On a flop reading 
, Phil Laak check-called a 1,050 bet from his lone opponent. Both players checked when a 
fell on the turn. A 
came on the river and Laak led out for 1,650. His opponent decided to show a from his hand and mucked.

Level 4
: 150/300, 0 ante
We didn't catch the action, but we walked by Eli Elezra's table and saw a rather large pot being shipped his way. The board read , and while Elezra's opponent had in her hand, Elezra had for a better full house. That hand boosted Elezra stack up to 70,000, which is the early lead by our counts.
Dan Kelly raised under the gun to 775, and Kevin Schaffel called. Jason Mercier raised to 2,700, and action folded around to the small blind, who reraised to 8,600. Kelly and Schaffel folded, and Mercier thought for about 20 seconds before sliding in the call. The flop came out 
, and the small blind instantly shoved his last 12,000 in. Mercier thought for about 10 seconds before chucking his cards into the muck, dropping him down to 5,200 with one of his add on chips left.
