Stud Hi-Lo
Daniel Negreanu has been quietly building his stack after re-entering earlier, and found himself at showdown with Nick Guagenti.
Daniel Negreanu: 
/ 
Nick Guagenti: 
/ 
Negreanu led out after hitting a pair of aces on fourth street and Guagenti called, with the action repeating through seventh street. Negreanu's final bet of 6,000 was called, and he turned over two pair and a 7-5-4-2-A low to scoop the pot.
A total of 319 entries created a prize pool of $709,775. The tournament will pay 48 spots with a min cash worth $4,064, while the champion will take home the WSOP gold bracelet and $168,608.
Eli Elezra has had a good day building a healthy stack of 161,000 as of this writing. If he can keep this going for another couple of hours, he'll be taking a nice bag of chips into Day 2 Friday afternoon.
One small problem though.
He's also got a 45 big blind bag awaiting him in Friday's Day 2 of the Seniors Event!
Play for that begins at 10:00 am local time, so with play in the nine-game event ending around 2:00 am, it could be a short night of sleep and a long day of double-dipping ahead for the hall of fame nominee.
Shortly before the break, John Racener went all-in on his first bullet and found one caller.

Opponent: 
Racener found no help on the 
runout, and quickly left the tournament area to re-enter.
Others joining Racener as late entries include Nam Le, Brett Richey, Roland Israelashvili and Tony Hartmann.
As level nine begins, late registration has closed. Phil Hellmuth was eliminated on his second and final bullet right before the break.
Payouts will be posted as soon as they become available.

Pot-Limit Omaha
The last level before re-entry closes can bring some crazy pots, and this was certainly the case at table 532.
Randy Ohel, Adam Friedman and Kao Saechao each got almost 70,000 in preflop, with Ohel at risk.
Randy Ohel: 
Adam Friedman: 
Kao Saechao: 
The board ran out 
, with Saechao making a runner-runner straight to eliminate Ohel and put Friedman on fumes.
Ohel had the ability to re-enter, but Friedman will have to run his stack up if he's to survive.
