Toomas to the Moon, Pace Back From the Dead
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Elvis Toomas is now sitting on piles.
The board had been washed by the dealer, but the table recounted that Toomas held a full house against his opponent's nut flush.
That's the biggest pot of the night so far as he pushes past 300,000.
A few tables over, Gianluca Pace thought he had been eliminated. He started leaving the poker room until a tourney director informed him he still had 400 chips left.
He has since run that back past a starting stack in a chip and a chair scenario.

Opponent: 
Khouri had turned the king-high straight, but he would have to dodge flush, straight, and full house outs.

Molner Hooks in Pace for the Knockout
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
There was already a sizeable pot brewing of about 30,000 on the 
turn when former MSPT champion Gianluca Pace shoved his remaining stack forward.
Sander Molner almost beat him into the pot and Pace was at risk.
Gianluca Pace:
Sander Molner: 
Pace had shoved right into the set of jacks for Molner and the river changed nothing as Molner appears to be the chip leader in the room about halfway through the night.

Lanes Dodges the Draw to Double
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
It was 2,000 each preflop three-ways to a 
flop and Richard Lanes bet 5,000. He found one caller and they saw the 
turn.
Lanes shoved the last of his stack and was called to be put at risk.
Richard Lanes: 
Bigger Stack:
Lanes had to dodge both a flush and gutshot draw straight, and he did just that as the 
peeled off on the river.
"I'm used to running bad," said Lanes. "It feels weird."
