprisingly, Lanes called.

Sebastin Kolman: {3-Spades}{3-Diamonds}
Rich Lanes: {9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}

Kolman's set of threes had Lanes' pair of nines and a gutshot straight draw crushed.

Just for good measure, the {3-Clubs} fell on the river to give Kolman quads and the chip lead as the players went to break.
