Maksim Pisarenko: 9x6x8x / 5x5x4xKx
David Funkhouser: XxXx / KxAxQx7x / Xx

Maksim Pisarenko completed and David Funkhouser called from the bring-in. Pisarenko raised over Funkhouser's bet on fourth and he called. Funkhouser then check-called on fifth before betting on sixth street. Pisarenko called and then seventh street checked through.

Pisarenko tabled his down cards to make a 9-8-6-5-4. Funkhouser sucked in his cheeks, turned his head to the side and mucked his board. He was left with 57,000.

David Funkhouser: 2x4x / Ax6x6xJx / Xx All in
Christian Roberts: 7x5x / AxKx8x7x / 10x

In the next hand, Funkhouser and Christian Roberts exchanged raises for the former to be all-in and at risk. Roberts made T-8-7-5-A on seventh. Funkhouser had a jack-six on sixth and needed to catch well on his final down card to survive. He peeled a 9x to make a nine-six to take in the pot.

Funkhouser then dragged in a small pot on fourth street against Ryutaro Suzuki on the following deal.

Ryutaro Suzuki: 6xAx/4xAxQx8x10x All in

Ryutaro Suzuki completed and called a raise from Andrew Yeh.

Yeh called a bet from Suzuki on fourth street after pairing his five and then bet after being checked to on fifth street.

Suzuki tanked for several minutes as he contemplated his decision, but eventually decided to call — leaving himself just 10,000 behind.

Suzuki checked on sixth street and Yeh bet to put him all in. Suzuki called and hands were revealed.

"You're good for now, I have two pair," Yeh said as he turned over his hole cards. "I'll draw first."

Yeh peeled a 10x for a ten-five, leaving Suzuki needing a nine or lower for the double up.

Suzuki slowly squeezed what turned out to be a 10x — leaving him with a second-best ten-eight to be eliminated in 10th place.
