Level 17 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Benny Glaser raised the pot to 42,000 with a stack of around 130,000 and Eric Liu in the small blind then potted to 138,000. After some consideration, Glaser called all-in.

Eric Liu: A♦A♣9♠4♦

The aces held on a board of Q♦10♣8♦2♥3♥ and Glaser was the second casualty in quick succession on his table, as Ka Kwan Lau had vanished a few minutes earlier.

Mark Liedtke was unable to spin up his short stack and headed to the payout desk to collect a min-cash. Moments later, Corey Wright followed him to the rail as well.

Danny Tang raised to 40,000 from under the gun and Wright called all-in for 3,000. Nitesh Rawtani tank-folded and Nino Pansier let go from the big blind.

Corey Wright: K♣8♣7♦6♠ All in
Danny Tang: A♦Q♥Q♠2♠

"I had ace-king-jack-trey," Rawtani mentioned in table chat.

The board ran out A♠J♣3♥8♦9♥ and Wright was gone, too.

Christian Zetzsche

Level 17 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Naoya Kihara got his short stack into the middle with the Q♥J♦9♠6♥ when the action resumed and he was up against Austin Apicella with the A♣A♠Q♠8♦.

The board ran out 8♥3♠3♣7♦7♠ and that spelled the end for Kihara. Shortly after, Ryan Leng also yelled "payout" after he had busted from a table nearby.

In the meanwhile, Huilin Chen was all-in for 3,000 and Corey Wright for just 4,000. They both survived against Marco Johnson to potentially make for a fantastic chip and a chair comeback story.

Austin Apicella	350,000 53,000	53,000

Level 17 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Marcello Del Grosso was all in from the big blind for his final few chips and was looked up by Adam Lamphere on the button and Kristopher Burchfield in the small blind.

Lamphere and Burchfield then checked down their hands on the
9♥10♥5♣9♣A♦ board and all three were tabled.

Marcello Del Grosso: Q♠Q♣J♠8♦ All in
Kristopher Burchfield: Q♥7♦6♠5♦
Adam Lamphere: Q♦9♠6♦4♠

Lamphere made trip nines to best the queens of Del Grosso, who had also missed his straight draws on the river.

He dejectedly left his seat as the 122 remaining players were all in the money as they went on dinner break.

Adam Lamphere	625,000 25,000	25,000
