We found 'Crazy' Mike Thorpe all in with one card to go against Daniel Negreanu who had a 7-6-5-4-3 low at the end. Thorpe’s board showed 
/ 
meaning he would need to hit a five, four or two to win the hand. Thorpe did indeed hit a 
which gave him 7-6-4-3-A for a better low which doubled him up.

Chris Lee completed with a showing, and the gentleman to his right raised to two bets. Lee raised it back, and his opponent made it four bets to go. Lee flatted this time, and off they went.
Lee: (X)(X) / 
/ (X)
Opponent: (X)(X) / 
/ (X)
Lee bet his lead on fourth street, and his opponent called. We're assuming he bet again on fifth, but both player simultaneously put in the bet. On sixth, Mr. Opponent had just 475 chips left, and he bet them all in with the lead. Lee called, turning over in the hole. The all-in player was behind with his , but Lee paired the on seventh to keep him drawing live. He pulled a as well, and it was a good one for him. He improved on the last two streets while Lee could not, and he's doubled up, and that loss knocks "Genius28" all the way down to just about 1,150 chips.

The players are on a 15 minute break as the green T25 chips are being colored up.
Level: 7
Limits: 400/800
Ante: 100
Tryba: (X)(X) / / (X)
Opponent: (X)(X) / / (X)
We caught up with the action on fifth where Chris Tryba’s opponent check-called a bet. On sixth, the player checked again and Tryba gave a confused look before he bet once more. The opponent came back with a check-raise and Tryba opened his eyes widely before he made the call. On seventh, the opponent led out this time and Tryba threw in the crying call. The player turned over 
for a 7-4-3-2-A low and Tryba slammed down 
for a worse seven-low before he mucked.

We're out of internets here in the Pavilion. It's been gone for about 20 minutes, and it seems to be more than just a problem on our line. We'll get you back in the loop as soon as we have some connectivity again.
Sorry, ladies and gents.
A player with an completed, and Brendan Taylor raised with a in the window. Mickey Doft called with a , and the initial raiser called as well, though he'd fold after pulling a on fourth street. The other two went the rest of the way heads up.
Taylor: (X)(X) / 
/ (X)
Doft: (X)(X) / / (X)
Taylor bet again on fourth street, and he led again on fifth. Doft raised there, leaving himself just 800 lonely chips behind. On sixth, that remainder went in, and Taylor called to see the cards.
Taylor: () / / (X)
Doft: () / / (X)
Taylor had a made nine by sixth, but Doft was drawing live to a seven-low. Taylor drew a blank on seventh, and Doft needed a pull. He ripped over his card, though, and it was the 
, an unlucky pair.
That's the end of the road for Doft, unable to survive through the night for the extra equity of a couple more days off work. The bracelet will have to wait until next year.
A player completed with a up, and Jimmy Fricke called with an (though he'd fold on fourth street). Erik Seidel came along with a well, and off they went.
Seidel: (X)(X) / 
Opponent: (X)(X) /
Seldel bet his lead on fourth, fifth, and sixth streets with Mr. Opponent calling the first two of those bombs. When Seidel bet sixth, though, his opponent tanked and folded, showing the he had buried as he mucked. Seidel showed nothing, and that pot increases his stack to about 16,000.
We forgot to tell you in the midst of the internet woes, but Daniel Negreanu has been felted here in the penultimate level of the night.
