In a trend that has occurred after every break so far, yet another announcement was made for a player who couldn't find his table. Must be something in the air today.

We caught action with Jordan Smith all in against one other player. Smith won Event #36: $2,000 No-Limit Hold'em in 2009 and bubbled the November Nine final table in 2009.
He held 
and his opponent held 
. The board ran out 
. Smith now sits with around 17,000 in chips.
We found James ‘Flushy’ Dempsey all in preflop with 
. He was up against an opponent’s 
and it also appeared as though there was another player all in with but we’re unsure of what he had. Although Dempsey flopped a queen, it came 
to give his opponent the flopped nut flush. There would be no runner-runner miracle for Dempsey as the turn and river were the 
and 
and he was literally flushed out of the tournament.

From under the gun, Jason Mercier raised to 600 and got a call from a player in late position. The flop came 
and Mercier led out for 650. His opponent min-raised, making it 1,300 total. Mercier made the call and the 
turned. The two players checked and we were off to a river.
The river paired the board, bringing the 
. Mercier pushed out a bet of 2,950 and his opponent instantly moved all in.
"What is that?" asked Mercier, "Like a thousand more? Yeah I call".
Mercier's opponent triumphantly flipped over 
only to be trumped by Mercier's 
for trip eights. His opponent was sent home while Mercier was able to add a nice amount to his stack.

We caught up with the action on a 
board where Jordan Young was facing a bet of 2,150. He made the call and we couldn’t quite make out what his opponent had but Young showed 
for a pair of aces which were good to boost his stack.
