Brock Parker Leaves Jan-Eric Schwippert Short

Level 2 : 200/400, 0 ante

With the board reading {K-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{10-Spades}, Brock Parker's stack was being counted down so that Jan-Eric Schwippert could match it.

Parker had {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds} against the {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} of Schwippert. Parker's stack totaled 47,200, so Schwippert was left with just 5,600.

"I've been running really good this summer. I don't know how I lost that," Schwippert joked after the hand.

The river was the {9-Hearts} and Peters bet out 12,500. Paur called.

Peters showed {K-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} for two pairs, but it was no good against Paur's {5-Clubs}{3-Spades} for a straight.

Markus Gonsalves is the First to Advance to Round of 64

Level 1 : 200/300, 0 ante

Markus Gonsalves raised to 700 from the button and Brandon Steven called from the big blind.

The flop was {10-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{4-Clubs} and Steven checked to Gonsalves who continued for 700. Steven check-raised to 2,000, Gonsalves reraised to 5,700, Steven reraised to 10,200, and Gonsalves called.

The turn was the {9-Spades} and Steven bet 10,000. Gonsalves raised all in with a slightly larger stack, and Steven tanked for nearly six minutes before he called.

Gonsalves tabled {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades} for top set, Steven mucked his hand, and the inconsequential {A-Clubs} river officially locked up the match for Gonsalves.
