Thiago Nishijima opened to 95,000 from early position and was called by three players including Kevin Odell (hijack), Shaun Malough (button) and Michael Goldfarb (big blind).
The flop fell 
. Goldfarb checked, Nishijima checked and Odell fired 200,000. Only Nishijima called.
The turn was the 
and Nishijima checked to Odell who quickly bet 350,000. Nishijima thought a bit before folding and Odell opened 
for top set.
Odell tried to trap Nishijima by just calling preflop, and pulled in a nice sized pot.
Michael Goldfarb opened to 150,000 from early position and Justin Conley moved all in for 640,000 in the hijack seat. The action folded back to Goldfarb who went deep into the tank before calling.
Showdown
Goldfarb: 
Conley: 
The 
flop was about as ugly as it could get for Conley and he needed a lot of help to catch up. The turn was paint, but the 
would not suffice and after the 
bricked on the river Conly was eliminated.
Thanks to the fortuitious flop, Goldfarb is now up to 1,900,000 chips.

With Shaun Malough making it 135,000 from under the gun, Raymond Coburn announced all-in for a total of 795,000 from the next seat down and, after pitching up tent in the tank, Malough made the call.
Coburn:
Malough: 
Board: 
"Ray of hope!" screamed the Coburnites on the rail.
Action folded to Shaun Malough who moved all in for 225,000 from the small blind. Raymond Coburn made the call from the big, and the hands were tabled:
Showdown
Malough:
Coburn: 
The 
flop was horrible for Malough, and after the turned that was all she wrote. A meaningless rivered and Malough was off to the cage to collect $92,900 for his 7th place finish.
Coburn is now up to 2,050,000 chips.
Jesse Rockowitz raised to 115,000 from the button and Kevin Odell called from the big blind. After both players had checked the 
flop, Rockowitz took it down with a bet of 145,000 on the turn.
