Andrew "The Animal" Mackenzie raised to 6,000 under the gun and a player two to his left tossed in 8,000, not seeing his raise. He was forced to reraise to 9,000 and the action folded back to Mackenzie who jammed all-in for 25,000. His opponent called.
Andrew Mackenzie: A♣A♥
Opponent: A♠5♣
The dealer ran out the J♥9♣8♦J♠K♥ board, and Mackenzie's aces were good as he pulled in the pot.
Eva Yvette was facing an all-in wager from Ben Yu for less than a starting stack. At first instinct, Yvette asked for a count and quickly shook off her own question, as she said she was calling.
Ben Yu: K♠J♣
Eva Yvette: A♣A♦
The flop came the K♣5♦Q♥, which prompted Yvette out of her seat to sweat the turn and river, which came the 8♥ and the 7♥ to secure another pot in her favor. It seems it wasn't the first one she had scooped in the last while, as Yvette is amongst the chip leaders.
With about 20,000 in the middle, the board read K♥6♦3♥7♦Q♣ and there was a bet of 8,500 before Jim Lienbach raised 23,000. His opponent tanked for about 20 seconds and called to see the bad news as Lienbach tabled Q♥Q♦ for a set of queens.
Three players were seen with all of the chips in the middle and Ian Steinman was at risk for 31,500, while the second player was at risk for about 93,000 and Rachel Delatorre was looking for the double Elimination.
Ian Steinman: K♣J♣
Opponent: A♥Q♦
Rachel Delatorre: A♦K♦
The board ran out 6♣5♥4♥K♣J♥, giving Steinman two pair to triple, while Delatorre made a pair of kings to win the side pot and eliminate the third player in the hand.
Shortly after, Steinman flopped trips to drag another pot.

As retold by Andrew Dubuque:
A player opened in early position to 6,000 and Andrew Dubuque called, followed by another call.
On the 7♣6♣2♠ flop, the action checked to the player in late position who jammed all-in, the preflop raiser moved all-in as well and Dubuque called.
Late Position: 9x9x
Early Position: Kx7x
Andrew Dubuque: 10x10x
The board ran out clean for Dubuque as the 8x hit the turn and the 3x on the river.
