In what began innocently enough as a limped blind versus blind pot, Efthymia Litsou in the small blind and Jimmy Setna in the big blind, checked the flop and turn of a 
board.
On the river, Litsou led out for 400,000 and was met with a raise to 1,900,000 from Setna.

for a turned full house, putting a dent in Litsou's stack just before dinner.
Asher Conniff raised it up to 800,000 in the cutoff in the final hand before the dinner break and Matthew Su called on the button. The

Matthew Su won a small three-way pot and then defended out of the big blind when Asher Conniff raised to 1,100,000 in the small blind. Both elected to check the 
flop and the 
followed on the turn. No betting action took place either, which then led to the 
on the river.
Conniff then bet 750,000 and Su folded to see the rail of the birthday boy erupt in celebration.
Philippe Souki raised to 800,000 in early position and was called by Brian Kim on his left and Robert Welch in the big blind. The flop came 
and Souki continued with a bet of 2,500,000 which got folds from both of his opponents.
A couple of hands later, Welch opened 950,000 on the button and Souki defended from the big blind. The flop fell 
and Souki check-called a bet of 1,200,000 from Welch.

and Souki checked again. Welch splashed in a bet of 2,250,000 and Souki finally dumped his cards into the muck.

Attenborough checked to the preflop raiser after the 
flop and then called when Duek continued for 1,000,000.

Kamal Bittar moved all in for his 4,100,000 chips under the gun and Aaron Mermelstein called in middle position.
Kamal Bittar: 
Aaron Mermelstein:
Bittar was racing for his tournament life, and the 
flop vaulted him into the lead. The 
turn meant he just needed to fade one of the two sevens in the deck, but the spiked the river as the crowd reacted accordingly at the sight of the rollercoaster runout, and Bittar made his way to the payout desk in 26th place for $323,100.
Evan Krentzman raised it up to 800,000 in the hijack and Mayank Madan then took 79 seconds in the small blind before he three-bet to 2,950,000. Once it folded back to Krentzman, he required four seconds fewer to send his cards into the muck.
John Eames then made it 800,000 to go from the under-the-gun position and Matthew Su called. Krentzman popped it back up to 3,200,000 after 62 seconds and it folded back to Eames. Karim Rebei in the big blind seemed interested but folded after more than a minute, Eames and Su also got out of the way.
Kamal Bittar opened to 1,000,000 from early position only to see Adrian Attenborough three-bet jam for 10,300,000 from the cutoff. Action folded back around to Bittar who made the call to put Attenborough at risk.
Adrian Attenborough:
Kamal Bittar: 
Though at risk, Attenborough had his opponent dominated and was in a good spot to get the full double. He did just that after the board ran out 
to keep his ace high with the superior kicker ahead.
Espen Jorstad raised to 900,000 in the hijack and was called by Efthymia Litsou in the big blind.

river, Litsou checked, and Jorstad cut out a bet of 2,600,000.
