Level 13 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Tom Dwan decided to make a rare appearance at the WSOP after max late-regging and has already put his chips to work.

In a recent hand, Arthur Morris raised to 31,000 from the cutoff and was called by Tom Dwan in the big blind.

Dwan led out for 83,000 on the 10♠6♦7♠ flop and Morris folded.

Dwan has already more than doubled his stack since sitting down and currently sits with about 395,000.

Danny Hannawa: A♥K♠J♣6♥ All in
Daniel Negreanu: A♣7♠5♠4♣

Hannawa was ahead with his pair of kings and the 5♥10♠ runout bricked out for Negreanu to score Hannawa the double up.

Level 13 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

On a flop of J♦10♥9♥, Marcello Del Grosso bet 20,000 and Filip Lovric then pushed all-in for 114,000. Del Grosso asked for the size of the pot to see if the shove was already possible and then called a few seconds later.

Filip Lovric: Q♥Q♦9♠6♥ All in
Marcello Del Grosso: J♠10♣9♣5♠

Del Grosso was ahead with two pair and that remained the case with the 7♦ turn and 2♦ river, as Lovric missed the straight and flush draw.

Jordan Scott raised to 25,000 from middle position and Sean Winter defended his big blind.

Jordan Scott: K♣J♣10♦7♣ All in
Sean Winter: J♦J♠9♠9♥

The 3♦9♣ runout needlessly improved Winter to quads and Scott was eliminated.
