A couple people have hit the rail since play has resumed including Matt Hawrilenko and Richard "quietlion" Brodie.
Daniel Negreanu raised from the small blind, and the big blind called. The flop fell 

, and Negreanu bet. The big blind called. Negreanu bet again after the
on the turn, and his opponent raised. Negreanu got his last chips in, and found his 
had been out-turned by his opponent's 
. The
on the river was no help to Negreanu, and he ran out of the room to attend to his stack in the $10k 2-7 No Limit Championship across the hall.
Maria Ho raised in middle position and a player in the cutoff put in a third bet preflop. Both Ho and a player in the small blind called and the three took a flop of 

.
The player in the small blind bet, Ho raised and and the player in the cutoff called all in. The player in the small blind called as well.
The turn brought the
and Ho's opponent led again. Ho raised and her opponent called.
Ho's opponent slowed down when the
rivered, check-calling her bet. All three hands were opened:
Showdown
Ho: 

Cutoff (All in): 

Small Blind: 

Ho took the pot down with an ace-high flush chipping up to 38,000 chips and eliminating her opponent in the cutoff.
Three players got four bets in preflop including Joe Serock. One player was all in, and Serock and the other were heads up for a side pot.
After a series of bets on each street, the board finished 



.
Serock opened 
and both his opponents, even the all in player, mucked their hands. That large pot brings Serock to 40,000 chips.
Isaac Haxton, Dwyte Pilgrim and Alex Kravchenko have all hit the rail during Level 9.
Lex Veldhuis was heads up on a 

flop. His opponent check-raised, and RaSZi called. The other player led out on the
turn, and Veldhuis flatted. He called one more bet after the
on the river, then let out some unintelligible grumping as he saw his opponent had flopped the nut flush with 
. Vedhuis is down to 7,000 and probably wishes he'd never come back from dinner break.

and Heimiller check-raised Monroe. The Iceman called.
Heimiller check-called after the
