Action was picked up on the second draw in a pot between Dominick Sarle in the cutoff and Sean Akhavi in the small blind.
On the second betting round, Akhavi bet and Sarle responded by raising. Akhavi raised over that and Sarle clicked it back which Akhavi called.
Both players stood pat and Akhavi check-called a bet from Sarle.
Akhavi showed 7♠3♦2♥A♣ for a seven, but it was second best against Sarle who held 5♣4♦2♠A♥ for number three. Sarle climbed to over one million in chips and Akhavi was left short.

Daisuke Ogita tossed in a raise in the cutoff, seeing Kevin Choi and John Monnette call in the blinds. The trio took one card each on the draw, after which the action checked to Ogita.
He fired a bet, received two calls, and stood pat after Choi and Monnette had drawn one card. Both Monnette and Choi check-called Ogita's bet again before the final draw.
Choi then also stood pat, while Monnette still needed one card, and Ogita remained pat behind. Ogita fired one final bet after being checked to, which only Choi called.
Ogita showed 8♠6♥5♦3♣ for an eight-badugi, and the pot was shipped to him as Choi mucked his holding.

Tate tabled 8♦5♠3♥A♣ for an eight-badugi, and Tilton quickly mucked his cards in defeat.

Michael Krescanko Jr: K♠10♥8♣2♦
David Funkhouser: 9♣6♥4♦
Funkhouser did not hit a spade with the J♥, doubling up Krescanko Jr and leaving Funkhouser with less than one big bet.

Dourado tabled K♠J♦8♣A♥ for a king-badugi and won the pot when the other players mucked their hands.
