Hand #31: Jamie Armstrong raised to 80,000 from the cutoff, Andy Phan called from the button, and the flop came down {k-Spades}{a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}, which they both checked. When the {a-Spades} appeared on the turn, action once again went check-check and the {6-Hearts} completed the board on the river. Phan opted to lead out for 200,000 and Armstrong called. Phan tabled {k-}{j-} for a full house, and it was good enough to win the pot.

Hand #32: Jamie Armstrong opened for 80,000 from the hijack, Matt Salsberg called from the small blind, and the flop came down {5-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. Two checks brought about the {K-Hearts}, and Salsberg led out for 75,000. Armstrong called and the {8-Hearts} completed the board on the river. Both players checked and Armstrong tabled {k-}{q-} for a pair of kings and the win.

Hand #33: Thad McNulty raised to 80,000 under the gun, Justin Oliver called from the big blind, and the flop came down {9-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{a-Diamonds}. Oliver checked, McNulty bet 110,000, and Oliver folded.

Hand #34: Pierre Milan moved all in for 325,000 from the button and Thad McNulty called him from the big blind.

Milan: {k-Clubs}{7-Hearts}
McNulty: {5-Clubs}{5-Spades}

The {8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{10-Clubs} flop kept McNulty in the lead, as did the 4s turn. McNulty was on his feet, but was devastated when the {7-Diamonds} spiked on the river to give Milan the winning hand.
