Action was picked up in a hand between Brian Hastings in middle position and another player in the hijack.
The flop read A♣K♦9♦ and Hastings checked over to his opponent who bet 8,000 and Hastings called.
On the A♦ turn, action checked through to the 6♠ river where Hastings bet 8,000.
His opponent folded and he stacked up the pot sitting at the same table as young gun Mike Jozoff.
At another table, Lewis Spencer was also eliminated.
Jules Dickerson appears to be the current chip leader and he put the chips to use once more. In a heads-up pot to the 8♣6♣4♣K♠ turn, Dickerson bet 10,000 into 22,000 out of the small blind and his opponent in the cutoff folded.
Ramiro Petrone was in the cutoff and facing an opponent in middle position. The board had already been completed with 5♥7♠6♦5♣A♣ in the middle. The player in middle position checked before Petrone put his opponent all-in for 40,500 effective.
With 48,500 already in the pot, there was a lot to think about for the player in middle position. However, after a few minutes, he let his hand go and Petrone shipped a significant pot without showdown.
A late position player got it in preflop for 92,000 against Boris Kolev. The late position player had A♣K♠ but found himself up against Kolev's A♥A♦.
The late position player caught a king on the flop to make it a little bit of a sweat for Kolev, but blanks on the turn and river kept his aces out front, and Kolev continued his day's work accumulating chips.
"Didn't he know you always have it?" a tablemate asked Kolev.
Nick Schulman made it 3,000 to go and received three callers including Natalia Breviglieri on the button. On the 7♥5♥5♠ flop, Schulman bet 4,000 when checked to and Breviglieri was the only caller. The 6♦ turn saw Schulman check and he then called Breviglieri's bet of 6,500.
Schulman checked again the 3♠ river and Breviglieri bet 20,000. That sent Schulman into the tank and he eventually folded.
Two players remained in the hand as the flop read 4♥4♣10♥.
The small blind checked the action to Sheng Carlos on the button who bet out for 4,000. His opponent opted to check-raise the bet up to 11,000 and Carlos called.
The turn feel the 9♠ and the small blind slowed down. Carlos took the lead with a bet of 25,000 forcing a fold from his opponent.
Tony Reichard and Dingguo Chen went heads-up to the 2♦Q♠5♦ flop where Chen bet 18,000.
Reichard, in the hijack, then shoved all in for 45,000 and Chen went deep in the tank. "Ace-queen of diamonds," he asked Reichard, who remained silent.
Chen eventually folded after several minutes had gone off the clock. "Ask me later and I'll tell you," Reichard said.
"Tell him now," Josh Arieh, who had only recently moved to this table, added.
"One hand beat me on that flop," Reichard replied.
