Dario Sammartino and Kenny Hallaert, two of the big names remaining on Day 5, have landed themselves on the same table. Sammartino opened to 45,000 from early position and Hallaert three-bet to 160,000. Sammartino called and the flop came .
Sammartino checked to Hallaert who bet 125,000 and Sammartino stuck around to see the turn card. The landed on the turn and Sammartino checked again. Hallaert made a bet of 265,000 and Sammartino called again.
The river brought the and Sammartino checked one more time. Hallaert thought for a couple minutes before moving a bet of 675,000 into the pot. Now it was Sammartino's turn to think, as he tanked for nearly five minutes before tossing in a single chip to call. Hallaert's cards went straight to the muck and Sammartino tabled
for just ace high.
This is surely not going to be the last hand these two get involved in, and we will be sure to keep a close eye on these players throughout the day.

Christian Pham jumped out of his seat to celebrate and his chair fell over, he then came back and added, "That's so bad."
Pham had moved all in after the with
for bottom pair only and table neighbor Joshua Tieman called with
for a set of eights. Nothing could win Pham the pot. His only hope was to chop.
The river ensured a split pot and Tieman could not believe his misfortune. "I only shoved because I played with him on Day 1. Good call man," Pham said to Tieman, who didn't blink or say a word, staring at the middle of the board.

With already more than 400,000 in the pot, Caufman Talley and Paul Senat faced off with Talley in the small blind and Senat in the cutoff.
The flop came down and Talley thought for a bit, asked Senat how much he was playing, then decided to check. Senat made a bet of 275,000. Talley moved all in with a slightly covering stack, and Senat stood up from his chair.
"Oh man," Senat said. "Here we go. Call."
Talley was holding but he was crushed by Senat's
.
"Keep it clear," Senat said to the dealer. "Let's go!"
The turn was the keeping Senat in the clear. "One more, baby. Let's go," Senat continued. The river was the
and that improved Senat to a full house. He gave a fist pump as the dealer counted out his chips.
"We back in this now. Let's go, baby!" Senat said.
Meanwhile, Talley was left with crumbs — just under 200,000. He stayed quiet through the ordeal and just cut out the chips to send over.
