Gabriel Paul made it 1,000 to go from the button and only Wendeen Eolis called from the big blind.
Eolis knuckled the action over to Paul on the K♥10♣8♣ flop. Paul bet 1,000, which Eolis called.
Eolis checked again on the 4♣ turn, prompting Paul to fire a second bet of 2,700. Eolis put together a check-raise to 5,500, and Paul made the call.
The 7♦ river went check-check and Eolis revealed the winner with A♥K♦ for a pair of kings.
Adam Owen raised to 1,100 under the gun. Adrian Lopez called in late position, and Ole Nygaard tossed in a call from the small blind.
The trio went to a flop of K♦9♣10♦, which they all checked. After Nygaard also checked the 9♥ turn, Owen bet 1,500. Lopez called, while Nygaard folded.
Owen sized up to 3,300 on the 4♣ river. Lopez confirmed the sizing before he let his hand disappear into the muck
David Baldanza raised to 1,000 from middle position before Andreas Kniep three-bet to 3,000 from the button. Rodrigo Portaleoni cold called from the big blind and Baldanza also called.
Three ways to the A♠J♥4♦ flop that was checked to Kniep, who bet 2,800. Portaleoni folded, but Baldanza called.
Two checks followed the 5♦ turn to see the K♣ roll off on the river. Baldanza checked before Kniep bet 15,300. Baldanza swiftly released his cards and surrendered the pot to Kniep.
Mark Epstein raised to 1,000 from the button before Andreas Berggren three-bet to 3,000 from the small blind. Esptein called.
The dealer fanned out the 2♥3♣10♣ flop, and Berggren continued with a bet of 3,500. Epstein called.
The 3♠ on the turn was checked by both players and the J♦ rolled off on the river. Berggren bet 12,500, which got Epstein to fold.
The players have gone on their second 20-minute break of the day.
Here below are some of the highlights of the past two hours.
Jeffrey Blenkarn had raised on the button when Kim Wittendorff promptly piled in his stack of 40,600 from the big blind. Blenkarn spent a bit in the tank before he folded, showing the A♠ as he did so.
Wittendorff casually tabled the 6♦, raking in the chips without showdown.
With two players seeing a final board of J♦Q♣10♦8♥4♥ and around 20,000 in the middle, Thi Ngo checked from the hijack and Wenbin Chen shoved from the cutoff, covering Ngo who had 24,300 behind. Ngo called.
Chen could only show K♠10♠ for a pair of tens, missed straight draw and blocker to the nut straight. Ngo turned over the second-nut straight with K♦9♦ to secure a full double up through Chen.
Erick Lindgren raised in early position to 700, and only Richard Spencer called, defending his big blind.
Spencer checked in flow on the 9♣9♠6♠ flop, calling Lindgren's continuation-bet of 700.
There was no slowing down from Lindgren on the 7♦ turn, upping the ante with a wager of 2,000. Again, Spencer called.
The dealer flipped the river 8♣ and Spencer checked for a third time. Lindgren still wasn't content with the size of the pot, placing a more substantial bet of 8,000. Spencer wasn't as quick with his decision on this street, but did end up flicking in a chip to signify a call.
It was bad news for Spencer, though, as Lindgren rolled over 6♥6♦ for a flopped full house. Spencer mucked his cards face down, and the dealer pushed the pot in the direction of Lindgren.
Daniel Tafur made it 800 to go from under the gun with Paul Newey calling from the hijack, and Robert Tencza defending his big blind.
Tencza checked the 8♠Q♦K♥ flop, and Tafur put out a continuation-bet of 1,500. Newey called, but Tencza folded.
Heads-up now to the 5♦ turn, where Tafur fired again, this time for 2,000. Once again, Newey called.
The A♣ river prompted Tafur to slow down and check. Newey fired 5,800, which was enough to get a fold from Tafur.
Action was picked up on the turn in a pot betwen Brendan Shiller in the big blind and Taylor Wilson in the cutoff with 7,800 in the middle.
The board read 2♥J♥J♣6♣ and Shiller bet 4,200 to see Wilson call.
On the river 4♦, Shiller bet 5,900 and Wilson opted to raise to 15,500. Shiller wasted little time in calling the bet.
"Good call," said Wilson and Shiller tabled Q♦Q♥ for queens up which was good for Shiller to take down the pot.
