Ryuta Nakai raised from the cutoff and was raised to his immediate left by Jeremy Maher on the button. Nakai called as the two took a flop.
Nakai checked the 10♦5♦A♥ flop, which led to a bet from Maher. Nakai called.
Both players checked the 10♠ turn.
Nakai led out on the 6♥ river, and Maher went into the tank. Maher eventually decided on a call and was shown the bad news as Nakai rolled over J♥10♥ for turned trip tens.
Nicholas Goedert opened from the hijack, and James Leonard three-bet from the cutoff. Goedert four-bet, Leonard capped it at five bets, and Goedert called.
The flop came J♠7♣7♦. Goedert bet, Leonard raised, putting himself all in, and Goedert called.
James Leonard: A♣Q♣
Nicholas Goedert: K♠K♥
Leonard failed to catch an ace on the 5♦3♦ runout and was sent to the rail while Goedert picked up a nice pot.
The tournament run is over for Michael Davis. Davis raised from the small blind and was called in the big blind by Patrick Mahoney.
The flop came 7♣4♣3♠, which led to a check from Mahoney. Davis bet, and Mahoney raised to commit Davis to an all-in. Davis called off.
Michael Davis: A♦2♦
Patrick Mahoney: 9♥5♣
Davis was slightly ahead, but Mahoney had a gutshot straight draw and backdoor flush draws as well as the nine for an out.
The 10♣ gave Mahoney flush outs, and the 6♦ river sunk Davis to send him out of the tournament.
Scott Seiver opened from early position, Christopher Bartley called from the cutoff and Kevin Strzalka, who had started the hand with 4,000, was already forced all-in from the big blind.
The flop came 8♦6♠3♦ and Seiver check-called a bet from Bartley.
Both players checked the K♠ turn leading to the 3♠ river. Seiver bet and Bartley called.
Strzalka could only show nine-high with 9♠2♦. Seiver had missed with J♥9♥ while Bartley had a pair with 9♣8♠ to eliminate Strzalka on the stone bubble.

With the money bubble looming over the head of very short-stacked Russell Hudson found himself in an unfavorable position with a short stack in the big blind that ate most of it.
Patricia Gallagher raised from under the gun and was called by Adam Tyburski. Hudson went all in for his remaining 12,000, creating a smaller side pot between Gallagher and Tyburski.
Gallagher and Tyburski checked down on the K♦3♣A♣Q♥9♠ board. Gallagher showed 10♠10♥ and Tyburski showed the same hand with 10♣10♦. Hudson jubilantly rolled over his A♦6♥, pounded the table, and exclaimed, "Yes!" as he scooped the main pot for a triple.
With two players seeing a board of 9♦J♠3♣Q♥5♣ and around 150,000 in the middle, Alen Bakovic checked from the big blind and Ryuta Nakai bet from the button. Bakovic called.
Nakai showed top pair with Q♦10♦ and Bakovic mucked his hand.
With 75 players remaining and 74 spots paid, the tournament has now entered hand-for-hand play.
