Roy Thung completed, Jason Mercier two-bet, and Thung called. Both players checked fourth street, and Thung kept checking on fifth street. Mercier tossed in a bet, which Thung called.
Thung check-called again on sixth street, after which seventh street was checked to showdown. Thung sheepishly tabled a jack-low, but it was good enough for the pot as Mercier mucked his cards after carefully studying them.

The next hand, the game switched. Bryce Yockey made it 85,000 in the hijack, seeing Nick Guagenti three-bet to 260,000 from the small blind. Yockey called, leaving 100,000 behind.
Guagenti put in the rest on the 5♥2♠J♦ flop. A pained Yockey spent several minutes in the tank before deciding to fold and preserve the last of his chips.
