Thomas Schropfer raised to 7,000 and Bryce Yockey reraised to 25,500. Schropfer four-bet, putting Yockey at risk for his tournament and the latter snap-called:
Bryce Yockey:
Thomas Schropfer:
The dealer fanned a board , giving a straight to Yockey but a full house to Schropfer and Yockey made his way to the cashier.
Veselin Karakitukov opened from the button to 6,000 and received calls from Iaron Lightbourne in the small blind and Krzysof Magott in the big blind. All three players checked the flop .
The turn came and action checked to Karakitukov who bet 18,000. Lightbourne folded and Magott stuck around.
The river was and Magott checked again. Karakitukov bet 39,000 after about a minute and then Magott went into the tank for a bit before letting his hand go.

The flop came and Lehr and Smith checked. The turn brought a and Smith folded after a bet from Lehr.

Benny Glaser:
William Kakon:
Kakon had flopped top two pair to Glaser's pair of jacks. He was in need of running cards to stay alive and the turn brought to give him outs at a gutshot straight. However, the river would be his final card of the tournament as the bubble burst and Glaser was sent home sans a payout.
The flop read when Charles Coutlas checked in the small blind and so did Millard Hale on the button.
The turn brought the and Coutlas checked once more before calling a bet of 5,000 from Hale. The same action happened on the river, this time for 12,000 and Hale showed for trips sevens. Coutlas tabled for trips eights took down the pot.

John Richards:
Leng had the nut straight and needed to fade clubs to double up and avoid being the last unpaid casualty of the tournament. The turn and river secured that double, coming and play continues with the bubble now spanning two-thirds of a level.
