William Brenske bet 20,000 from the small blind on the turn of a board that showed 10♦J♥K♣8♠. William Brenske raised to 95,000, and after a few moments, Brenske three-bet jammed for 170,000. James snap-called.
William Brenske: K♠7♠ 
Kenna James: A♥Q♦
James had the nuts with a Broadway straight, and Brenske was drawing dead. The 8♣ fell on the river and all of Brenske's stack was sent over to James.
After seeing an early position raise by John Morgan, Mark Montgomery responded by moving all in for 82,000.
Action folded back to Morgan, who took a minute to think before making the call.
Mark Montgomery: A♥K♥
John Morgan: J♣J♥
A classic flip, and on this occasion, the deck favoured Montgomery as the board ran out A♦7♣5♣4♥7♥.
Montgomery pulled in the double-up as Morgan was left short-stacked from the encounter.
Rick Cooper went all-in for 62,000 and was called by Evert Zwartjens. Daniel Gates wanted to play for more and jammed for 144,000, which yielded a fold from Zwartjens to go to a showdown between Cooper and Gates.
Rick Cooper: J♠J♥
Daniel Gates: A♦Q♠
Cooper stayed ahead on the flop 8♠4♣10♠, but the A♥ spelt doom for Cooper as it left him with only two outs with one card to go. The 9♣ sealed the deal and sent Cooper out of the tournament.
Kevin Knourek was all in and at risk on a flop of 9♥10♥K♥ against David Martin. Knourek was ahead but he had to dodge quite a few outs.
Kevin Knourek: A♠A♦
David Martin: A♣J♥
The board completed with the 2♣ and 9♣, the relieved Knourek said, "I wanted two days for those! Second pair I've seen." as he collected the pot.
With the flop showing 5♣9♥K♣, David Hinterberg checked from the big blind, and Chris Antzoulatos bet 20,000 from middle position. Jeffrey Mermelstein called for his last 12,000 from the button, and Hinterberg also called.
With Mermelstein all-in, the 5♥ turn and K♥ river were checked down. Hinterberg revealed 10♦10♣, and Antzoulatos showed 10♠10♥. Mermelstein had them both beat with K♠J♣ for a full house and tripled up.
Bret Hansen went all-in for 93,000 and was covered by Rassoul Malboubi, who called to send the two to a showdown with Hansen at risk.
Bret Hansen: 9♦9♠
Rassoul Malboubi: A♥Q♠
Hansen was ahead before the runout, but the A♦K♥3♥ flop vaulted Malboubi into the lead. It looked grim for Hansen, but he struck one of his outs when the 9♥ came on the turn to hit a set of nines.
This jubilation of spiking a set would not last, however, as the J♥ river gave Malboubi a flush on the river to score the knockout.
Rudijanto Soetikno raised to 12,000 from early position with only Brenda Breit calling from the big blind.
Upson seeing the 7♣10♦3♠ flop, Breit jammed for 21,000. Soetikno called.
Brenda Breit: Q♦3♣
Rudijanto Soetikno: A♣Q♥
Breit was ahead with her pair of treys, and she managed to stay in the lead on the 5♥ turn and K♥ river, meaning she earned the full double-up.
