Players have reached the first 15-minute break of the day.
2-7 Triple Draw
Brian Tate raised under the gun and was called by Christian Roberts in the hijack, David "ODB" Baker on the button, Allen Kessler in the small blind, and Chris Hunichen in the big blind.
Hunichen needed three and everyone else took two. The action checked to Tate who bet, Roberts called, Baker raised, Kessler called, Hunichen folded, and the others called.
All four players took one card on the second draw. It checked to Roberts who bet and everyone called.
Roberts was now pat and everyone else took one card. Roberts bet and only Tate called. Roberts tabled 7x6x4x3x2x for number two to drag a massive pot.
Defending champion Calvin Anderson was seen leaving the room after an early exit, as he is the unfortunate first departure from the tournament.

Limit Hold'em
Following a raise, defending champion Calvin Anderson three-bet from the hijack after losing a huge pot. Brian Beck then made it four bets from the button, Josh Arieh capped it at five bets from the small blind, and both Anderson and Breck called.
Action resumed on the turn with the board reading K♦8♣7♥9♣ as Anderson bet, Breck raised, Arieh cold-called from the small blind, and Anderson called.
On the 6♥ river, the action checked to Breck who bet and only Arieh called.
"i was already there and the river screwed me," Breck added as he tabled 10♣6♠ for the cold-four bet which turned a straight.
"Hold on, I just have to take a picture of this for my wife," Arieh commented as he took out his phone, showing A♥A♣ in the foreground with the board and Breck's hand in the background.
Anderson was off to a rough start but found a triple the next hand.
