We missed most of the action but saw that Nick Schulman was all in on fifth against Christopher George. The cards were taken away very quickly but we can confirm that Schulman won the hand to double up.

Steve Billirakis was all in on fifth with kings and sixes but Scott Seiver already had trip tens and improved to a boat on sixth. Billirakis needed to hit a king but couldn't catch a break and was eliminated.
Also gone is Mori Eskandani, we missed his hand but saw Men Nguyen's board, a solitary pair of queens apparently being enough.
