We didn't catch the action, but we saw that Sam Barnhart was all in preflop holding . He was racing for his tournament life, as Sean Riley held . Riley caught a jack on the flop, and another one on the river for good measure, and he collected the bounty, upping his stack to 310,000.
Meanwhile, Barnhart will have to settle for a min cash here in LA
Erik Roussakis got the last of his stack in the middle preflop, holding , and he was in great shape against the of our former chip leader David Malka.
Roussakis had Malka drawing nearly dead after the flop came down . Malka would need to catch runner runner, but the didn't do that. The river was the , and Roussakis collected the double up to 183,000, while Malka was knocked down to 570,000.
A player raised to 10,000 from the hijack, then the player in the cutoff reraised to 27,000. Jason Bundy was on the button and he made the call. Action folded back to the original raiser who also made the call.
On the flop, the first two players checked, the Bundy decided to make a bet of 45,000. Everyone folded.
Someone at the table asked Bundy to show the bluff and he obliged, turning up . Bundy is now right around 260,000 chips.
We just saw him play a big pot with one of the chip leaders, David Malka.
With the board reading Bjerno moved all in for right around 200,000 chips. Malka, who was on the button, went into the tank and ponder over his decision a bit before finally folding.
That hand brought Bjerno up to 335,000 and put him up on our top chip counts.
We pointed out earlier in the day that Freddy Deeb was trying to repeat his performance from last year by registering on Day 2 and winning the tournament. Well Adam Weinraub is doing his best to do that himself. Weinraub brought in this morning with less then 15 big blinds to start, and he has worked that up to over 500,000!
With around 50,000 in the pot already, and the board reading Nam Le and David Randall were heads up.
Action went check, check on the turn and the dealer dealt out the river.
Nam took a second to check his cards and slowly bet out 23,000. David Randall tanked for a little bit before throwing in one of the new T25,000 chips to call.
"I have the ten," Le said before turning up his hand, .
"That's a straight flush," Randall said, laughing.
We haven't seen Suzie Zhao play many hands today but the ones we have seen, she's had aces. The last hand we saw was no different. She had two players at risk this time.
Zhao:
Player 1:
Player 2:
The flop came out , and Zhao locked up a double knock out.
"You guys only post the hands when I have aces!" Zhao said to us after the hand.
