Benny Glaser opened to 1,750. Jared Bleznick called in the small blind and Jason Gooch announced "pot" from the big blind. Glaser was all in for 2,900 and Bleznick called from the small blind.
The flop was 
and both remaining players got it in.
Gooch: 
Bleznick: 
Glaser: 
- double suited, no diamonds
Bleznick was ahead with trip threes, but the 
on the turn gave Gooch the lead. The 
on the river meant that there was no low draw and Gooch scooped.
"You had an ace right," asked Bleznick of Glaser as they both got up from the table, "That's a one-outer!" he exclaimed.
"What," said Gooch, "You've never been one-outed before?"
Bleznick aggressively shoved his chip stack into the middle of the table, and left the tournament area.

It's been a roller-coaster time for Jason Mercier. First we saw him double up an opponent when he held 
on 
against his opponent's 
. Then, on our next visit to his table he was doubling up himself.
However, his quick jaunt in the $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo was put to an end by Darryl Dauenhauer who held flush and low draws on a double-paired board. The Ace on the river was enough to take down the pot, and eliminate Jason Mercier who did not show.

In a five-way limped pot, Daniel Negreanu bet the 
flop. A second player moved all in and a third player moved in over the top. It folded back to Negreanu who moved all in and was at risk.
Negreanu: 
Player two: 
Player three: 
The third player was calling for a "little card" to complete her low draw, while Negreanu was asking for a ten or a jack to give him a full house. The turn was the 
and the river the 
, meaning Negreanu was eliminated, with the two other players dividing up his stack between them.
