On a 
flop we saw Justin Young bet out 800 from the big blind. His first opponent shoved for 3,250 and two other players folded. Young made the call but would soon find out his 
was behind. His opponent showed 
and would hold with the 
on the turn and 
on the river. Justin Young is down to about 6,000.

Tristan Wade opened to 425 from the cut off but would play the hand out of position as the only caller was seated right next to him on the button. Wade made a 400 continuation bet on 
and received an immediate call. The action on the turn took more time as Wade checked the 
. The player on the button made it 700 and Wade check-raised to 1,800. The call was again almost instant and the dealer put out the 
as the river. Wade glanced at his stack and he looked ready to shove. In the end he changed his mind though, and checked. The button instantly announced all in and had Wade covered. Wade thought about it for a minute before eventually folding.

A player raised all in to 1,250 from under the gun with 
. Action folded to David "Bakes" Baker in the small blind who made the call with more holding 
. Enter the flop in the lead, Baker was not happy to see 
pairing his opponent's one over card. The 
turn and river did not help Baker and he doubled his opponent leaving with him with just 9 big blinds.

Humberto Brenes raised all in from early position for his last 1,575. A player in middle position called and when the hands were tabled, it was race time.

Middle Position: 
Apparently, the shark needs to swim a little faster as a ten rolled off on the 
flop. Brenes was looking for a jack but didn't find one on the 
turn or 
river and he hit the rail earlier than he would of liked.

Giving us an average stack of 6,883 chips (34 big blinds).
Coming off his fifth-place finish in Event #26: $1,000 Seniors No-Limit Hold'em Championship, Mark Kroon is back on the felt hoping to better his finish and get some gold.
Kroon and his sidekick Larry Wright, who finished 26th in that event, entertained the field and rail alike with their fun banter and witty comments. It should be noted they both played some pretty impressive poker to weave their way through that record field of over 4,400 players.
It is currently a little quiet in Kroon's corner but we know from experience that won't last long.
