Keanon Simon opened the action with a raise to 2,000 from the cutoff before Alexandre Barbarabelli three-bet to 6,000 from the cutoff. Simon came along to see a flop.

The dealer put out K♠J♦10♦ and Barbarabelli fired 4,000. Simon called.

Action went check-check on the K♣ turn and 3♦ river. Simon flipped over A♣10♥ and it was good enough to scoop the pot, adding to his table leading stack.

David Salituro

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

David Marshall raised to 1,800 in middle position before Luis Rodas moved all in for around 25,000 in the cutoff. Marshall quickly called once action folded back to him.

Luis Rodas: J♥J♣ All in
David Marshall: A♠K♠

Rodas needed to win the coin flip to stay alive, but the 9♠8♣K♥ flop gave Marshall top pair and the lead. The rest of the board ran out 7♥3♠ to end Rodas' Main Event.

After the hand, Rodas handed table neighbor Tom Dwan, who had only just taken his seat at this table, a miniature waving cat figurine as a parting gift.

Jeff McMillan

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

The board read 10♠K♠2♦6♦Q♠ on the river. Jeremiah Kinealy was put to the test as he had to make a choice for his final 26,500 as Al-Farouk Obe had jammed all in into a pot of about 40,000.

Kinealy thought about it for quite a while before eventually tossing in a one-chip call. Obe tabled the A♥10♥, and Kinealy tabled the A♣J♣ for broadway.

Obe laughed when he saw the strength of Kinealy's hand and shook his head as he was left with a few big blinds.

Ari Engel raised from an early position to receive three callers and they all checked the Q♥8♦3♠ flop. On the J♦ turn, Engel bet 2,600 to receive two callers in Sean McNulty and William Mcnabb. That led a trio to the A♥ river on which Mcnabb and Engel checked.

McNulty bet 7,000 but folded when Mcnabb check-raised, Engel also got out of the way as well.
