Zachary Humphrey - 11th Place.

Majid Yahyaei opened to 45,000 under the gun, and Zach Humphrey, who has been quiet so far on Day 3, shipped it from the big blind for 333,000. Yahyaei tanked for a couple of minutes before making the call.

Yahyaei: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Humphrey: {k-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}

Humphrey was behind, but he turned things around when a {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} flop came. An {a-Spades} arrived on the turn though, and Yahyaei pumped his fist as a friend on the rail began jumping up and down with excitement. He still had a card to fade though, and he did just that when the {2-Diamonds} arrived on the river.

Bishop Scores a Double

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Action folded around to Daniel Bishop who popped it up to an unknown amount from the button. Masayuki Nagata shipped all in over the top fromt he small blind, putting Bishop all in. It folded back to Bishop and he called for his tournament life.

Bishop: {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}
Nagata: {A-Clubs}{5-Spades}

Bishop was way out in the lead heading to the flop and maintained the lead as the flop came {K-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}. Fourth street was the {2-Hearts} and Bishop simply needed to dodge a five to double up. He did exactly that as the {4-Clubs} finished off the board, forcing Nagata to ship over double up chips. Bishop is now sitting on about 675,000 to Nagata's 800,000.

TJ Cloutier - 13th Place.

TJ Cloutier opened for 60,000 from the cutoff, and Tommy Townsend reraised to 150,000 from the button. Cloutier immediately moved all in after the blinds folded. Townsend leaned back in his seat before calling.

Townsend: {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Cloutier: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

The flop came {3-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{2-Spades}, and Cloutier seemed to be due to lose this flip after winning his last one. Hope arrived on the turn in the form of the {5-Spades}, giving him four additional outs. It wasn't to be, however, as the river was an {8-Diamonds}, and the tournament legend was done in 13th place.

Bartlett Doubles; Duval Folds a Straight

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Stephen Bartlett got all in preflop against Dan Martin, who covered him.

Martin: {j-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Bartlett: {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

The flop came {a-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}, and Bartlett went from way behind to way ahead as he flopped a set. The turn and river didn't improve Martin, and Bartlett is now over 1,000,000.

Meanwhile, Jason Duval fired out 115,000 on the river with the board reading {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}{6-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{4-Clubs} at the other table. Masayuki Nagata raised all in, and Duval wasted no time folding {a-Clubs}{10-Hearts} face up. He knocked over the tower of red T5,000 chips he had bet in disgust as he tossed his cards to the muck.

William Cogan (Day 2) - 14th Place

Dan Martin opened with a raise to 40,000 and action trickled around the table to William Cogan who shipped all in over the top for a little over 200,000. Martin called and the hands were turned over to find the two racing for Cogan's tournament life.

Cogan: {J-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Martin: {k-Spades}{q-Spades}

Martin took the lead by pairing his queen on the {4-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} flop. The {A-Spades} turned and despite the {J-Spades} falling on the river to give Cogan a set, Martin was able to scoop up the pot with his spade flush, eliminating Cogan in 14th place.
