Krasimir Yankov raised to 4,200 from the cutoff. Brian Breck called on the button, and then Oliver Weis raised to 17,400 from the big blind. Both Yankov and Breck called.
The flop came K♥9♦2♠, and Weis continued his aggression, betting 54,000. Yankov called and Breck folded.
The 5♦ came on the river, and Weis moved his remaining stack into the middle. Yankov didn't wait for a count before making the call.
Oliver Weis: A♦Q♦J♥10♥ 
Krasimir Yankov: K♦K♠9♣5♣
Weis had a huge draw, but the 6♥ on the river wasn't a card he needed, and he lost all of his chips to Yankov in this hand.

Level 5
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Jared Bleznick put out a raise to 3,500 from under the gun before the dealer had even finished dealing the cards. He picked up two callers, Richard Gryko in the cutoff and Chance Kornuth in the small blind.
The flop came 7♣7♥J♣, and both Kornuth and Bleznick checked. Gryko took the lead with a bet of 4,000, which prompted Kornuth to check-raise to 15,000. Bleznick got out of the way, but Gryko stuck around.
The K♦ hit the turn, and Kornuth continued for 38,000. After some thought, Gryko made the call once again.
On the K♣ river, Kornuth slowed down and checked. Gryko then bet 45,000, nearly half his remaining stack. Kornuth burned through three timebank cards before eventually folding, sending a nice pot Gryko’s way.

Level 5
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
After a flurry of limps, Jeremy Ausmus raised the button to 9,000 and received five callers.
Six players saw the dealer spread out a flop of 3♥4♥6♠. Two checks happened before John Riordan jammed for roughly 75,000. After a few more folds, Ausmus shoved himself, which forced the rest of the table to fold.
John Riordan: 7♠5♣J♣J♠
Jeremy Ausmus: 8♦7♥6♥6♦
Riordan had the current nuts against Ausmus' set, flush draw, and higher straight outs. Ausmus found instant service on the 5♦ turn, as he improved to a higher straight. The 4♦ came on the river to improve Aumus again to an unnecessary boat, sending Riordan to the rail.

A total of five players all put in 5,000 before the flop to create a multi-way pot.

Bleznick did not slow down on the 8♦ turn and fired 60,000. Klostermeier folded to end the hand.

Todd Ivens began the hand with a raise from under the gun to 3,000. Steven Sarmiento called from middle position before Dario Sammartino raised to 6,500 from the hijack. Ivens and Sarmiento called to send the three to a flop.
All three players checked the board of 7♥8♠10♣K♥Q♥. Ivers showed 9♦6♠7♣5♠ for a ten-high straight, which was good enough as Sarmiento and Sammartino mucked their hands to award the pot to Ivens.

Yang Wang limped from under the gun and Matthew Smith limped from the cutoff. Iaroslav Boiko raised to 6,600 on the button, and Stephen Chidwick called from the small blind. Wang limp-raised to 28,000, which Boiko and Chidwick called.
Three ways to a flop of Q♥9♥7♠ where the action checked to Boiko, who jammed for 63,800. Chidwick folded, but Yang flicked in the call.
Iaroslav Boiko: K♠Q♣10♣8♠
Yang Wang: A♠A♦7♣3♠
Yang had aces, but Boiko could hit a lot of cards to stay alive and more than double-up. The rest of the board came 8♦4♣, giving Boika the winner with two pair.

With about 25,000 already in the middle and the board reading 7♦5♦9♥10♠, David Williams took the lead from the hijack, firing 10,000. Pete Deveaux called from the cutoff, and both players opted to check the A♦ river.
At showdown, Williams tabled A♠Q♦10♥9♦, revealing a flush. Deveaux showed A♥Q♠9♠5♥ for two pair, but it wasn’t enough. Williams’ flush earned him the pot.

Sipila showed A♣K♥J♦2♦ for two pair. Garza showed K♠8♥7♥4♥.
