Here's something that you probably already knew. Chris Moorman is an action player. We figured with the money bubble looming that he would be getting involved in a lot of pots, and so far, he hasn't disappointed.
In the first hand, we saw Blaz Svara raise it up to 2,100, and Cliff Goldkind call from the button. Moorman was in the small blind, and he put in a three bet to 7,500. Svara folded after about a minute of thought, but Goldkind stuck around for the call. The flop came down 
, and Moorman fired out 7,700. He was called, and the turn brought the 
. Again Moorman fired out, this time for 12,500, and Goldkind tanked for a minute or so before calling.
The river was the , and Moorman slowed down and checked this time. Goldkind decided to go all in, a move that would cost Moorman almost all of his chips if he lost. Moorman thought for about a minute, rechecked his hole cards, then sent them to the dealer, giving the pot to Goldkind.
Just a couple of hands later, we caught river action between Moorman and Thom Werthmann The board had completed 
, and Moorman had fired out a pot sized bet of 18,000. This was for virtually all of Werthmann's chips, as he would have just 2,000 left after. Eventually, he slid in the call, and Moorman rolled over 
for trip eights. Werthmann mucked, and busted shortly after.

Paradis: 
Meeks: 
Paradis would need a king to knockout Meeks and his set of nines. No king came as the board banged out 
and then the 
. Meeks doubled to 60,000 while Paradis is down to 20,200.

John Beauprez was hoping to win back-to-back bracelets after winning the $1,500 Six Max just a few days ago, but he came back fairly short and was ready to get it in the middle. Well that happened in one of the first few hands of the day, and while we didn't catch it, he did tweet the details.

Mike Leah came into today with just over 14 big blinds, so we knew he would be ready to get it in. Sure enough, he moved all in from under the gun on the first hand of the day, and when it got to the big blind, Thad Smith, he made the call.
Leah:
