Level 13 : Limits 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

John Elliott opened in the cutoff and both Phil Hellmuth, and Bradley Webert called in the blinds.

When the 10♠9♣2♦ flop hit the felt, Hellmuth took the lead firing a bet. Webert folded but Elliott made the call.

The 4♦ landed on the turn, and Hellmuth continued with another bet. Elliott called to see the 4♣ river.

Hellmuth slowed down this time with a check, and went in the tank after facing a bet from Elliott. After about 30 seconds, Hellmuth mucked his hand.

"I almost called you down with king-high," Hellmuth said as the dealer began to shuffle.

After a raise and a call preflop, Phillip Gallegos continued on a flop of 9♥9♦6♦ after a check from Brock Parker, who called.

The turn was the 6♥, double pairing the board, and again Parker checked, Gallegos bet, and Parker called.

On the river 2♦, Parker checked, Gallegos fired again, and Parker called once more.

Gallegos then tabled 7♣7♥ for nines and sevens, and Parker quickly mucked to award him the pot.

Level 13 : Limits 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

Short-stacked Shyamsundar Challa was able to get all of his chips in preflop and Christopher Vitch quickly called to put him at risk.

Shyamsundar Challa: A♠10♥
Christopher Vitch: K♣K♠

Challa was in bad shape against Vitch's kings, but the runout of 6♦7♦3♥A♥7♣ gave him a much-needed ace on the turn to save his tournament life.

Trips No Good Against Anderson

Kirk Brown

Level 14 : Limits 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

On a heads-up flop of K♥7♦8♥, Blake Hernandez checked, Calvin Anderson bet, Hernandez raised, and Anderson called.

On the turn 6♠, Hernandez bet, Anderson raised, and Hernandez called.

The river was the 8♣, pairing the board, and Hernandez checked, Anderson bet, and Hernandez raised. Andersn rolled his eyes and made the call, which prompted Hernandez to show J♥8♠ for rivered trips, but it was still no good when Anderson rolled over 9♦10♣ for a turned straight to take down the pot.

Level 14 : Limits 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

With the 7♠6♥6♣ flop on the felt, Jason Daly checked, as did Florian Pesce before Al-Karim Lalani tossed a bet across the line. Only Pesce made the call.

The 2♥ hit the turn, and Pesce check-called another bet from Lalani.

When the A♣ completed the board on the river, Pesce took the lead, firing a bet. Lalani put in a raise and Pesce responded with a re-raise. Lalani called.

Pesce tabled A♥Q♦ making aces and sixes with a queen-kicker, and Lalani flashed the A♦ before mucking his hand.

Level 14 : Limits 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

Al-Karim Lalani was all-in from the big blind versus Jason Daly on the button for around 12,000 and at risk.

Al-Karim Lalani: J♥J♣ All in
Jason Daly: A♠3♦

The board ran out 7♦A♥J♦5♥A♦ for Lalani to flop a set and complete it to a full house on the river to double up to get his stack back up to around 35,000 but then lost it all shortly after.
