Sean Winter is down to less than two big blinds after losing the majority of his stack in an all-in confrontation against Robel Andemichael.
While the board had already been washed, Winter was in the small blind with A♥Q♠, which clearly hadn't been able to get there against Andemichael's Q♥Q♦ as the dealer pushed him the pot.
Level: 5
Blinds: 3,000/6,000
Ante: 6,000
Players have been sent on another 15-minute break with the clocks showing 78 entrants so far.
Erik Seidel opened to 11,000 from the hijack and Galen Hall called from the big blind.
Hall check-called a 15,000 bet from Seidel on the A♥J♣K♣ flop. Both players checked the 10♠ turn.
When the 6♠ fell on the river Hall fired a small bet of 13,000. Seidel called and showed A♦J♠ for two pair which was enough to beat the 10♣J♦ that Hall had for a lower two pair.
Sam Snead was all in and at risk from the big blind against under-the-gun player Yang Wang, who had his opponent covered.
Sam Snead: A♠J♠
Yang Wang: 6♦6♣
Wang had a lock on the hand as the flop landed 6♥9♣9♥ to give him sixes full before the brick runout of Q♦J♥ marked Snead's elimination.
Jake Schindler opened to 10,000 in middle position and Sam Snead three-bet to 25,000 in the hijack. Action folded to Romain Lewis in the big blind, who went in the tank before cold four-bet jamming with both players covered.
Schindler and Snead both folded to hold onto their respective stacks of around 270,000.
Chris Hunichen raised to 11,000 from late position and received a call from a player on the button before Kevin Rabichow moved all in for his remaining 59,000. Hunichen got out of the way and the player on the button called to put Rabichow at risk.
Button: 6♣6♦
Kevin Rabichow: A♠10♣
Rabichow flopped two-pair on the A♦10♦7♠ flop and remained ahead on the 7♥ turn and 9♦ river to secure the double up and scoop a healthy pot.
Isaac Haxton was put to the test for his tournament life in a heads-up pot against Sam Snead.
With the board reading 5♠Q♠10♣A♠3♥, Snead moved all in with Haxton covered and the recent bracelet winner considered calling off for his final 157,000. Eventually, the Event #16: $25,000 High Roller winner called.
Snead tabled 8♣7♥ for a stone bluff as Haxton tabled K♣J♣ for Broadway to double up.
Action was picked up on the flop with the board showing 9♦8♦6♦ and about 150,000 already in the pot. Kristen Foxen bet 45,000 and called when Yang Wang raised to 90,000.
Both players checked the 4♥ turn. On the Q♣ river Foxen checked again and Wang moved all in with a covering stack.
Foxen thought about her decision for about 30 seconds before making the call.
Wang showed A♥7♥ for a missed straight draw turned river bluff while Foxen showed K♣9♠ for just second pair which was enough to take down a huge pot and secure a full double up.
"Better than watching on tv," Sam Snead, who was also at the table said. "That was amazing."
