27 players will be in the money.
Viktor Blom bet from the small blind after the first draw and Michael Moncek called in the big blind.
Both players drew one and Blom led out with another bet. Moncek called, and they each stood pat. Blom bet again, and Moncek called.
Blom showed 8x6x4x3x2x, and Moncek mucked.
Jerry Wong bet from the big blind after the second draw and Steve Zolotow called in the small blind.
Both players drew one and Wong bet again. Zolotow then came back with a raise.
"I made it, too," Wong said as he leaned back in his seat before calling. Zolotow turned over 7x6x5x3x2x, and Wong mucked.
Hal Rotholz raised on the button, Brandon Shack-Harris three-bet from the small blind, Viktor Blom made it four bets in the big blind, and both opponents called.
Shack-Harris drew two, Blom drew two, and Rotholz drew one, and the action checked through.
On the second draw, Shack-Harris took two while the others took one. Blom led from the big blind and both opponents called.
Shack-Harris drew one, Blom was pat, and Rotholz still needed one on the final draw as the action checked through again. Shack-Harris showed a jack, Blom tabled 10x8x7x3x2x, and Rotholz showed 6x6x5x4x2x for a pair of sixes, leaving Blom's ten the best hand as he collected a substantial pot multi-way.
Michael Falk raised in the cutoff and Andrew Yeh called on the button. Tommy Hang then three-bet in the small blind, and both opponents called.
Hang took one, while Yeh and Falk took two. Hang then bet, and both Yeh and Falk called.
All three players drew one. Action checked around to Yeh who bet, and Hang raised. Falk folded, while Yeh took a minute before also sending his cards into the muck as Hang took the pot.
"Was that a bob or a weaver?" tablemate Scott Seiver said to him.
Michael Falk raised from the hijack, Andrew Yeh three-bet from the cutoff, and Falk called.
Falk drew three and Yeh drew two, after which Falk check-called a bet.
On the second draw, both took one and it checked through.
The same occurred on the final draw with two checks following again.
Michael Falk: 7x4x4x3x2x
Andrew Yeh: 7x5x3x2x2x
Both players had paired on the final draw, but Yeh's deuces were best.
Action picked up on the second draw with Ray Henson taking one from the small blind and Hal Rotholz also taking one from the big blind.
Henson led, Rotholz raised, and Henson called.
On the final draw, Henson still needed one while Rotholz patted behind. Henson checked to Rotholz who bet, and Henson quickly called. Rotholz shook his head as he showed Qx9x5x4x3x, prompting Henson to reveal 8x7x4x3x2x, and his eight-seven was the winner.
Anderson Ireland bet from the button after the first draw and Daniel Blum called in the cutoff.
Both players drew one and Ireland bet again. Blum called all in for 7,000 and drew one, while Ireland stood pat.
Ireland showed 9x6x4x3x2x, while Blum was drawing with 8x7x6x2x. He peeled his last card and turned over a 3x to win the pot and double up.
"Yep. Tale as old as time," Ireland said.
Brian Tate raised in the hijack and was called by Todd Brunson and Billy Baxter in the blinds.
Brunson and Baxter drew two and Tate one. Tate then bet, and both opponents called.
Tate stood pat, while Brunson took two and Baxter one. Brunson folded, while Baxter came back with a raise. Tate called, and they both stood pat.
Baxter then bet and Tate called. Baxter turned over 7x6x5x4x2x, and Tate mucked as the start-of-day chip leader dropped below 100,000.
