In a raised pot on a flop of 
, Herman Eisele had 10,000 in front of him which was either a bet or a check-raise, but either way his opponent responded by moving all in for an additional 15,000. Eisele made the call.
Eisele: 
Opponent: 
Eisele held a monster straight-flush draw but his opponent showed pocket rockets. The turn was the 
and river 
to brick the board and double up his opponent. Eisele slips to 79,000.
Brian Hawkins raised to 3,800 from early position, and the big blind, Robert Aron, reraised to 11,200. Hawkins four-bet shoved for 44,300, enough to cover Aron. Robert called instantly with , and Hawkins was in bad shape with 
. The board came 
, bringing Hawkins draws but no rescue. While Aron moved up to 93,000, Hawkins was left with just 5,000.
The next hand, Hawkins moved all in under the gun with 
. An opponent in late position called with 
and flopped a set. The board ran out 
, giving Hawkins' opponent kings full and leaving the Sn8wman with nothing but a carrot.
Andrew Chen has eliminated from the tournament in unfortunate circumstances. He took ace-king into battle preflop against ace-queen, but two queens on board left Chen felted and on his way to the cashier.
It's not often that a player is happy to get a penalty. However Eugene Castro just wandered past our table to happily explain the details.
After an opponent moved all in on him preflop for around 50,000 holding a rather meager 
, Castro made the call with pocket tens and spiked a set on the flop to take in the monstrous pot.
In all the commotion and stacking of chips, the next hand was dealt and another player moved all in. Castro looked down at 
and joked to the table about how he can't call with that hand, flashing the cards to the table, but not realizing that there was still players left to act in the hand.
A player at the table called the floor, and despite the incident being rather innocent, Castro was slapped with a one orbit penalty.
"I'll take a one orbit penalty if I can double up every time!" Castro said with a laugh. He's up to 160,000, so we don't think the missed blinds and antes will hurt too much.
On a 
flop, Marc Magazu bet 5,600. Josh Norris made the call, and the turn brought the 
. Magazu bet out 11,000, and Norris called again. Magazu fired another bullet after the on the river, making it 20,000 this time. Norris couldn't call a third bet with four to a straight on the board, folding instead. Magazu showed the 
and stacked the nice pot. He's up to 125,000 now while Norris slipped to 93,000.
Tony Dunst has taken a hit in a preflop clash against a late position opponent. Dunst was in the big blind and we assume he re-raised against his opponent's opening bet. The chips were in preflop and Dunst was dominated.
Dunst: 
Opponent: 
The late position player slammed the table in disgust when the flop landed as Dunst took the lead but his mood quickly changed on the turn. The on the river sealed the deal and Dunst takes a hit to slip to 55,000.
PokerStars Pro Arnaud Mattern is back in action, not to worry.
Ryan Beckwith moved all in for 21,900 from middle position, and the player in the small blind looked him up. Beckwith was ahead with and needed to dodge the small blind's . The paint-free board fell 
, and Beckwith doubled to 47,000.
