Robert Holtz made it 1,500 from early position and called when Matthias De Clercq three-bet to 4,100 from middle position.
Holtz check-called for 4,000 on the A♥10♠J♦ flop before the 3♦ turn checked through to the 9♥ river. Holtz checked once more and quickly called when De Clercq jammed for 20,000.
"Good call," said De Clercq as he tabled his K♦10♥ for a pair of tens. Holtz had A♦K♥ and scooped the pot with a pair of aces.
Riccardo Trevisani limped in from under the gun before Tyng Low accidentally made it 7,000. Like Moreno earlier, Low had confused the black chips for 100 instead of 5,000.
Trevisani then jammed as the big stack and Low called off for 53,000 total.
Tyng Low: A♥9♥
Riccardo Trevisani: A♠K♣
Low paired up on the 10x9x3x flop and held out to dent Trevisani's chances following the 5x turn and 10x river.
Andrew Moreno opened to 1,000 and was called by the middle position player and the button.
Moreno checked the 6♠5♦3♠ flop, prompting his first opponent to fire out 1,800. The button called before Moreno clicked it to 5,200. The middle position player folded. The button then jammed as the big stack, and Moreno called off the 28,500 he had behind.
Andrew Moreno: A♠10♠
Button: 6♥5♥
Moreno had a flush draw while the button had top two pair. The Q♠ gave Moreno the lead and he avoided his opponent filling up as the board completed with the 2♥.
Level: 5
Blinds: 300/500
Ante: 500
Ebony Kenney had just taken her seat and opened to 1,000 from middle position and was called by the button and small blind. Jordan Schneible also defended his big blind.
Kenney continued for 1,500 on the Q♥8♣5♠ flop and everyone called.
The K♦ turn then checked through to the 10♠ river. Schneible led out for 5,500 and only Kenney called.
Schneible tabled his J♦9♣ for a rivered straight and Kenney mucked.
Thomas Macey limped in from middle position before John Adderley made it 1,800 on his direct left. Alan Ferraro three-bet to 3,500 from the small blind, pushing out Macey. Adderley made it 8,500 and called when Ferraro jammed for 21,300.
Alan Ferraro: Q♣Q♥
John Adderley: A♠K♠
"Good luck," said Adderley to Ferraro, who have appeared to develop a rapport on Day 1c.
Ferraro's queens were never troubled and held out to double following the J♣8♣4♥3♠5♦ runout.
Sheng Chang limped in from middle position before Bert Geens made it 1,400 on his direct left. Action folded back to Chang and he called.
Chang check-called for 1,100 on the Q♣9♦2♠ flop before the 5♥ turn checked through to the 4♥ river. Chang led out for 1,600 and Geens called.
Chang tabled 10♣9♥ for a pair of nines and Geens mucked.
The cutoff opened to 800 before Andrew Moreno made it 7,000 from the button.
Some confusion followed as Moreno thought he had made it 2,100, thinking the black chips were worth 100 rather than 5,000.
It didn't matter as the cutoff folded.
Moreno noted that it is his first time playing here - so welcome to Golden Nugget Andrew!
