Level 9
: 3,000/6,000, 500 ante
Ryan Hughes had 
up on fourth street and bet double with Randy Ohel showing 
. That chased away a third player, but Ohel called after thinking awhile. Hughes bet again on fifth, and Ohel raised. Hughes put his remaining chips in to get himself all in.
Hughes: 
/
Ohel: 
/
Ohel had two pair and blockers, so he was in solid shape. Hughes did not find another heart for a flush, and Ohel eliminated the current WSOP Player of the Year points leader.

Level 9

Bertrand Grospellier bet into two opponents with his ace-high board on fifth street and got two calls, but Dan Zack picked up a very scary four-straight on sixth and took the lead.

Third player: /
Grospellier called, with the third player folding. On the river, both Zack and Grospellier checked. The latter showed a 
for one pair, but Zack had it beat with
