Action picked up on the river in a hand between Gary Melnick in the hijack and Yan Tsang in the big blind.
With over 8,000 in the middle and the board reading A♦6♦2♠5♣J♠, Tsang led out with a bet of 4,000 and Melnick raised to 12,000.
After some consideration, Tsang gave up his hand and Melnick showed J♣J♥ for three of a kind, jacks.
Dwayne Wagner bet 5,500 from early position on a flop of Q♣9♣3♠ and Justin Tseng moved all in for 10,000 in the small blind. Wagner quickly called.
Justin Tseng: 10♣9♦ 
Dwayne Wagner: K♣7♣
Tseng was ahead with a pair of nines, while Tseng was on a flush draw. The 10♦ turn improved Tseng to two pair, while the K♠ arrived on the river too late for Wagner to avoid handing over the double up.
Gerald Peltola was all in and at risk for about ten big blinds in a hand against Sanghee Lee, who had him covered.
Gerald Peltola: A♦8♦
Sanghee Lee: 7♣7♦
Peltola found an eight on the 10♦8♣10♠ flop to pull ahead. The 3♠ turn and Q♠ rivered earned him the much needed double up.
Nível: 5
Blinds: 300/600
Ante: 600
Players are going on the first 15-minute break of the day.
The field has grown to 264 entries so far, with 214 players remaining.
The under-the-gun player raised to 1,500, Anthony Kraus flatted on the button, and Sara Ralston defended in the big blind.
The flop of A♠4♣J♦ checked through to the A♣ turn. Ralston led out with a bet of 1,500, prompting a fold from under the gun and a call from Kraus.
Action went check-check on the 4♠ river and Ralston tabled 6♥6♠, besting the K♣Q♣ of Kraus.
Meraf Tedla was all in for 8,000 from the button, Jennifer Frankenstein moved all in for 12,100 in middle position, and Fong Yang in early position put both players at risk.
Meraf Tedla: Q♣Q♥
Jennifer Frankenstein: A♥J♣
Fong Yang: A♥J♣
The flop came 10♦6♥5♥ to keep Tedla's queens in the lead, but Frankenstein spiked the 7♠ on the turn to make a set. "My birthday," she yelled out.
"I knew it was coming, baby," tablemate Ashley Jenkins added. The river was the 3♥ and Frankenstein scooped the pot to double up off Yang and send Tedla to the rail.
In a three-way pot on a flop of 5♥3♥A♥, Alex Goya bet 4,000 and only Irene Carey called.
Carey then led out for 5,500 on the 5♦ turn and Goya raised to 11,000. Carey called. Carey checked on the Q♦ river and Goya checked back.
Carey showed K♥10♠ for a missed flush and Goya turned over 7♦7♥ to win the pot with a pair of sevens.
Jacques Davidson moved all in for 10,200 from the button and Yang Lu called in middle position.
Jacques Davidson: A♣10♦
Yang Lu: A♠K♣
The J♥6♣J♦ flop left open the possibility of a chop, but the board ran out 3♦9♣ and Lu's king-kicker played to send Davidson to the rail.
