Sam Soverel called from the small blind and Dennis Weiss checked out of the big blind.

Soverel bet 75,000 on the 10♠5♣A♣ flop and Weiss called.

Both players checked the 3♦ turn to see the J♠ hit the river. Soverel checked, and Weiss bet the pot for 330,000. Soverel thought for quite some time before reluctantly folding, and forfeiting the pot to Weiss.

Limits: 50,000-175,000

Allen Kessler raised to 175,000 under the gun before Dennis Weiss potted it from the small blind. After the big blind folded, Kessler committed his stack of around 750,000 into the middle, which Weiss instantly called.

Allen Kessler: A♥K♥K♣2♦ All in
Dennis Weiss: A♦A♣7♥7♠

Kessler picked up some extra outs with a draw to the wheel on the 4♦5♥9♦ flop. The Q♠ hit the turn, and Kessler needed some help on the river to double-up through Weiss. However, the 9♣ fell, and Kessler headed to the rail in 12th place.

Ben Yu: A♣A♥J♠3♣ All in
Christopher Vitch: A♦8♣5♣2♠

Dennis Weiss: 10♣6♣5♥4♥ All in
Philip Sternheimer: A♥Q♠7♦4♣

Weiss flopped two pair but Sternheimer had the better low draw. The J♥ turn changed nothing but the A♠ river was terrible for Sternheimer who made a worse low and only one pair as Weiss scooped with two pair and six-four for the low.
