Melvin McCraney bet from early position on a flop of 2♣K♣5♠, Edrick Yballa raised all in from the small blind, and McCraney called.
Edrick Yballa: J♠6♣4♠3♣ 
Melvin McCraney: A♣Q♣5♦4♥
The board ran out Q♠7♦ and McCraney made queens and fives with a low to scoop the pot and send Yballa to the rail.

Edrick Yballa raised first to act and Matt Grapenthien called on his direct left.
On the K♣4♠3♣ flop, Yballa bet, Grapenthien raised, and Yballa called.
On the 5♦ turn, Yballa checked to Grapenthien who bet. Yballa, with just 175,000 behind, went deep into the tank for almost two minutes before he elected to let it go. Grapenthien was kind enough to show the A♣2♠ for a wheel to show Yballa that he made the right fold to survive.

Three-handed on a board of 4♦J♣8♦9♥, Darren Taylor led out with a bet from the small blind and Dennis Morrison called in middle position, as did Davin Anderson on the button.
Taylor bet again on the 7♦ river and both opponents called. "Nut-nut," Taylor said, showing A♦K♥2♦2♠ for the nut flush and low to scoop the pot.

Paez check-called the flop of 5♣3♠2♠ after Marks bet.
On the turn 2♥, Paez checked over to Marks who moved all in for 85,000 and Paez called.
Austin Marks: A♥J♠4♣4♥
Raul Paez: A♣K♦10♠5♦
The river 8♥ changed nothing as Marks' wheel scooped the pot and Paez was left with less than two big bets.

Joe Ford raised in the cutoff and Dennis Morrison called on the button. "Why didn't you call? I would've called blind," Davin Anderson said to small blind David Shmuel as he also called.
The flop came Q♠7♦4♠ and Ford bet. Morrison called and Anderson raised. Ford then reraised, Morrison called, and Anderson called all in.
Ford bet again on the 4♦ turn and Morrison called. Ford checked the 7♥ river, Morrison bet, and Ford called.
Morrison showed A♥K♦7♣3♥ for trips and Ford mucked A♣Q♥10♠2♦, but Anderson had Q♣9♠9♥7♠ for queens full of sevens to win the pot and triple up.
"Call the floor. He's criticizing my play," Anderson joked about tablemate Gregory Wood after the hand.
"Did you do that? Good job," Darrell the Floor Person said to Wood to a round of laughs from the table.

On the 2♦ turn, Miller led all-in for 35,000 and McCraney called.
Adam Miller: A♥K♥Q♦4♣
Melvin McCraney: A♦A♣K♠7♥
Miller was ahead with two pair until the 5♦ completed the board to counterfeit his two pair as the aces and fives of McCraney were good to send Miller to the rail.

Action was picked up on the turn in a sizable pot between Matt Grapenthien in first position, Melvin McCraney in early position, and Raul Paez in middle position.
With 700,000 in the middle, action checked to Paez on a board reading 2♥9♦10♠Q♥ who bet. Grapenthien went into the tank before folding his hand and McCraney quickly called.
On the river 10♥, McCraney bet and Paez shook his head as he tossed in the four green chips to call.
McCraney turned over K♥K♦5♥2♣ for a king-high flush and Paez flashed A♠A♦ as he tossed his cards into the muck.

Ilia Krupin bet from the button on a flop of Q♣Q♠8♦ and Clyde Gaskins called in the big blind.
Gaskins then put in his last 30,000 on the 7♦ turn and Krupin called. Gaskins had 10♦7♠7♣3♥ for a full house, while Krupin had K♥K♣Q♦6♣ for trips. The K♠ river improved Krupin to a better full house and Gaskins was eliminated.
"Unbelievable. I can't believe how bad I ran the last hour and a half," Gaskins lamented.
At the same time at another table, Chuning Tan got his last chips in with A♣A♦8♥4♥ on a board of 2♠6♠J♦9♣Q♣, but Eric Polirer had A♥6♣3♦2♦ for two pair to win the pot and send Tan to the rail.

Ahmed Mohamed raised in the small blind, Patrick Stacey reraised in the big blind, and Mohamed called.

Ahmed Mohamed: A♦Q♣10♥6♣
Patrick Stacey: A♣K♥J♠10♠
Mohamed was ahead with two pair, but the J♣ turn gave Stacey a straight. The river was the J♥ and Stacey took the pot to send Mohamed to the rail.
