Ryan Bambrick raised in the hijack before James Chen three-bet on the button. The action folded back to Bambrick, who called.
Bambrick check-called a bet on both the 5♣7♦K♥ flop and the 2♣ turn before the action checked through on the 8♠ river.
Chen tabled A♠Q♥Q♣6♥, which was good for a quarter of the pot as Bambrick showed A♦A♣K♠6♣ for the same low but a better high.
Philip Sternheimer raised in the hijack, and Christian Harder defended his big blind. Harder check-called Sternheimer's bets on the A♦9♦8♠ flop and K♣ turn, after which the 6♥ river was checked to showdown.
Harder sheepishly showed a pair of deuces without a low, leaving Sternheimer to take the pot with A♥A♣8♥3♥ for top set.
Heads-up on a flop of 3♥Q♠3♠, Scott Clements bet from the hijack and Brian Yoon called on the button.
The turn was the 6♣ and Clements bet. Yoon again called to the 9♥ river, where Clements put out another bet. Yoon tanked for more than a minute before calling, and Clements showed K♦K♣3♦2♠ for trips to win the pot.
Phil Hellmuth still hasn't returned from the break.
James Chen raised in early position, and called when Matthew Wantman three-bet on the button.
The Q♥3♠2♦ flop saw Chen check-call another bet, but when Wantman did not relent on the 6♦ turn, Chen check-folded.
Christopher Vitch raised under the gun, seeing John Hennigan and Andrey Zhigalov call in the blinds.
The 5♥Q♦7♣ flop was checked to Vitch, who continued with a bet. Hennigan then raised, folding out Zhigalov, and Vitch responded with a three-bet. Hennigan was not done yet, however, and added a fourth bet.
Vitch called, and the A♦ was placed on the turn. Hennigan slowed down and check-called a bet from Vitch, and the same happened when the 3♠ river had completed the board.
Vitch tabled 5♠4♦3♥2♦ for the wheel, and Hennigan sighed as his cards hit the muck.
Ryan Bambrick raised in the small blind, James Chen three-bet in the big blind, and Bambrick called.
The flop came 9♣4♦8♦ and Chen bet. Bambrick called.
Both players checked down the A♠ turn and 10♥ river, and Chen turned over A♦K♠5♠4♥ for two pair. Bambrick flashed two queens as he mucked.
