Martin Holds
David Diaz was chipping up something fierce early in the day. But since then he hasn't been able to continue the accumulation process. He tried to take out a short-stacked Jesse Martin, who moved all in for about 70,000. Diaz called with 
but was dominated by Martin's 
. A paired flop, 
, didn't improve either player but wasn't the best flop for Martin. It raised the specter of a chopped pot. The turn bricked 
and Martin caught an unnecessary queen on the river to double up.
Diaz is down to about 195,000.
