We're not sure how much pot-limit split Tom Dwan plays online, but everyone knows he plays ton of PLO. We came to "durrrr"'s table as he was facing a river bet of 1,100 in a three-way pot. The board showed 
. Dwan thought through his decision before tossing 1,100 into the pot. The third player folded.
"Good call," said the original bettor. Dwan opened 
for two pair, queens and tens, to collect the pot. He's up to about 11,600.
When we got to the table, Eric Baldwin had a bet of 2,200 laid out in front of him. His opponent had more chips in front of him, having raised to 6,050. The final board was 
when all of this went down. Baldwin was in the tank for a few minutes and then eventually made the call. His opponent held the 
for a flush and Baldwin mucked his hand, dropping down to 4,300 in chips.
There were six players holding four cards each with the board reading 
. The first two players checked and then Barry Greenstein also checked. After that, two more players checked before the last player to act fired 500. Out of the five other players, only Greenstein made the call of the bet.
The river completed the board with the 
and Greenstein looked down at his hand again. He then fired out a bet of 2,000. His opponent mucked after a brief pause and Greenstein scooped the pot. He's now up to just about 14,000 in chips.
Andy Black, playing from the small blind, took a heads-up raised pot with the button player. Each man checked a flop that rolled out 
. When the 
came on the turn, Black bet pot, which was 950. His opponent then tossed three blue (T500) chips into the pot with no declaration.
"Are you raising?" Black asked. His opponent did not respond. Black asked a second time, still without a response. Eventually, Tom Dwan offered an opnion that it had to be a raise because even though it wasn't enough for a legal raise (1,900), it was more than half of a legal raise (1,425). Finally, the button player said something.
"He made it 950?" he asked.
"What did you think I made it?" Black replied. The button player then completed the raise to 1,900, drawing a fold from Black.
"I think he made a mistake," Black said to Dwan after the hand. "I was just trying to find out if he made a mistake. I had nothing and no draw."
"I'm pretty sure he had a huge hand," said Dwan.
Black still has 8,000 in chips.
All of the purple rebuy chips were cashed in at the beginning of the last break. From here on out if you go broke, you're out. John Monnette found that out when he potted the small blind to 450. Jon Friedberg was in the big blind and said, "I'll give you some very generous action," before re-potting. Both players were somewhat short-stacked and wound up all in.
Monnette: 
Friedberg: 
The board came 
, giving Friedberg a club flush for high and an 8-7 fo low. Monnette had two pair for high and no low and quickly departed the tournament floor.
Friedberg now has about 3,000 in chips.
Level: 5
Blinds: 75/150
Ante: 0

There was an all in at Jose "Nacho" Barbero's table after a flop of 
. Barbero had flopped the nut low with a pair of aces, 
, and was called by a player with 
, the nut low and a pair of tens. The binked the turn and the river bricked 
to wind up quartering Barbero. He was unhappy about it.
"I know I got lucky," said Barbero's opponent, "but what do you expect me to do? I'm not folding my hand."
Barbero is down to about 2,600 with no rebuys left.
On the flop of 
, a player checked to Eli Elezra who fired a bet of 525. His opponent made the call and then the plopped out on the turn. The player fired all in for 850 and Elezra made the call with the 
. His opponent held the

The river completed the board with the allowing Elezra's opponent to scoop the pot with a pair of kings for the high and a better low. Elezr was knocked down to 1,300 chips and he is without any add-on chips left.
While we were wandering the floor, a floor supervisor and a security supervisor approached a player at Table 68, confirmed his name, and asked him if he had been playing blackjack around 11am this morning. The player said that he had been. The floor then explained that the player was overpaid $500 during a color-up, and that the casino would like the $500 back.
The player was confused at first, asking questions about what exactly happened and why it happened. The floor explained that the surveillance footage showed the player being over-paid during a color-up and that the director of table games had asked that the money be recovered. It was at that point that the player started to get angry, saying he had no way of verifying what they were saying was true.
"I can't really believe you guys are interrupting me in the middle of the tournament for this."
"You'd rather we wait until you go broke?" the security supervisor responded.
The player then said that he just wanted to play his hand and the last twenty minutes of the level, and that he couldn't believe they were interrupting him during work. The floor replied that it was easier to find the player while they had a seat assignment for him.
"To tell you the truth, we don't even have to let you play any other hands. We can pull you out right now," the floor explained.
"Twenty minutes guys, please?" the player responded. "I'll come find you."
