A very short stacked Joe Cada open-shoved 79,000 from the cutoff and Joris Ruijs called in the big blind. Cada showed {A-}{9-} and was outkicked by Ruijs' {A-}{10-}.

The dealer fanned out a {4-}{6-}{8-}{J-}{3-} board and the 2009 Main Event winner was eliminated in 948th place ($16.024).

Ruijs won some more pots afterward and currently sits at 735,000.

"I Make Four Jacks. Every Time!"

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

With about 80,000 in the pot, on a board reading {k-Spades}{q-Hearts}{j-Spades}, a player in early position checked and Daniel Turner made it 40,000 to go on the button. His opponent called.

The turn was the {3-Spades}. The early-position player checked and Turner bet 95,000 this time. His opponent asked for a count and eventually open-folded {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} for a pair of tens and an open-ended straight draw. Turner showed {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} for a set of jacks and raked in the pot.

While Turner was stacking his chips a player at the table asked, "If he goes all-in what do you do?" Turner replied, "Oh I call." The player asked, "What if he had ace-ten of spades?" Turned exclaimed, "I make four jacks. Every time!"

With about 100,000 chips already in the middle on a flop of {9-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{3-Clubs}, a player in middle position checked to Dominik Nitsche in the cutoff and he bet 40,000. The middle-position player called.

The turn brought the {9-Spades} and Nitsche's opponent checked. Nitsche checked behind.

The river was the {Q-Clubs} and Nitsche's opponent checked. After some consideration, Nitsche checked behind and his opponent mucked instantly. After confirming with the dealer that he didn't have to show his hand, Nitsche mucked too and took the chips which put his stack over the 1,000,000-chip mark.

Thai Ha Spins it Up Early

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Thai Ha started the day with 42,000 and has already found two double-ups.

Sitting on 105,000, Ha moved all in from the hijack and was called by the player in the cutoff.

Ha was at risk and slightly ahead with {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}, up against {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}.

The board ran out {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{8-Spades} and Ha found yet another double early in the day.

Glantz Keeps Firing

Level 16 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

With a substantial pot of about 60,000 already brewing and the board reading {7-Spades}{4-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{5-Hearts}, action checked to Matt Glantz on the button and he bet 45,000. The big blind called.

The river brought the {2-Diamonds} and the big blind checked. Glantz bet 115,000 and his opponent went into the tank. After verifying the bet, he cut out calling chips but didn't move them forward. A couple of minutes passed and a player called the clock, but almost as soon as a tournament official arrived at the table, the big blind frustratedly threw his cards into the muck and Glantz took the pot.
