Yuya Kita opened to 1,700 from early position and both Gregory Dillmann next to act and the big blind made the call.
The flop came K♣10♠8♣ and the big blind checked to Kita, who continued for 1,600, which only Dillmann called.
On the 4♣ turn, Kita checked his option to Dillmann, who tossed out a bet of 4,000. Kita quickly folded and the pot was sent to Dillmann.
A player opened to 2,000 in early position and action folded to David Moses on the button who three bet to 6,000 which saw the initial raiser call.
The flop came out K♠Q♣5♣ and both players checked to the 6♥ turn where the early position player bet 6,500 and Moses called.
On the 3♥ river, the early position player bet 7,800 and Moses responded by moving all in for 59,400 effective and his opponent went into the tank.
"I actually have something," he lamented while Moses stayed silent, donning his iconic grinch hat. After some more time, the other player flashed a K♣ and tossed his hand into the muck while the bracelet winner raked in the pot to add to his growing stack.
The pot stood at approximately 60,000 with two players remaining in the hand.
Vasken Ken Demlakian open jammed for his remaining 74,300 from the big blind on a board that read 6♠9♠Q♠8♥.
Anil Jivani, in early position, went deep into the tank. Jivani thought on this decision for several minutes, toying with both his chips and his cards, before finally throwing in a stack to signify a call.
Vasken Ken Demlakian: 10♣10♠
Anil Jivani: K♥K♠
The river landed the 3♥ sending the pot to Jivani and Demlakian to the rail.
With 2♥J♦9♣2♣6♦ showing, the button bet 2,400. Jinwoo Kim snapped it off, and showed K♥9♥, raking in another big pot.
According to the table, Patrick Popowski and Asher Neaman were heads-up in a raised pot with a flop showing J♥7♥2♥. Neaman check-called a bet from Popowski for 6,000.
On the Q♥ turn, Popowski sent another bet for 8,700 after it was checked to him and Neaman check-raised to 20,000. Popowski made the call and Neaman announced he was all in blind on the river.
When the Q♠ hit the river, Neaman actually shoved for his last 47,000 and Popowski called all in with less.
Neaman tabled A♥K♦ for the nut flush and Popowski showed 9x9x before making his way to the exit.
Tony Miles raised to 1,600 and earned two callers including Jason Coppens in the big blind. The J♥4♥3♦ flop was checked to Miles, who bet 2,000 and Coppens was the only caller. After the Q♥ turn, Coppens check-called another 5,000 and the 8♦ river was checked.
Miles tabled his Q♦10♦ and that won the pot.
Jean-Pierre van der Spuy grabbed the chip lead on Day 1b, but his chip stack had already been mostly demolished, with just 35,000 chips remaining, when the action was caught.
Thomas Galusha then went all-in for around 15,000 from the cutoff and Van der Spuy called from the small blind.
Thomas Galusha: KxQx
Jean-Pierre van der Spuy: 10♠10♣
Galusha flopped a pair on 8♦Q♣A♠ and that would remain the best hand when the turn fell the 8♣ and the 6♦ river completed the board.
Another hit for Van der Spuy's stack as he now only plays roughly 25 big blinds. Meanwhile, Lawrence Chang has also lost some chips, while Jules Dickerson seems to be the biggest beneficiary of the chip trading, and is nearing the 400,000 mark.
A player in the hijack opened to 1,600 and Ryan Feldman three-bet to 4,200 from the cutoff, receiving a call from the initial opener.
The flop came 7♥5♦3♥. The hijack checked, Feldman made a continuation bet of 3,000 and the hijack made the call.
The hijack check-called another bet from Feldman on the 10♠ turn, this time for 5,100. Both players checked the 9♦ river.
The hijack turned over K♠5♠ for fourth pair and Feldman turned over 8♣7♣ for a pair of sevens to take down a decent pot.
