Vitch now drew one and the action checked through. Both patted on the end and it checked through again.

"Eight-seven-six" announced Vitch as he tabled 8x7x6x3x2x.

"I also have an eight-seven-six," replied Rawtani as he held a small hand funeral.

"Does that mean I win?" Vitch joked as he had the best eight-seven-six and he collected another pot to extend his lead atop the counts.

Rast now stood pat Stansbury took one on the second and third draws.

James Stansbury: 7x5x4x2x All in
Brian Rast: 8x6x5x3x2x

Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo

Daniel Negreanu was in the middle of recounting a big hand to his phone when another big hand emerged, kicking off with Jacob Babins raising to 8,000 in the cutoff.

"Gotta go!" Negreanu said as he dropped the selfie stick and announced "pot" to 30,000. Jean Kabbaj then flatted in the big blind as Babins got out of the way.

"Are you going high or middle?" Kabbaj asked Negreanu.

"Yeah, I'm going middle!" Negreanu replied sarcastically.

The flop landed 8♥8♠9♣ and Kabbaj checked. Negreanu bet pot for 76,000 and Kabbaj called. Kabbaj then led all in for 51,000 on the 3♦ turn and Negreanu called.

Jean Kabbaj: A♥J♠7♥2♥ All in
Daniel Negreanu: A♣A♠K♠6♥

Negreanu was ahead with aces and stayed that way for an elimination as the Q♠ river landed to confirm Kabbaj's elimination.

Negreanu then picked his selfie stick back up and went back to recounting the previous hand.

PLO – PLO 8 – Big O - PLTD: 2,000/4,000, 4,000 Ante
NLFCD & 2-7 NL: 3,000/5,000, 8,000 Ante

Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo

Action was picked up on the flop in a hand between Joshua Kay in the cutoff and Joshua Ray in the big blind.

The flop read 8♠4♠J♣ and Ray moved all in for 38,000 and Kay called to put Ray at risk.

Joshua Ray: 7♦4♥4♦3♥ All in
Joshua Kay: A♠A♥9♣7♠

Ray had flopped bottom set while Kay had flopped the nut flush draw and a gutter. The turn 10♣ gave Kay the straight and left Ray looking to improve his hand with a board pair, or to make a low and survive. The river Q♦ changed nothing and Kay raked in the pot while Ray was eliminated from the tournament.
