Cards were on their backs and the full board read 7♦8♦2♠4♠10♠.
James Chen showed A♦10♦10♣3♠ for a rivered set of tens to beat Chris Tryba out of the high, but Tryba would show A♣Q♣J♥3♠ to share the seventy-four low, entitling him to a quarter of the pot.
With most of his shorter stack already invested prior to and after the 10♠5♦3♣, Yong Wang was all-in for 11,000 out of the small blind on the J♥ turn. Johannes Becker called out of the big blind and so did Ari Engel in the cutoff. The K♣ on the river was checked through by the two active players.
Becker showed his A♠Q♣8♣2♠ for broadway while Engel exposed his 4♥3♥2♦2♣ for a missed low wrap. Wang then slowly rolled over his A♥Q♥Q♦7♣ for broadway and chopped the entire pot with Becker.
Not long ago, David Williams had misread his hand and didn't see a straight against the set of aces of Bryce Yockey, who joked back "I wish you wouldn't have tabled it". Since then, Williams had been chipping up while Yockey dropped to a shorter stack.
In the latest hand, Williams called bets by Robert Campbell on a 10♣8♣2♥5♣10♦ board and his A♦A♥Q♦3♠ was good for the low, as Campbell had the A♣K♥J♣7♥ for an inferior low but ace-high flush.
Having defended out of the blinds against a raise by Nacho Barbero, Christopher Stephan and Robert Yass check-called bets on the K♦Q♠7♣ flop and 8♥ turn. They both checked the 3♦ on the river and Barbero bet again.
Only Stephen called while Yass folded and Barbero jumped out of his chair in excitement. "Finally I scoop a pot after getting scooped all day!" he exclaimed as he exposed his A♠Q♣Q♥4♠ for a set of queens and second nut low.
"What if he shows you ace-deuce?" another player remarked and Barbero instantly replied: "I bet you a million dollars he doesn't have ace-deuce." That bet was not verbally accepted but Barbero's read was right, as Stephan tossed the cards into the muck.
In a hand against Craig Chait, Erik Seidel, and Pascal Leyo, George Wolff showed down K♠J♥9♣6♦ on a board that read 4♣10♦Q♦9♦Q♥, for king-high straight, which was good enough to take it down.
The remaining players in the hand all mucked face down.
In three-way action, Erik Seidel bet all the way on a board of 8♠4♠3♣Q♥6♠. Craig Chait folded on the river while Steve Chanthabouasy reluctantly called and Seidel then tabled his A♦Q♠J♥5♠ for a queen-high flush and six-low. That was good enough for the scoop as Chanthabouasy briefly exposed an inferior flush and low with the 5♣5♥2♠Xx.
After the hand was over, Brad Ruben was moved over to table 138 to balance as Van Law and Benjamin Gold had been eliminated. Mike Gorodinsky also lost the last of his short stack moments later and that reduced the field to the last 44 hopefuls.
A short-stacked Brandon Shack-Harris was all-in after the J♣6♥5♦ flop for 18,000 and a side pot played out between Christopher Stephan and Nacho Barbero. They continued to get bets in after the 3♣ turn and Q♦ river as the cards were exposed.
Shack-Harris' A♠Q♣8♦4♥ for a pair of queens and second nut low was scooped, as Stephan's A♦J♦4♦2♦ had a straight and nut low. Barbero chopped the low with A♣8♣3♥2♣ as Stephan won most of the chips throughout the hand.
Three ways to the J♠9♦8♦ flop, the action checked to James Chen (US) on the button and he bet for Yarron Bendor and James Chen (Taiwan) to check-call. Bendor then bet the J♦ turn and Chen (US) was the only caller, doing so again on the 3♥ river.
Bendor tabled A♦5♦3♦Xx for the nut flush and a low to scoop the entire pot.
