Stud 8
Brian Rast, Jeff Madsen, and Bradley Ruben, with a combined 12 bracelets between them, surround a corner on one table.
It would be Rast who was involved in the latest hand on this formidable table. He bet enough on third street to put Bob Mather and another player all in while building a side pot with a fourth opponent.
Rast called a bet on fifth street, then led out on sixth which forced a fold. He ended up with 
for a pair of jacks. Mather, who had already put on his backpack and stood up from the table, showed 
for the wheel to secure a quadruple-up, while the other all-in player was eliminated.

A-5 Triple Draw
Four players, including defending champion Jaswinder Lally, Lou Perrone, and David Williams, went to the first draw. Lally and Perrone drew two, while Williams took three.
Perrone bet and all three opponents called. He took one, as did Lally, while Williams again took three. This time, Lally bet out and only Perrone called.
Lally stood pat while Perrone drew one. Perrone looked at his last card in disgust before throwing his hand away after Lally bet. Lally showed the as he took the pot.
