Connor Drinan

Catching the action on fourth street with a significant amount of chips already in the pot, Nick Schulman bet and Connor Drinan called.

On fifth street, Schulman bet 10,000 and Drinan called all in for 7,000 as each player's boards ran out as follows:

Schulman: {A-}{5-} / {3-}{10-}{A-}{6-} / {2-}
Drinan: {5-}{3-} / {4-}{Q-}{8-}{4-} / {5-}

With Drinan unable to beat Schulman's six-low, Drinan hit the rail as the first elimination of the day.

Kassela Drops Some to Duong

Level 11 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Duong: {X-}{X-} / {3-}{4-}{A-}{6-}
Kassela: {X-}{X-} / {6-}{k-}{5-}{Q-}

On third street, Jack Duong completed. Frank Kassela raised. Action folded back to Duong and he called. Then on fourth street, Duong bet.

"What the hell is this bullshit?" Kassela said laughing upon seeing his fourth street card, before tossing in a call.

On fifth street, Duong bet again.

"Now that's better," Kassela said. "But you didn't have to go and do that!" He pointed to Duong's ace on fifth, then called.

On sixth, Duong bet again, then Kassela gave it up.

"I would've shown you one of mine to see both of yours," Duong said.

Dark Bet?

Level 11 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Scott Clements completed and Eric Kurtzman made it 10,000. With action on Phil Hui next to act, he clicked it to 15,000 and Clements called. Kurtzman made it 20,000 and both Hui and Clements called.

Hui led fourth and only Kurtzman called before he took the betting lead firing out 10,000 on fifth, sixth, and seventh streets.

Clements: {X-}{X-} / {4-}{9-} (folded on fourth)
Kurtzman: {X-}{X-} / {5-}{A-}{8-}{9-} / {X-}
Hui: {X-}{X-} / {A-}{4-}{Q-}{Q-} / {X-}

"Dark bet?" asked Hui.

"Dark bet." confirmed Kurtzman.

Hui showed his {A-}{6-}{3-} and folded before uttering, "This is so frustrating!"

Kurtzman tabled his {7-}{7-}{3-} for an eight-seven low and scooped the pot.
