Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
With about 120,000 in the middle, the flop read 3♥3♦2♣. Dakota Britton tossed out a bet of 55,000, forcing Zachary Zaret to quickly fold and the action was now on Jennifer Lin.
Lin looked at the clock as she seemingly had a decision and eventually pushed her entire stack of roughly 150,000 across the line. Britton instantly tossed his cards into the muck as the dealer shipped the pot to Lin on the bubble.

Lon McEachern nursed a short stack to successfully cash this year's Tournament of Champions, then moved all-in shortly after the bubble burst when it folded around to him on the button, for his remaining 7,000.
Jennifer Lin called from the small blind, as well as, Jason Somerville from the big blind, and both players checked down a board of 6♣7♣6♠6♥4♥.
Lon McEachern: 5♣5♥
Jennifer Lin: Q♥7♥
Jason Somerville: X♠X♥
Unfortunately for McEachern, Lin's full house would best his, eliminating one of poker's most recognizable voices in 97th place.
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Shouyi Gao raised to 10,000 in the cutoff before Jay Hoebe jammed his last 50,000 in the middle from the small blind. The big blind quickly got out of the way and Gao made the call.
Jay Hoebe: Q♣Q♠
Shouyi Gao: K♥J♥
Hoebe was looking to fade the overcard but the king came in the window as the dealer fanned a flop of K♣9♥2♥. The 6♥ landed on the turn, giving Gao a flush draw as well and Hoebe couldn't find the off-suit queen as the 2♣ completed the board.

: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Anatoly Zharnitsky raised under the gun only finding one customer in the big blind; Christopher Lawrence.
On a board of J♥4♦7♣ Zharnitsky, once checked to, continued for 14,000. Lawrence called.
The 4♣ turn saw the hand check through to the A♦ on the river. This passive turn action prompted Lawrence to take the lead betting 25,000, just enough to get a fold from Zharnitsky.

Pete Chen raised to 12,000 from early position and Karapet Galstyan moved all-in for 94,000 from middle position. Action folded around to Michael Sabbia in the big blind and a count of Galstyan's chips was requested. Sabbia called the all-in, with Chen moving all-in himself right behind, and then Sabbia calling that all-in, as well.
Karapet Galstyan: A♠K♣
Pete Chen: K♦K♠
Michael Sabbia: A♦A♥
Sabbia's aces were in a great position to score a double knock-out and move him into one of the top chip positions, but the case king landed on a flop of 5♦K♥8♣ and provided Chen with top set, quickly reducing the aces to needing the one remaining ace in the deck in order pull back ahead.
However, it was not to be as the turn 4♥ and river 4♠ would give Chen a near triple-up.
Level 16
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Zachary Gruneberg raised to 13,000 under-the-gun and was looked up by Melinda Harris in the cutoff, as well as Brian Gatliff in the big blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of 8♣3♠2♠ and Gatliff checked to Gruneberg as he tossed in a bet of 24,000. Both Harris and Gatliff made the call.
The 5♣ hit the turn and once checked to, Gruneberg continued for 47,000. Harris tossed her cards in the muck and after only a short pause, Gatliff made the call.
The 4♣ landed on the river and Gatliff checked for a final time. Gruneberg hesitated for a brief moment before checking back as he announced he had a straight. Gruneberg tabled A♥8♥ for the top pair on the flop, which turned into a straight on the river. Gatliff sighed as he tabled 5♦4♦ for two pair.
Level 16
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Kenny Huynh started the proceedings with a raise to 12,000 picking up two callers from the button and the big blind.
No player seemed overly enthused by the flop of 4♣Q♠4♦ as the action checked through to the K♣ on the turn. The big blind once again checked allowing Huynh to take the lead for 26,000. The button folded and the big blind called.
The big blind checked a final time on the 5♣ river. Huynh fired out a bet of 64,000 sending his opponent deep into the tank, finally settling on folding.
