Eddy Sabat made it 18,000 in the cutoff, and Marc Alioto three bet it to 42,000 on the button. It got back to Sabat, and he made the call to send us to what would turn out to be an action packed flop of 
. Sabat checked to Alioto, who fired out 43,000. Sabat elected to check raise all in, and Alioto snap called for his last 185,000. If you think you know what Alioto had....guess again.
Sabat: 
Alioto: 
Sabat's eights were still out in front of Alioto's ace high, and when the board completed 
and 
, he collected the huge pot to get all the way up to 793,000. With that elimination, we are down to the final 18, and the players are redrawing for seats.

Scott Clements made it 16,000 to go in the cutoff, and Gary Pearce shoved the rest of his 83,000 into the middle. When it got back around to Clements, he made the call.
Clements: 
Pearce: 
The 
flop didn't pair Pearce, but he did pick up a ten for an out as well. The on the turn was an interesting card. Pearce's pair outs were gone now, but he could now pick up another club or a ten to win the pot. How about hitting both? The 
hit the river, giving Pearce the double to 179,000, while Scott Clements fell to 308,000.

Marcio Cid will not go quietly into the Las Vegas night. Despite riding a short stack for much of the second half of the day, Cid has hung around, and just secured a crucial double up from Jeff Lisandro. Lisandro made it 12,000 from under the gun, and Cid shipped it in from the small blind for 104,000. When it got back around to Lisandro, he elected to make the call.
Lisandro:
Cid: 
The hand was all but over after the flop, which came down 
. Lisandro would need a queen and ten run out to win the hand, but instead, the dealer put out the 
and the 
. Cid doubled to 225,000, while Lisandro dropped to 174,000.

The action certainly isn't slowing down as we reach the final 90 minutes of play today. Tuan Le made it 13,000 to go, and Thom Werthmann made it 25,000 to go on the button. Le then four bet shoved, having Werthmann covered, and Werthmann called him off.
Werthmann: 
Le: 
Werthmann shot out to the lead when the flop came 
, but the turn was as bad a non-six card as Werthmann could see, the 
. This gave Le an open ended straight draw and a flush draw, but as it turned out, he wouldn't need any of those outs, as the 
hit the river, giving Le a set and knocking Werthmann out.
After that pot, Le, who is one of the most seasoned and accomplished pros left in this field, is one of our leaders with 670,000.

We just reported on a six bet all in preflop hand between Jacob Bazeley and Roman Valerstein, and it just so happens that we had another huge six bet shove and call at another table involving Levi Berger and James Carroll. Carroll raised it up in middle position, and Berger three bet it to 31,000 from the big blind. Carroll cut out a four bet to 56,500, and Berger decided that it was time for a five bet. He put 105,000 in the middle, and when it got back to Carroll, he six bet shoved. Berger called off his last 264,000, and saw that he was in a world of hurt.
Berger: 
Carroll:
Carroll was in great shape to pick up a pot that would put him in second place, and he kept the lead on the 
. However, the turn brought the brutal two outer, 
, and suddenly, the tables had flipped dramatically. The river brought the , and a mountain of chips was sent over to Berger, who now has 550,000. Meanwhile, Carroll has been knocked down all the way to 97,000.

We just a huge raising war preflop that saw six bets get into the middle for all of the chips. Jacob Bazeley made it 10,000 to go from under the gun, and Roman Valerstein three bet it to 28,500 from the big blind. It got back around to Bazeley, and he gave it some thought before four betting it to 48,000. Undeterred, Valerstein five bet it to 100,500, and when it got back to Bazeley, he six bet shoved for 260,500, and Valerstein made the call, making for a pot of nearly 600,000.
Bazeley: 
Valerstein:
There was a ton of tension going to the flop, and after all the excitement and build up, it was all but over in a flash when the flop came . Valerstein could only catch running hearts for the win or running ten and eight to chop, but the was neither of those. The river was the , and when the stacks were broken down, Bazeley had doubled to 560,000, while Valerstein was left with just 53,000.
Shortly after, Valerstein busted when his 
ran into the of Mickey Petersen when the chips all went in preflop. The board came ten high, and just like that, Valerstein's day was done.
