Mercier: 
Pezzin: 
Jason Mercier and Pat Pezzin got into a raising war on fourth street when the last of the Canadian's chips went in, "I already have two pair," said Mercier, "I guess I have to hit a king," replied Pezzin. The boards ran out for both and Mercier's two pair stayed good for the pot.

Amaral: /

Berger: / 
/
Young: / / FOLDED
Chris Amaral called the completion, Barry Berger who was down to 400 in chips not long ago raised and Jason Young called as did Amaral. On fourth Berger bet, Young raised, Amaral called and Berger re-raised all in for 1,950 more. Both players called and checked it down until seventh where Amaral bet and Young laid it down. Amaral showed 
for an ace high flush and some players at the table said nice hand but now it was time for a sweat. Berry peeked down and immediately flipped over for a full house and the triple up.
