Following the draw, Rep Porter had fired 13,000 in position but Don Mcnamara put the ball back in Porter's court, shoving for around 54,000. Porter tanked for a bit and then went for it. Unfortunately for him, Mcnamara had it, revealing

Bjorn Geissert had made it 2,500 from early position when Daniel Negreanu three-bet to 12,500 out of the big blind. Geissert jammed for his 27,000 and Negreanu didn't like it. He took about a minute to process his thoughts and then decided to let his hand go.

Round 2 for Craig Chait and Frank Kassela: 20,000 in yellow chips was in front of Kassela and silence reigned for a brief moment on their table. Kassela did not have much more than 20,000 total and considered for a minute before calling. Chait showed which beat Kassela's nine.

Jen Harman raised to 3,000 in the middle position and Galen Hall three-bet to 10,500 from the next seat. It returned to Harman who took her time before announcing a raise, putting forward 34,000. Hall matched the price and both players stood pat.
Harman thought for a bit and tapped the felt and Hall did the same, prompting a showdown. Harman turned up [9x8x6x5x2] and Hall studied the hand for a brief moment to make sure he had the winner. Then he rolled over and claimed the hefty pot.
A few moments before the above-mentioned encounter, Ajay Chabra took all of Aaron Mermelstein's chips to vault to around 150,000.
Having dropped a ways from his start-of-day 80,000 stack, Galen Hall tangled with Daniel Negreanu as Level 11 ticked down its last minutes. Negreanu had bet 10,000, and Hall raised to 19,000. After checking the raise size, Negreanu made the call and Hall showed down
