A raising war preflop began the hand when Julien Sitbon's re-raise to 19,000 was met with a four-bet from Adrian Mateos to 45,000. Sitbon came along with a call.
Sitbon led out for 20,000 on the Q♦3♥6♠ flop, and Mateos called.
Sitbon checked, and Mateos bet 15,000 on the 3♣ turn, which led to a call from Sitbon.
Both players checked the 10♥ river.
Sitbon showed Q♥Q♣ for a full house to win the pot.
Matthew Wantman raised in the cutoff to 6,000 and Robert Natividad called on the button.
Wantman continued for 5,500 on the 10♥4♦J♠ flop and Natividad called. Wantman slowed down on the A♠ turn, check-calling a bet of 12,500 from Natividad.
The 2♣ river did very little to change the board and both players checked.
Wantman showed down A♦Q♥, which was enough to lay claim to the pot.
Daniel Sepiol and Landon Tice were in the blinds and went heads-up to a flop of K♣7♦5♠. With around 70,000 in the middle, Sepiol led out with a bet of 18,000 from the small blind. Tice called from the big blind and the 2♥ hit the turn.
Both players checked this time and the A♠ completed the board. Sepiol announced all in for just over 75,000 and Tice instanly sent his cards into the muck.
The action began with a raise from Ryan Mandara to 6,000. The bet was called on the button by Paulius Vaitiekunas before Matthew Mcewan raised it to 24,000 from the big blind.
Mandara came along with a call and Vaitiekunas folded.
Mcewan bet 12,000 on the K♦4♦8♣ flop and Mandara called.
The 10♣ turn led to a check from Mcewan. Mandara gave it some thought before jamming on the turn. Mcewan tossed his cards into the muck.
After a couple of preflop raises, Daniel Negreanu and Javier Gomez got all of their chips in the middle with Negreanu being the player at risk for a bit over 100,000.
Daniel Negreanu: 9♥9♦
Javier Gomez: A♦Q♠
A coin flip preflop resulted in a Gomez win after the board ran out Q♣7♥4♣7♣J♣ and Negreanu was eliminated for the time being.
"I'm ready to rebuy!" Negreanu shouted as he quickly jumped back in the field.
Alexandros Theologis opened the hand with a raise to 6,000 from the cutoff. Byron Kaverman called from the button, and Dohyeok Kim came along from the big blind.
All three players checked the A♦2♦9♥ flop.
Kim checked the 5♠ turn before Theologis fired 5,500, which caused Kaverman to fold.
Kim called the turn bet, which brought the 10♣ river. Kim checked, and Theologis fired 22,000. Kim called and Theologis showed A♠7♣ to take down the pot.
With 97,000 chips in the middle and a board showing 4♦2♠J♦Q♦, Dylan Linde slid out a stack of chips, enough to put Ian Matakis all in, should he decide to call.
Matakis took his time to consider the options, but after using two time banks, he chose to call.
Ian Matakis: 8♦8♥
Dylan Linde: A♥K♦
Matakis had made the correct call, but Linde still had many outs to take the lead. The 8♣ wasn't one of them, though, and Matakis found the full double up.
