Naoya Kihara raised the button to 48,000, with Dan Shak calling from the small blind and John Cynn calling from the big blind.

Shak drew one, Cynn two, and Kihara checked.

After Shak checked, Cynn bet 130,000, which only Kihara called. Cynn showed 9x7x6x3x2x, which earned him the pot as he had Kihara pipped by one with 9x7x6x4x2x.

The next hand, Ryutaro Suzuki raised to 48,000 under the gun and called the 311,000 jam of Chad Eveslage from the big blind. Eveslage patted and Suzuki drew one.

Chad Eveslage: 10x9x6x5x4x All in
Ryutaro Suzuki: 8x4x3x2x

Suzuki needed a ten or nine, but it wasn't to be as he caught an Ax, and Eveslage doubled.

Alex Foxen raised to 32,00 under the gun and Ryan Hoenig three-bet to 103,000 in the big blind, leaving only one chip behind. Foxen then moved all in, and Hoenig called.

Ryan Hoenig: Jx10x9x7x2x All in
Alex Foxen: Jx6x5x3x2x

Both players patted with jacks, but Foxen's jack-six earned him the pot to send Hoenig to the rail.

At the same time on another table, Ryutaro Suzuki raised to 48,000 in the cutoff, then called when Robert French moved all in for 284,000 on the button.

Suzuki patted, and French waited for confirmation that the field was down to 14 before patting behind. He showed 10x6x5x3x2x, and Suzuki mucked 10x8x6x5x2x before handing over the double up.
