No-Limit Hold'em

Richard Kellett raised under the gun to 250,000 and picked up a call from Aden Salazar next to him.

A {q-Diamonds} came on the river and this time they both checked. Kellett showed {10-Spades}{8-Spades} for the straight and Salazar sent {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts} into the muck.

William Leffingwell

Pot-Limit Omaha

Richard Kellett opened from early position to 250,000. William Leffingwell, in late position, and Aden Salazar, in the hijack, both called.

On the {4-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} flop, Kellett checked to Leffingwell who bet the pot. Salazar got out of the way before Kellett moved all in and Leffingwell snap called as the player at risk.

William Leffingwell: {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}
Richard Kellett: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}

Kellett was ahead with his aces, the {3-Spades} turn was of no help to Leffingwell. The {6-Hearts} on the river gave Kellet the nut flush, and Leffingwell was sent to the rail in 8th place, while Kellett's hot streak continues as his stack now trails only Salazar.

No-Limit Hold'em

Aden Salazar opened from early position for 260,000. Action folded around to Daniel Chuprun in the big blind. He thought for a minute or so, before moving all in for around 1,000,000. Salazar made the snap call and the cards were on their backs.

Daniel Chuprun: {k-Spades}{j-Spades}
Aden Salazar: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}

Chuprun was behind, but had plenty of hope with two over cards. The {2-Spades}{3-Hearts}{6-Clubs} flop was of no help, and neither were the {9-Hearts} turn or {q-Hearts} river, which cemented the pot for Salazar. Chuprun was sent to the rail, the first elimination of this final table.
