Big O
Sammy Farha and David "Bakes" Baker were heads-up on a flop of J♠3♣10♠.
Farha had a large bet in front of him from under the gun and Baker had already shoved for over 100,000 on the button.
Farha tanked a while, but eventually said, "Alright, lets go," and called to put Baker at risk.
David "Bakes" Baker: A♠Q♥4♠3♦2♥
Sammy Farha: A♥J♦7♦4♥3♠
Farha held the lead with two pair, but would need to fade a lot of outs against Baker's flush and straight draws.
The J♣ turn and J♥ river improved Farha to runner-runner quads, which got a "Ah c'mon, I don't need that much!" from Farha.
Baker took the loss in stride and wished his tablemates good luck as he exited the tournament area.
Farha is now among the chip leaders with over 300,000.

Omaha Hi-Lo
Action was picked up on the flop in a four-way pot with James Woods in the small blind, Jordan Polk in the big blind, Elizabeth Ethridge in early position, and Judah Chambers in the cutoff.
The flop rolled out 6♠9♣A♦ and Woods bet, earning three calls.
Woods bet once more on the J♣ turn and Polk called, Ethridge folded, and Chambers called.
On the river 2♥, Woods bet a third time and only Chambers called.
"Aces up with a crappy low," said the Oscar-nominated actor as he tabled A♠8♥6♣3♣ for an eight-six low with aces and sixes. Chambers mucked his hand and Woods scooped a sizable pot as the night drew to a close.

Sammy Farha raised from early position and was three-bet by Randen Honigman in the big blind. Farha asked how much Honigman has behind and called.
Farha proceeded to call bets from Honigman on the Q♦A♦5♠ flop, 9♠ turn, and for Honigman's remaining 3,500 on the 4♥ river.
Honigman turned over A♠10♦10♥2♠ for a pair of aces and Farha revealed A♣10♠7♦2♦ for the same high with a low to take the majority of the pot.

Omaha Hi-Lo
Brandon Shack-Harris and Ralph Blanco were heads-up on a flop of 9♠A♥7♣. Shack-Harris and Blanco got into a raising war that ended with Shack-Harris all in and at risk.
Brandon Shack-Harris: 6♥5♠4♣3♣
Ralph Blanco: A♣Q♠J♦10♠
The K♠ turn and Q♥ river improved Blanco to aces-up and Shack-Harris was left without a low to be eliminated.

Big O
Errol Samuel raised to 5,500 from early position and just behind him, Chris Conrad three-bet to 10,000. Action folded back around to Samuel, who went all in for his last 16,500 and Conrad quickly called.
Errol Samuel: A♣K♣10♠9♠5♦
Christopher Conrad: A♦A♥8♥6♠2♦
Samuel would need some help against Conrad's aces, and the 8♦6♣K♦J♠K♥ runout did just that by improving Samuel to trip kings for the double up.
