Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
A trio of players checked the 9♦6♦5♣A♥ turn and Bryce Yockey then overbet for 60,000 on the 7♦ river out of the small blind.
Anthony Zinno called in the big blind and Koray Aldemir folded. Yockey tabled the J♦10♦ for a flush and Zinno mucked.

Marian Farcas opened to 12,000 from the hijack and received call from Arkadiusz Ignatiuk from the cutoff. Kristen Foxen moved all in for 72,000 from the small blind, forcing a fold from Farcas while Ignatiuk made the call with a covering stack to put Foxen at risk.
Kristen Foxen: A♦K♦
Arkadiusz Ignatiuk: 8♠8♣
It was a classic preflop flip that Ignatiuk got the better of on the J♣7♣5♦ flop. Foxen was getting out of her seat ready to leave the tournament area by the time the 4♠ turn was dealt but the K♣ river gave Foxen top pair for the winner and she collected a third double up in the last hour.

Christopher Puetz and Bryce Yockey engaged in a preflop raising war and the former happily committed his last 187,000 when Yockey went over the top.
Christopher Puetz: K♥K♣
Bryce Yockey: 9♦9♠
The 6♠6♣3♦Q♦Q♣ board delivered no bad beat and Puetz earned a healthy double.
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Chino Rheem had recovered previous losses when he came up second-best with 10♠10♥ against the A♥K♥ of Kelvin Kerber.
The same table included several other big names and Matas Cimbolas was trying to figure out the name of an opponent in the five seat. "My name is Igor. Igor Igor," the answer came.
Only one of those statements was true, as it happened to be Igor Picone from Belgium.
Picone called the shove of Barry Hutter for 28,000 and then saw Tomas Kubaliak move all-in over the top, forcing out Picone.
Barry Hutter: A♦Q♥
Tomas Kubaliak: K♣K♠
The 9♥7♦3♣7♥8♠ board brought no help to Hutter and ended his run on Day 1a.

Chris Hunichen asked for a jack after the J♦J♣4♦J♥ turn when he had Barry Hutter all-in and at risk. However, the Q♦Q♣ of Hutter took it down when the 10♣ river completed the board, as Hunichen instantly mucked his cards.
Despite losing this hand, Hunichen has an above-average stack to his name right now.
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Marian Farcas had opened from middle position before Kristen Foxen moved all in for 57,000 from the button. Farcas called with a covering stack to put Foxen at risk.
Kristen Foxen: A♦Q♥
Marian Farcas: K♦Q♠
Foxen was in excellent shape with a bigger queen and remained ahead on the J♥2♦2♥Q♦6♦ runout to score a full double up through Farcas for the second time in the last two orbits.
