Jeanne David: XxXx/7x8x2x4x
Jaehwa Son: XxXx/7xKxAxAx - folded on sixth street
David bet each street and Son called until a king and running aces forced him to fold, despite his short stack.
"Has anyone said anything about the larger index cards?", Allen Kessler asked PokerNews.
Daniel Negreanu: Ax9x/3xAx8xKx/10x
Will Berry: 5x4x/3x2x7x2x/Jx
Jose Paz-Gutierrez: XxXx/3x8xJx - folded fifth street
In his extremely popular vlog, Daniel Negreanu has shown his affinity for making a delicious-looking berry compote as part of his breakfast routine. So it's quite a unique coincidence that a man named Berry has eliminated him from this event.
Negreanu, Berry, and Jose Paz-Gutierrez each went to fourth street holding a three. Negreanu got his last T-1,000 chip in with the other two, then on fifth street Berry called and Paz-Gutierrez folded.
Berry had already made a seven, leaving Negreanu drawing dead.
John Monnette: XxXx/Qx8xJx8x - folded after fifth street
Scott Adaska: 6x4x9x/Jx5x2x4x
John Cernuto: XxXx/Qx7x8x8x/Xx
Adaska, who just missed the final table in this event in 2007 and 2014, bet on fourth and fifth streets, losing Monette on fifth. Adaska and "Miami" John Cernuto checked sixth and seventh. Adaska turned a 96, and Cernuto could not find a hand in his hole cards to beat him.

Humberto Brenes: Ax3x4x4x7x8xKx
Yuval Bronshtein: Ax2x2x3x5x6xKx
Humberto Brenes made a final stand with his short stack. Unfortunately he paired his fours on fourth and caught a king on sixth, while Bronshtein kept hitting cards to make a six low. Brenes gave a gracious goodbye as his Day 1 came to an end.
Ari Engel: 9x2x/4x10x8xAx/Xx
Ozea Ingram: 6x2x/3x5x7xAx/Kx
Ari Engel was all in on third street versus Ozea Ingram. The hand was over quickly for Engel as by fifth street, Ingram had made a seven that left Engel drawing dead.
Meanwhile, Jake Schwartz was also seen leaving the tournament area.
Hisashi Yamanouchi: XxXx/Ax3x2x
Nick Kiley: XxXx/Kx6x10x - folded on fifth street
Kiley called Yamanouchi's complete after bringing it with the king. He called again on fourth, but watching Yamanouchi continue to catch perfect, sacrificed on fifth.
"I defended my king with honor," said Kiley.
Steve Zolotow Ax2x3x4x6x7x8x
Jeff Madsen: Ax2x5x6x7x8xJx
At-Risk player: 2x3x4x6x7x8xKx
Cards were on their backs on sixth street with Steve Zolotow, who's been battling a very short stack most of the day, all in and at-risk along with another player versus Jeff Madsen.
Zolotow already had a seven-perfect, while Madsen had a seven-six, and the other at-risk player an eight-seven, who couldn't improve enough to catch Zolotow.
Madsen couldn't improve on seventh, drawing a jack, while Zolotow improved to a six-perfect just for good measure.
