Here's an interesting one primarily involving Per Linde and Guy Gorelik.
The hand began with Sam Barnhart raising to 85,000 from the cutoff seat, then Linde called from the button. Next to act, Gorelik reraised to 285,000 from the small blind, forcing out the big blind. Both Barnhart and Linde called the reraise.
The flop came , and Gorelik led with a bet of 465,000. Barnhart got out, but Linde raised to 1 million from the button. Gorelik went deep into the tank, then finally emerged to fold his hand face up -- .
As he collected the chips, Linde seized the opportunity to show one of his hole cards -- the !
Gorelick now has about 1.6 million, while Linde pushes up to 4.7 million.
Over on the feature table, Konstantinos Mamaliadis raised to 90,000 before Michael DeGilio re-raised to 260,000. Mamaliadis called, then called DeGilio's bet of 160,000 after the flop of .
DeGilio then checked the turn of the and Mamaliadis opened for 385,000 before DeGilio check-shoved all-in. Mamaliadis snap-called.

DeGilio:
DeGilio had spiked two pair, but Mamaliadis was well out in front with his trip kings, which held after the blanked out on the river. DeGilio is now no longer with us, but Mamaliadis is now up to more than 5.7 million!
As the saying goes, "They're dropping like flies here," and Alex Moore happened to be one of those flies (figuratively speaking) to have been taken out at the secondary feature table.
It was one of those uber-cooler situations, only it was Moore that had the and Hinrichsen with the . Neither hand improved on the board of and we say goodbye to Mr. Moore. Mr. Hinrichsen will be hanging around for a while longer though - the Aussie's now on more than 3.5 million!
Marc-Andre Ladouceur opened from late position with a raise to 85,000, then Allen Cunningham reraised to 425,000 from the cutoff, leaving himself less than 100,000 behind. It folded back around to Ladouceur who reraised all in, and Cunningham called.
Ladouceur:
Cunningham:
The flop came , giving Cunningham even more cards to dodge as Ladouceur had picked up a gutshot draw. But the turn was the and river the , and Cunningham survived.
The five-time WSOP bracelet winner and fourth-place finisher in the 2006 Main Event doubles back to 1.15 million, while Ladouceur slips to 1.55 million.
Aleksandr Mozhnyakov opened for 85,000 from the cutoff, and Matt Giannetti called from the button. Bounahra Badih checked his cards in the small blind, then declared he was all in for his last 920,000, standing up and walking in a small circle behind his chair afterwards. The big blind folded, and after tanking Mozhnyakov said he was reraising all in, thus forcing out Giannetti.
Badih turned over and was happy to see Mozhnyakov's . The board came , and Badih doubled to almost 2 million. Mozhnyakov slips to about 4.9 million.
Nelson Robinson opened with a raise preflop and was three-bet by Niall Charlton. Robinson moved all in and was quickly called by Charlton.

Robinson:
The flop brought reassuring news for Charlton, as he was able to keep his lead when it fell . The turned and gave Charlton two pair, but also provided spade outs for Robinson. The river brought heartbreak for Charlton, as the peeled off, giving Robinson the winning flush and a double up that brought him to 2,400,000.
Pablo Ubierna opened the pot with a raise to 85,000, and Bryan Devonshire three-bet him to 255,000. Ubierna didn't spend too much time considering before he announced the all-in shove for just over 1.1 million, and Devonshire quickly called to put him at risk.
Showdown
Ubierna:
Devonshire:
The news was not at all good for Ubierna, but he soon found temporary salvation as the flop brought and the leading set of fives. The river was a blank, and Devo needed to find a two-outer to earn the knockout.
River:
Devonshire let out a beastly, "Yeah!" as he re-sucked to the knockout set of tens. It sends Ubierna off to the rail, and it boosts Devo up even further in the top ten, vaulting him up to 6.05 million by our eyeballs.
Just as the PokerNews Live Reporting Team were witnessing the end of Evan McNiff's tournament life, Fred Berger also had his run in the 2011 WSOP Main Event ended in just two bites.
Earlier, Ben Lamb came in with a raise worth 90,000 from the under the gun position and the action folded around to Berger who called from the button, along with Brian Yoon from the big blind to make it three-handed into a flop of .
Yoon checked to Lamb, who led out for 125,000, but Berger re-raised, making it 350,000 to go. Yoon shoved for 1.42 million, Lamb folded and Berger called.
Yoon:
Berger:
Despite Berger having taken the lead after the flop with top pair, Yoon still had a plethora of outs to both the straight and flush. Bink! Down came the on the turn, giving Yoon the wheel and the pot. Oh, and the river was the .
Down to just 270,000, he moved it into the middle into the cutoff in the very next hand holding , but JP Kelly iso-raised from the button, forcing the others out of the way before tabling .
Kelly then improved to two pair on the board of and that marked the end of Berger's time here in the Amazon Room.
Amazingly Doc Sands and his long-time girlfriend Erika Moutinho are both still in the Main Event with just 80 players remaining. Can we see the couple make the November Nine? Yesterday, we put Dave to the test of just how well he knows his lady.
