Action folded to Samuel Rosborough in the cutoff, and he decided to go all in. Nobody wanted to call, but Samuel Rosborough in the big blind asked for a count. When the dealer confirmed 735,000, Rosborough put some chips in the middle for a call, and it went to showdown.
Jeremy Saderne: A♥8♦
Samuel Rosborough: A♠6♣
The J♣2♥7♥ flop and the Q♠ promised a lot of split pot out on the river, but the dealer turned the 8♠, a pair for Saderne. Allowing him to double up and stay in the tournament.
Samuel Rosborough kicked things off from middle position with a raise to 200,000. Action folded to Felipe Ramos in the big blind, who took his time before he announced his all-in. When the action was back on Rosborough, he snap-called.
Felipe Ramos: A♣Q♥
Samuel Rosborough: 10♠10♣
Ramos was hoping to see an ace or a queen on the board, but as it ran out 10♠7♠Q♠8♣K♥, he was sent packing but managed to get the pay jump.
Zachary Hall lost the majority of his chips in a three-way pot against where Julio Belluscio got value from Carlos Kinil on a board reading K♣K♥4♦4♣J♠ and the prior showed A♣J♦ to collect the pot.
A Few Hands Later:
Zachary Hall raised to 220,000, leaving himself one 5,000 chip behind. Julio Belluscio responded with a raise of his own to the tune of 470,000. Hall gave himself a few moments but it was clear there was no major action at the other table and he flicked in his last chip.
Zachary Hall: K♠10♣
Julio Belluscio: A♣K♣
The board ran out clean for Belluscio as the 5♦3♣J♦7♥9♦ hit the felt.

Charlie Cuff moved all in from middle position for his remaining 590,000 and got a single call from Kurt Fitzgerald in the big blind, who had him well covered.
Charlie Cuff: 3♠3♣
Kurt Fitzgerald: J♠9♠
Cuff was ahead and things stayed that way on the 5♥2♥4♠ flop.
The 5♣ was turned and the A♥ river saw cuff double up.
Jeremy Saderne kicked things off with a raise to 160,000 from the cutoff. Samuel Rosborough, in the big blind, was the only one who wanted to see a flop.
Rosborough check-called the 110,000 bet of Saderne on the 7♥A♣J♥ flop.
When the 5♣ turn was tabled, Rosborough checked once again, and Saderne fired another bet of 375,000. With the action back at Rosborough, he raised to 2,000,000, which meant the all-in for Saderne. Saderne went deep into the tank, checked his cards, chips, and the clock multiple times. After almost three minutes, he decided to fold and give up on a decent pot.
