The hand was picked up with Koen De Batselier all-in against Jacky Lee
Koen De Batselier: A♥Q♣
Jacky Lee: A♣K♦
De Batselier's bad news turned good for a moment when the flop hit Q♦4♣10♠, pairing his queen. But the K♣2♣ on the turn and river gave Lee the win with a pair of kings.
The action was picked up when the board showed 7♦6♣A♣J♥.
Harry Sandford in the small blind decided to check on the turn, followed by Roman Nuraev in the hijack and Justin Datloff on the button. The dealer turned over the river card 7♣.
Sandford decided to put 1,500,000 in the middle of the table. After a quick think, Nuraev and Datloff both decided to fold, letting Sandford take the chips.
The action was on Donna LaDuke, who moved all in over the top of Julian Altieri's middle-position raise.
Altieri made the call for 2,185,000 chips.
Donna LaDuke: J♦J♠
Julian Altieri: 10♦10♥
LaDuke's jacks held through a runout of 7♣9♦2♥Q♠J♥.
Level: 29
Blinds: 100,000/150,000
Ante: 150,000
Kenneth Song moved all in from the small blind with a little over 2,000,000 chips.
Jeremy Armstrong made it a blind-versus-blind contest with the call.
Kenneth Song: K♥8♥
Jeremy Armstrong: A♥Q♣
Song had live cards, but neither connected on the runout of 9♣9♦2♣Q♠10♥. Armstrong paired his queen on the turn and sent Song home in 253rd place.
The hand was picked up with Adrian Jimenez moving all in from the button with just under 2,000,000 chips. Margaret Fox, who was in the pot in middle position, made the call.
Adrian Jimenez: 10♣10♠
Margaret Fox: 6♣6♠
Jiminez' edge grew tremendously when he found a set on the fop, and the full runout 10♥4♦J♦J♠4♠ gave him a full house and a nice double-up.
The hand was picked up with Adel Kabbani moving all in with 835,000 from the big blind on a flop of 5♦J♥Q♠.
Shane Raikes, on this left, made the call. Dara Taherpour, in middle position, raised all in with 2,085,000 chips.
Raikes considered his options for a moment before electing to call.
Adel Kabbani: Q♣7♠
Dara Taherpour: A♥Q♦
Shane Raikes: K♦10♥
Taherpour had the best hand with top pair, top kicker, and Kabbani was outkicked. Raikes had a straight draw.
The 9♥ on the turn delivered the straight for Raikes, and the 4♠ river mattered not, as he scored the double knockout.
The action was picked up when the chips were already in the middle.
Koen De Batselier: A♣A♥
Jeffrey Haney: K♦10♠
The dealer showed the board: 4♣K♣Q♦8♥6♦
All chips moved to Debatsellier, leaving Haney with 250,000 in chips and got eliminated a few hands later.
Benjamin Horgan moved all in under the gun. David Jackson, seated to his immediate left, raised to 900,000 to discourage other competition.
Benjamin Horgan: 10♣10♦
David Jackson: 7♣7♦
Horgan's lead evaporated quickly, as Jackson found a seven on the flop of 7♥8♠2♦, and the K♠2♣ runout didn't rescue him.
The returning 303 players have taken their seats, and the cards have been sent into the air for Day 3 of the $500 COLOSSUS.
