Hand #31: The action was folded to Michael Ruane on the button who raised to 750,000. Jack Sinclair folded his small blind and Bryan Piccioli called from the big blind. The flop came {a-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{2-Spades} and Piccioli checked. Ruane bet 1,100,000 and Piccioli stuck around to see the {j-Clubs} on the turn. Piccioli checked again and Ruane shipped all-in for 5,460,000. Piccioli gave it some thought but decided to lay his hand down.

Hand #32: Randy Pisane raised to 650,000 from under the gun and John Hesp called from early position. Jonas Mackoff also came along from the big blind. The flop came {8-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and Mackoff checked. Pisane bet 1,300,000 and Hesp min-raised to 2,600,000. Mackoff folded and Pisane called to go heads-up to the turn.

The {3-Hearts} landed on the turn and Pisane checked to Hesp who bet 2,600,000. Pisane called and the {10-Diamonds} completed the board. Pisane checked again and Hesp announced a bet of 4,000,000. Pisane thought for a minute before making the call and Hesp tabled {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}. Hesp made a flush and Pisane pushed his cards to the muck, sending Hesp a chip-leading pot.

Hand #33: Ruane raised to 750,000 from the hijack and Jack Sinclair called from the cutoff. Randy Pisane also called from the big blind and the flop came {j-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{2-Clubs}. The action was checked to Sinclair who bet 700,000. Pisane folded and Ruane called. The {3-Diamonds} came on the turn and both players checked to the {a-Diamonds} river card. Both players checked again and Ruane tabled {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}, good enough to earn him the pot.

Hand #34: Scott Stewart shoved all-in from under-the-gun for 4,820,000 and everyone passed. Stewart picked up the blinds and antes for his short stack.

Hand #35: Jonas Mackoff raised to 700,000 from the cutoff and the blinds folded.
