With the board reading 
, Andy Bloch's bet of 2,000 received a call from one opponent and chased away two others.
The 
hit the turn and Bloch bet 4,000. The opponent studied Bloch, looking at him for about a minute before raising to 25,000. With only about 12,000 behind, Bloch made the all-in call, tabling 
. His opponent's eyes rolled to the back of his head, turning over 
.
No one-outer appeared, as the river was the 
. Bloch upped his stack to about 52,000.
Andreas Hoivold - as poker legend has it, the owner of the largest comic book collection in Norway - was rather short-stacked earlier, but seems to be making a bit of a recovery. We found him betting out 1,600 on the turn of a 
board. It was enough to make his opponent fold, and Hoivold rallied to 14,000.
A player in the cutoff bet 800, and Eddy Sabat raised to 2,100 from the button. The blinds got out, and the original raiser reraised to 6,800. Sabat then made it 12,000, at which point his opponent let it go.
As the chips were pushed Sabat's way, he showed his hand -- 
-offsuit!
Sabat is at 48,000 now.
A curious hand for Team PokerStars Pro George Danzer, who raised in early position and got a call from the gentleman in the big blind. The two of them checked down the 
flop and the 
turn. They saw a 
river and Mr. Big Blind now bet out 3,000 - roughly twice the pot - forcing a fold from Danzer.
The German Team Pro won't miss those few chips too much though - he's doing just fine on 42,500.
Paul Jackson raised from early to mid position to 800, Vanessa Rousso reraised to 2,200 from the cut-off and Jackson made the call.
Flop: 
Jackson led for 2,500, Rousso raised to 7,500 and Jackson called.
Turn: 
Check, check.
River: 
Jackson bet 10,000 and Rousso made the call.
Jackson showed

Jackson - 50,000
Rousso - 18,000
David Saab got the rest of his stack in on a flop with 
against an opponent's .
The turn card gave his opponent some extra outs, but the river card notched the victory for Saab with a six-high straight.
Saab is up to about 46,000.

Today, three members of the Brunson family started the Main Event and only two remain. While Pam Brunson has been eliminated, both Doyle and Todd are still alive.
We haven't heard much from Todd all day long as he has been playing patiently over in the Pavilion Room. In a recent pot of 3,800, the board read 
and Brunson bet out 2,000. His opponent in Seat 8 folded and he took down the pot, bringing him up to around 31,500.
Who will be the last Brunson standing? Father or son?
There was a commotion in the far corner of the Red Section, and we arrived the board looked like this: 
. Thomas Muehloecker had laying in front of him, and he was stacking up a wave up chips.
Muehloecker eliminated a player after turning a straight flush, and now sits with over 50,000 chips.
