Juan Lamprea opened to 75,000 under the gun. It folded to Reagan Rich, who committed his last 90,000 from the big blind. Rich instantly called, revealing the cards.

Reagan Rich: A♦10♥9♥7♦ All in
Juan Lamprea: A♥9♦6♣2♠

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

With three players seeing a board of 10♠9♣8♠, Marco Johnson was all in from the cutoff for a bit under 1,000,000, Sergio Benso was all in from the small blind for less and they were up against Eric Tang who had both players covered from the button.

Sergio Benso: K♠8♣5♠3♣ All in
Marco Johnson: Q♠Q♦J♣10♣ All in
Eric Tang: K♦Q♣J♦4♥

Benso had a pair and a flush draw while both Johnson and Tang had the nut-straight. The rest of the board ran out K♣4♣ giving Johnson a running flush to scoop the pot, elimiante Benso and leave Tang short-stacked. Tang was unable to recover and was eliminated shortly after.

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Ronnie Tate limped in from the cutoff, Zachary Zaret followed suit on the button, and Reagan Rich made it 150,000 to go from the small blind.

Tate then jammed all in for 330,000. Zaret got out of the way, but Rich made the call with the covering stack.

Ronnie Tate: A♥J♠5♣2♣ All in
Reagan Rich: A♣Q♦4♥3♥

Tate's five paired up on the 4♣10♠10♦9♠5♦ board, granting him the victory and doubling him up. Rich meanwhile, was left with just four big blinds to his name.

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Edward Jackson Spivack was all in from the hijack for a total of 815,000 on a 6♥3♠K♥8♣ turn, and was at risk against Grant Hart on the button.

Edward Jackson Spivack: A♠9♠3♥2♣ All in
Grant Hart: A♣10♥10♣2♠

Both players had the nut low, but Hart had the better high of the two. The 5♣ river did not change anything, and Jackson Spivack was left with about half of his original stack.

At another table, Jared Hemingway was eliminated to leave 28 players remaining.

Frank Visser

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Calvin Anderson made it 60,000 from the cutoff, and Yehuda Buchalter reraised to 275,000 on the button. Anderson weighed his options for a while before calling, seeing the 5♣3♣3♦ flop appear on the table.

Anderson checked to Buchalter, who quickly jammed all in for 205,000. Anderson snap-mucked his cards and handed his former chips over to Buchalter.
