A short-stacked Jan Sjavik raised and action folded to Brian Aleksa in the big blind. He mulled for awhile and it became apparent he wasn't a fan of his hand. Nonetheless, he felt obliged to three-bet so Sjavik could get all in for a mere 19,000.
Sjavik: 
Aleksa: 
Aleksa perked up a bit when he discovered that he was drawing to live cards, but that enthusiasm faded quickly as the board ran out a dry

flop saw Bonomo check, Yu bet and Bonomo spring to life with a check-raise. Yu made the call and then called bets on both the turn and 
river.
Bonomo rolled over the

It took about 20 minutes for the first elimination of the day, and it was no surprise that it was the short stack to fall. Jeffrey Yass managed a couple of doubles at the start of play, but it proved too little too late for the man from Haverford, Pennsylvania.
His demise came on a 
flop when Yass bet, Justin Bonomo raised and Yass three-bet. Bonomo made the call and then raised when Yass bet the 
turn. Yass called off his last chips holding the 
for a pair of queens, which was out in front of Bonomo's flush and straight draws. Unfortunately for Yass, the spiked on the river to give Bonomo the flush and the win.
