Joshua Mammon had the and was all in for about 9,000, facing Ian Shaw with the .
Shaw had kings in the hole while Mammon had ace-deuce for three low cards. Shaw spiked another ace on fourth for aces and kings, but Mammon found the help he needed as he hit a five and a three on his board to complete a wheel. Shaw couldn't recover for the high part of the pot as his hand failed to improve into a full house.

Ted Forrest has been decorated with a WSOP bracelet more times than any other player in the remaining field. And it's a very talented field.
Forrest won three bracelets in 1993, added two more in 2004, and one in 2014. He's now looking to tie Billy Baxter and Men Nguyen with seven.
With his last 5,400 behind and his tournament life on the line at the beginning of the last level, Forrest scored a double to get back in contention. Now he's maneuvering about 95,000.
Forrest has two bracelets from seven-card stud and two from razz, but he's yet to earn one from the split-pot stud game. Experienced more than anyone, Forrest must certainly be considered as one of the favorites.

Couden was in good shape with a pair, four to a low, and a four-flush. Holley snagged a useless but then pulled a to make fours up. Couden had a on sixth and therefore needed improvement on seventh. He showed a for better two pairs and a scoop.
"You didn't want to bust me yet," he said.

Jeff Madsen was leading the $1,500 Stud Hi-Lo at the end of Day 1 and the 2006 WSOP Player of the Year is still rocking. He just crippled John Kim, leaving him with less than one big bet left.
Kim had open queens, but Madsen had eights and his hole cards were all heavily connected to his board.
John Kim: / /
Jeff Madsen: / /
Madsen certainly liked his runout on from fourth street, as he found in his hole. "Full house," he confirmed, showing his hand that put Kim close to the bottom line.
