"This is the pot for this table," we heard Mike "The Mouth" Matusow shout. We made our way over to discover a big three-way stud hi-low pot in progress. There was about 60,000 in the middle as the three players went to seventh street. Dutch Boyd checked, as did Michael Chow, and Robert Mizrachi bet 5,000. Boyd called off his last 2,000 while Chow opted to preserve the 3,000 he had behind.
Chow : /

Mizrachi:

"Queens up," Mizrachi said and tabled queens and fives.
"Queens up is good," a crestfallen Boyd said before sending his cards to the dealer and bowing out in 54th place.

Thomas Butzhammer completed and then called the three bet of a short stack to 5,000. The latter bet 2,500 on fourth and 5,000 on fifth with another 2,200 behind. Butzhammer put him to the test and both players turned over their cards.
Butzhammer:

Both players were fortunate, Butzhammer for spiking the better two pair on sixth and the opponent for hitting the low on seventh. Chop it up!

Ismael Bojang was just trying to rep a flush while betting from third to fifth street before him and Allyn Jaffrey Shulman checked sixth. Bojang bet seventh and Shulman was a little worried about a flush but ultimately called with rolled up aces.

The pot was chopped but it was close to a scoop for the German if he had improved on seventh. He is still down a lot since the level started.

In the last hand of the round, Greg Pappas, who finished third in Event #7: $1,500 Seven-Card Razz for $48,275, opened for 5,000 under the gun and Julie Schneider, who was to his direct left, made the call. Action then folded to Ming Reslock, the wife of Chris Reslock (who is also in the tournament), and she called from the big blind to make it three-way action to the flop.
Reslock wasted little time in leading out for 2,500, and it did the trick as both Pappas and Schneider folded. Reslock then flashed 
for a flopped flush.
"I had the ace of spades," Pappas admitted. "It's the first time I've had two aces in this entire tournament." Too bad he wasn't able to win with them.
