Harry Kazazian is all in with ace high and a gut-shot straight draw. He's behind Walter Browne, who has a pair of nines. The last card is dealt, and Browne shows that he paired his ace -- giving him two pair, aces and nines. Kazazian's only chance is to make his straight.

Robert Mizrachi and Darrell Dicken start talking after Dicken asks Mizrachi how many chips he has. They both started the day short, with about 50,000 in chips, but Mizrachi now has about 250,000 and Dicken about 160,000.
Mizrachi says he's impressed by Dicken's play, because he's always considered him a no-limit hold'em specialist. Mizrachi then says, "When PartyPoker closed down [in the United States], that must have cost you about half a billion [dollars]." Dicken just laughs at the absurd number, and says, "Yeah, sure. Half a billion."
But Mizrachi is somewhat serious. "No, really. I mean lifetime." Then Dicken thinks a bit and says, "Yeah, I guess, if you continue the exponential growth of poker over an additional period of ..."
Robert Mizrachi just won a pot with showing against Darrell Dicken's . Mizrachi bets 12,000 after the last card, and Dicken says, "How do you always catch those cards?" Mizrachi doesn't say anything. Dicken finishes with, "Oh well, I'm calling." Mizrachi quickly shows pocket jacks and says, "Jacks up." Dicken taps the table and says "Two pair," but mucks his cards.
Dicken looks at his diminishing chip stack and says, "That's three stud pots in a row you've taken from me." Dicken is down to about 75,000, and Mizrachi is up to about 240,000.
Robert Mizrachi has showing after the last card is dealt, and he bets 12,000. Once again, he's up against Darrell Dicken, who has showing. He thinks for about twenty seconds and says, "You're obviously rolled up," and he folds, giving the pot to Mizrachi.
That's four in a row, Darrell.
After the hand, I double-checked some data with the dealer, and he shared his insight into the hand: "[Darrell Dicken] was on a flush draw; he obviously started with four diamonds, but never got there. He looked at his last card and folded."
The players take a 15-minute break before they start playing seven card stud hi-lo. Official chip counts for the final ten players will be posted soon.
