Greg Gius just arrived to Bally's Black Hawk and immediately was dealt into the cutoff, where he open-jammed a fresh 25K and was called by the big blind.
Greg Gius: 
Big Blind: 
An ace in the window looked good for Gius but the full flop 
left him with gutshot Broadway and backdoor flush outs to fade. The turn 
eliminated the latter of the two, but still left him needing to fade four outs, which he did as completed the runout for his aces to remain best.

Samir Al-Hadwan limped under the gun and saw Patrick Suzuki jam for 20,000 in the hijack. Action folded back to Al-Hadwan and he announced a call with near certainty he was behind. Instead, the two were off to the races.
Patrick Suzuki: 
Samir Al-Hadwan: 
Suzuki's fives remained best on a runout of 
to earn him the double at Al-Hadwan's expense. Nonetheless, Al-Hadwan appears to have chipped up a bit since his last won pot, having reached 200K for a moment prior to ceding the double to Suzuki.

A pile of chips was in the middle on a board reading 
with heads-up action between Kobie Keir in the hijack and an opponent in the big blind. The big blind check-raised Keir's bet of 10,000 up to 35,000 and Keir called.
The river came and the big blind fired out enough chips to put Keir all in, with Keir quickly dropping a chip onto the felt to call.
Big Blind: 
Kobie Keir: 
Keir called correctly with top set on the wet board and earned the double as a result. His remaining stack was pushed forward to total 35,800, bringing him up above 170,000 just past the midway point of Level 11.

A player in middle position opened the action with a raise to 4,600 and was called by the player on the button. David Coffelt was in the big blind and three-bet to 12,100, sending the original raiser into the tank for over a minute before finding a fold.
