Mike Watson had most of his stack in the middle against Max Pescatori going into seventh street.
Watson: /
Pescatori: /
When they got their last cards, Watson put in his remaining chips, and Pescatori showed him 
as he dropped in a call, having hit a straight on the river. Watson nodded and mucked, and the dealer exposed his 
for queens up.
"What a rush," Allen Kessler said.
"And I hope it continues," Pescatori replied.

The fatal hand was already over by the time we arrived, with Chris Ferguson leaving the table. Dimitrios Magdalinos was stacking new chips to add to his already-huge stack.
"Nice to meet you, sir," Magdalinos told Ferguson, who returned the compliment: "Nice playing with you."

Bonomo: /

Amarapu: /

Bohn: /

Ladny: 
We didn't see Ladny's cards until showdown, but he wound up with a mere pair of queens. Bonomo put in a fifth bet, and Amarapu tanked a bit and folded with a sigh. Bohn called with 
for a straight and a six-low. Bonomo had 
for a flush on the high end, and they chopped the pot, while Ladny was eliminated and Amarapu left short.

Charles Barker was all in, and Chris Ferguson ended up all in on sixth street, too. Walter Treccarichi was in good shape to score a double knockout.
Charles Barker: 
Walter Treccarichi: 
Chris Ferguson: 
/
Treccarichi had two pair, eights and fours, and an eight-seven low. Barker knew his tournament was over. Ferguson hoped for a tie. A six would earn him a winning high hand with a straight, while any deuce, three or four would earn him the best low. Ferguson found the for a low to chop with Treccarichi.

Allen Kessler just got his remaining chips in against Kevin Iacofano and had trip fives, waiting for Iacofano to sweat out his last card. Kessler was dodging a lot of outs, since Iacofano had four to a flush and four to a seven-low, but he rolled over a useless high brick on the end, and "Chainsaw" found a much-needed double.

What initially started as a three-way pot got eventually reduced to a battle between Ryan Hughes and Phil Hui as the other player folded on fifth street where Hughes led out. Hui remained in the contest, calling. Hughes paired his ace on sixth and continued betting, and Hui stuck around with three low cards on his board.
Phil Hui: / /
Ryan Hughes: / /
They made it to showdown, and Hughes announced, "Aces up," rolling over 
for his hole cards. Hui failed to make a low, and he couldn't beat two pair either, ending up scooped.
