Erick Lindgren raised to 3,000 under the gun and was called by Ken Aldridge in the seat next to him. The 6♣7♣K♣ flop was checked by both players before Lindgren fired 8,000 on the 4♠ turn.
Aldridge made a quick call and did so too when Lindgren bet 25,000 on the 4♣ river.
Lindgren tabled A♦A♣J♥9♥2♥ for aces up and the nut low, but Aldridge played A♥8♠7♦5♥2♣ for the same low with a straight, giving him three quarters of the pot.
Mike Matusow in the big blind and Naoya Kihara under the gun were on a completed board of K♠8♠K♦9♥2♣. With 8,500 chips gathered preflop, each player had put in 4,000 chips on the flop and 10,000 on the turn.
On the river, Matusow made a bet of 25,000 chips, sending Kihara in the tank. Eventually, the Japanese player folded, shipping the pot to "The Mouth."

Farid Jattin in the small blind had three-bet Kristopher Burchfield in the cutoff. The action folded back to Burchfield, who four-bet to 50,500 chips. Jattin made the call for the K♠5♣2♦ flop to be fanned out.
Jattin led all in for around a quarter of the pot and received a snap call from Burchfield, who was the one at risk.
Kristopher Burchfield: A♥A♦9♠9♦3♥ 
Farid Jattin: A♠K♥K♣Q♥5♦
Jattin had flopped a set to crack Burchfield's aces, and his hand remained best on the J♥9♣ runout, sending Burchfield home early on Day 1.
Ken Aldridge check-called a bet of 4,500 from Joao Vieira on a flop of 2♠J♥10♦.
Aldridge checked the Q♠ turn only to face a bet of 15,000 from Vieira. This bet was met by a quick fold from Aldrige.
