Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Jordan Mcallister opened from under the gun to 2,500, Kazunari Sonehara called from the cutoff and Daniel Dayan also called on the button. Diane Mccarty three-bet to 12,500 and got a single call from Sonehara.

The A♥J♠3♠ flop was bet by Mccarty to 20,000 and Sonehara called.

A 3♦ was turned and Mccarty moved all in for her remaining 96,100 stack.

Sonehara called and showed J♥J♣ for a boat. Mccarty flipped over K♦K♥ and was behind, and looked to the river for some help.

There was no King to save Mccarty on the 9♥ river, and she was left to walk away from the tournament.

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Santiago Montes wasn't a happy bunny after he just lost a big pot to Corey Brass.

The chips had already flown into the middle on a runout of J♠3♠2♣7♦8♦, where Montes revealed Q♣Q♦. Brass had that beat with 7♥7♠ as he turned a set of sevens, which saw his stack rocket up to around 135,000.

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Andriy Lyubovetskiy raised to 2,800 from the cutoff and was called by Alexios Halebian in the small blind and Breffni Smith in the big blind for a three-way pot.

It was checked to Lyubovetskiy on the 2♣7♦2♠ flop and he continued for a bet of 3,000. Halebian called and Smith folded.

Both players proceeded to check down on the 10♣ turn and 5♥ river and Halebian showed 8♥7♥ for two pair. Lyubovetskiy sent his hand into the muck and Halebian put another dent into the Day 1c chip leader's stack.

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Jianwei Lin opened up the action from early position with a raise to 2,500. Kevin Williams called from two doors down, before Austin Simmerman shoved for his remaining 14,000 from the cutoff. Simas Karaliunas called on the button, and the other two players surrendered their 2,500 to the dead money pile.

Austin Simmerman: 3♠3♦ All in
Simas Karaliunas: A♠K♣

"The classic" one player at the table said as the dealer prepared the runout. It came 2♦6♣2♥10♠Q♠ and despite the paint scare on the river, Simmerman held on to keep his main event dreams alive.

James Gorham raised from under the gun and called a three-bet by Sean Spector in the big blind. The latter then fired three barrels on a board of K♣3♦2♥5♦A♦, all of which Gorham called. It was 20,000 to go on the turn and around 60,000 shove on the river.

"I don't like it but I call," Gorham immediately said and Spector tabled the A♠K♦ for the top two pair. Gorham had that beat with 2♠2♣ for a set of deuces.

In the next hand, Ilan Boujenah raised to 2,400 and received multiple callers including Gorham in the big blind. The J♥7♦5♣ flop saw Dimitrios Kilintaris bet 3,500 and Brian Andrews called. Gorham check-raised to 16,000 and Boujenah folded while the other two players called.

No more betting action followed on the 9♣ turn and 9♥ river for Gorham to reveal the 7♠5♥. Kilintaris had that beat with the A♣J♦ to claim the last pot before their table broke.

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Nana Sanechika raised to 2,500 in the hijack and Sviatoslav Belov three-bet to 10,000 in the small blind. Sanechika called and they saw a flop of Q♦3♦7♦.

Belov continued for 7,500 and Sanechika called. Belov bet another 20,000 on the 6♥ turn and Sanechika again called.

The river was the 5♣ and Belov moved all in for 37,200. Sanechika snap-called with K♣Q♥, but Belov had 10♦9♦ for a flopped flush to win the pot and double up.

"Are you a cash game player? Because cash game players don't call in the small blind," a tablemate said to Belov.

"Actually, I'm recreational," Belov replied.

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Three players headed to a turn with a pot worth roughly 23,000 in the middle, and the flop action complete on the 5♠4♣4♥ board.

The dealer burned and turned the 7♠ turn, and Kenneth Heaton, in the big blind, placed a bet of 17,500. The player who started the hand under the gun folded, but Nicholas Beecher called from middle position.

When the river came the 10♦, Heaton applied the maximum pressure possible. Covering his opponent's stack, he moved all in, a bet worth an effective 47,300.

Beecher then spent some time in the tank, piecing together the action. Ultimately, he decided a fold was in order and tossed his cards towards the muck.
