Level 6 : 200/400, 100 ante

Pot-Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

Max Kruse needed to hit on the final draw against Jan Suchanek to stay in the tournament. Suchanek had made his eight with {8-}{7-}{6-}{5-}{3-}, but it was the worst eight and Kruse was drawing live with {8-}{5-}{4-}{2-}

As he peeled he told the table that it was a no-spotter, but it was an ace and he was eliminated.

Level 6 : 200/400, 100 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

In a four-way limped pot on {10-Spades}{4-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}, it checked to David "ODB" Baker who bet 1,400 and Max Pescatori raised pot. The other two players folded.

Baker wrestled with his decision before open-mucking {q-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} for two pair.

"You were behind," said Pescatori, who chipped up to more than double starting stack.

Level 6 : 200/400, 100 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

On a {6-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{7-Spades} board, Dan Zack bet 1,500 and John Racener quickly called.

Zack pointed at Racener who obligingly turned over {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{j-Hearts}{7-Clubs} for two pair and Zack rechecked his hand before mucking.

Racener's stack of over 50,000 looks like it could be among the chip leaders in the room.

No-Limit 5 Card Draw

It folded around to Alex Foxen on the big blind. Foxen put in a bet of 1,200 and Adam Owen pushed all-in for 9,525. Foxen decided on a call and Owen announced he was drawing three. Foxen drew two and they opened up their hands.

Adam Owen: {J-}{J-}{J-}
Alex Foxen: {K-}{K-}

Owen immediately opened up {Q-}{5-} and Foxen needed to catch a king. He revealed the {8-} and {2-} so his only hope was the final card he was dealt, but that was the {4-} to double up Owen.

Both players drew one.

Dan Zack: {10-}{8-}{7-}{3-}
Anthony Zinno: {9-}{8-}{3-}{2-}

"Draw a ten," said Zack, and Zinno drew a {10-}. Zack peeled his card revealing that he was 50:50.

He turned over a {3-} to pair and Zinno doubled up.
