Mike Matusow opened the action by raising to 56,000 from early position. Ap Garza, in the small blind, raised; putting Matusow at risk for ~200,000.
Mike Matusow: K♠Q♥8♠7♥ 
Ap Garza: A♠A♣K♥J♣
When it was all said and done, the board read Q♦7♦3♥6♠6♣.
Matusow's flopped two pair was bested by the rivered two pair of Garza; sending a legend of the game home in 50th.
On a river reading Q♠5♦Q♦4♠J♣, Martin Kabrhel had placed a bet of 140,000 but was soon faced by an all-in raise from Nick Schulman up to 342,000.
Schulman, always even-keel, stomached the table talk and antics of Kabrhel while the Czech pro said, "I have a full house but not the best one..." before being reprimanded by the dealer for discussing his hand. Kabrhel went on to request that the dealer pull in the difference of his bet, which Schulman obliged and did himself.
After cutting out the chips and holding the double barrels but not calling, Shaun Deeb called the clock on Kabrhel. This noticeably agitated Kabrhel, who said, "Complete joke, you're out of line..."
Kabrhel looked pained but allowed the 30-second countdown to run through, and his hand was dead.
Schulman went on to windmill slam his hand on the table with the A♠J♠5♥4♦, which only had blockers to the boat.
"No round of applause?" Schulman said, as the rest of the table couldn't quite process what had happened yet.
"I thought you had just the four-five for the bluff, ace-jack is even better," said Deeb.
All of a sudden, Kabrhel, who never has a shortage of things to say, was left in a palpable silence, only to be broken by Schulman chiming in, "Say my name, Martin."
Kabrhel had spent the majority of the start of the day and bubble play needling Schulman for his short stack, going as far as asking the table to give him a round of applause when his stack eclipsed the 100,000-chip mark, many hours ago.
The Very Next Hand:
Action was on Kabrhel, but before he had even looked at his cards, he leaned in to the dealer and inquired what he was being reprimanded for the hand before. An equally agitated Deeb proceeded to call the clock on Kabrhel, expressing his concern about the table's pace.
"We have six of the fastest players in the room; it's obvious who the problem is," Deeb told the floor when they came to investigate the issue.
Kabrhel went on to win the hand and immediately returned his attention to Deeb.
Kabrhel requested an apology from Deeb, who refused, so Kabrhel asked Deeb to no longer talk to him at the table. A request Deeb assuredly had no issue with.
Lucky for all the parties involved, their table was next to break and since these hands, the players have now been separated.
All of the chips were in the middle preflop as Jason Funke called a reraise of 240,000 from Caleb Furth.
Caleb Furth: A♣A♦Q♠10♠
Jason Funke: A♥K♥Q♣7♣
The board ran out A♠K♠7♣8♠J♥
The turned flush for Furth was enough to secure himself close to 550,000 chips over Funke's two pair.
Shaun Deeb was seen doubling up through Fabian Riebauschmithals on a board of 9♦10♥4♦2♠K♦ when he rivered the nut flush holding A♦Q♣8♦6♥.
Deeb was recently moved to Martin Kabrhel's table and he has become the newest victim of his interrogations.
Kabrhel went as far as asking if Deeb was addicted to fast food, as well as questioning how his most recent double up occurred, as he was busy pacing around the room, eyeing various stacks.
The action was picked up on the flop where Roussos Koliakoudakis was at risk for his remaining ~280,000 chips versus Kevin Hyde on a board of K♦J♠5♦.
Roussos Koliakoudakis: A♠K♥10♠2♥
Kevin Hyde: Q♥J♦9♦3♥
The 8♠ turn and Q♣ river secured Koliakoudakis his double up with rivered broadway.
All of the chips were in the middle preflop between Aaron Overton and Dong Suh, putting Suh at risk.
Dong Suh: A♥K♠10♥4♣
Aaron Overton: A♦A♠7♣4♠
Overton held the advantage on a 10♣6♥2♠ flop and 8♣ turn, but the K♥ river saved Suh's tournament life as his two pair beat the aces of Overton.
Jon Shoreman opened to 35,000 from the cutoff. Matthew Beck sat in wait from the small blind, and when it folded to him, he made it 80,000 to go. Shoreman was ready to play for it all raising to 140,000, and risking his tournament life. Beck quickly called.
Jon Shoreman: A♠A♣8♠4♦
Matthew Beck: Q♠Q♣8♦3♦
Unfortunately for Shoreman, Beck smashed the flop of Q♦10♦7♦.
A 4♠ turn followed by a 5♥ river sealed his fate for Shoreman, and he was headed to the rail.
Frank Brannan made it 25,000 to go from under the gun. Action folded around to Pavel Plesuv in the big blind who made the call.
A flop of A♠J♦4♥ was bet by Brannan for 20,000 after a check from Plesuv. Plesuv called.
Both players knuckled a turn of 4♠.
On a 2♦ river, Plesuv bet out 67,000. Brannan announced 238,000, and with a face of disgust, Plesuv made the call.
Frank Brannan: QxQ♠J♣J♥
Pavel Plesuv couldn't help but show his A♥4♣.
Having a higher full house, Brannan is now in an excellent position to steadily push through this tough day two field with a very healthy chip stack.
Action folded to Samuel Stranak on the button, who raised to 22,000. Next to act, Bryce Yockey announced pot from the small blind and raised it to 74,000. Pot was then announced by Stranak, putting himself at risk for 220,000. Yockey made the call, and the players tabled their hands.
Samuel Stranak: A♠A♦3♥3♦
Bryce Yockey: A♥K♠10♦4♥
Once the flop of K♥8♣4♦ came out giving Yockey two pair, Stranak needed help.
The 5♦ turn gave Stranak more outs, but the 9♣ river was of no use to Stranak, and his tournament run was over.
