We reached the table to see that Brandon Caputo raised to 4,800 before the flop from the cutoff only to have a short stacked David "ODB" Baker move all in from the big blind. Caputo called and the hands were revealed to show that Baker was in the lead.

Unfortunately for Baker, the flop of 
paired Caputo's deuce and Baker was unable to improve on the turn and the river, officially ending his run at the River Poker Series. Caputo, however, is one of the biggest stacks in the room with 218,000 in chips.

Action folded to Aaron Massey on the button and he opened to 5,100. The player in the big blind defended and the flop came down 
.
The player in the big blind check-called 5,100 from Massey on the flop, landing the 
on the turn. Another check from the player in the big blind led to another Massey bet, this one for 20,000. His opponent gave it some thought, but ultimately mucked.
Massey flashed 
and as the table praised his bluff, he told them, "The ace was a great card to barrel. Didn't really mean to show, but I want to get paid off later."

Our very own Sarah Grant found David "ODB" Baker during the last break to discuss his tournament thus far. Be sure to take a look:
Action had already reached its climax as we reached the table to see Chris Tryba all in and at risk for his last approximately 20,000. Tryba was holding 
against Peter Zhmutski's 
.
The board fell 
and Tryba was unable to improve his hand. By eliminating Tryba, Zhmutski has increased his stack to about 130,000.

We caught up to see the remnants of a hand where Chris Moneymaker was all in for his tournament life before the flop with 
against an opponent's 
.
Moneymaker struck gold on the 
flop and held his lead through the turn and the 
river.
"You guys never catch me when I get my money in good!" Moneymaker said with a smile to our reporters. Regardless of how the chips were made, Moneymaker is now sitting on a stack of about 85,000
