The board ran out Q♣J♠6♠5♦7♥, which was no help to Krentzman and he headed to the rail.

Pot-Limit Omaha
George Wolff raised to 105,000 on the button and Michael Moncek raised the pot from the small blind. Nick Schulman reluctantly folded his big blind and Wolff called off his stack of 270,000.
George Wolff: A♥Q♦J♣2♣
Michael Moncek: A♠A♣7♠4♦
The flop came 10♣5♥3♠ and Moncek was still well out front with his pair of aces. The 8♦ on the turn and the 7♥ on the river changed nothing, sending Wolff home in 19th place.

No-Limit Hold'em
Ben Tollerene opened to 65,000 from under the gun and Stephen Chidwick shipped all in for 600,000 in the hijack. The action folded back to Tollerene who snap-called and the cards were on their backs.
Stephen Chidwick: 8♣8♦
Ben Tollerene: A♥A♣
The flop came 9♣7♠3♥ and Chidwick found no immediate help in the form of an eight. The turn was the A♦ and Chidwick was left drawing dead to the Q♥ on the river. The start-of-day chip leader was eliminated with a min-cash near the end of Day 1.

No-Limit Hold'em
Brandon Mitchell raised on the button and was met with an all-in by Michael Duek in the small blind for roughly 350,000. Mitchell called, and the players turned over their cards to reveal they were flipping.
Michael Duek: Q♥J♥
Brandon Mitchell: 9♥9♦
The flop looked good for Duek, coming down A♥10♣6♥, giving him a world of outs.
The turn 9♠ added some more possible outs, despite giving his opponent a set.
The river 2♠ was no help, though, and Mitchell was sent to the rail.

Dan Smith called from under the gun, Gabriel Andrade called from the button, Chongxian Yang completed from the small blind, and then Noah Boeken announced pot from the big blind for 150,000. Dan Smith re-potted for his chip stack, the other players folded, and Boeken flicked in his last ~10k back.
Noah Boeken: A♣K♦5♥3♥
Dan Smith: 9♠8♠8♣6♠
The 5♣4♦3♣7♠J♣ runout gave Smith a straight and sent Boeken to the rail in 23rd.
