Yesterday, Kenneth Kemple won with pocket queens versus pocket kings late in the day to stay alive in the tournament. Looking down at Q♠Q♦ again, he raised it up and was met by a three-bet shove from Jordan Schneible.
Kemple called it off and Schneible flipped over A♥K♣ for the classic race. The board came down A♦J♦4♦5♣J♣ and Kemple had to fork over a sizable portion of his stack.

The tournament was paused briefly to relocate players to another room.
A tense pot brewed between Brittany Spain in the big blind and Scott Sommer in late position.
The two went heads up to a A♦10♥4♣ flop. Spain checked to Sommer who bet 175,000 and Spain made the call. The A♥ turn checked around to the A♠ river. Spain checked again to Sommer who bet 400,000. Spain tanked briefly before finally making the call.
Sommer announced "full house" and turned over J♠10♠. Spain tossed her hand into the muck.

After the players moved from the Horseshoe Event Center to the Ballroom, Yun Choi raised from the cutoff to 200,000. Michael Judge shoved all in on the button for about a million straight, and Choi quickly called it off.
Michael Judge: A♠10♥ 
Yun Choi: 7♥7♣
The 7♦4♠3♣ flop all but sealed it, making the J♠ turn and 10♠ river a formality.

On a Q♦5♣4♦ flop, Jun Li checked to Rami Ilyasov who bet 250,000. Seated in the small blind, Li check-raised to 700,000 and Ilyasov called.
Li quickly went all in for 1,415,000 on the 8♣ turn and Ilyasov snapped him off.
Jun Li: 5♦5♠
Rami Ilyasov: A♣Q♣
Ilyasov groaned after seeing Li tabling a set of fives. With his top pair being dead, he still had the clubs as outs but bricked the J♦ river to be left with crumbs.
