There was a little bit of drama at the redraw because most of the players were redrawn in the same seats, as is the luck of the draw. Jack Effel was called in and he ruled that a second redraw take place, and this is the result.

Heinz Kamutzki opened for 24,000 under the gun and was met by a three-bet to 62,000 from Bill Burford in the cutoff. The button and both blinds folded, and then Kamutzki pushed back by moving all in for 262,000. Burford called and probably wished he didn't.
Kamutzki:
Burford:
Kamutzki held the dominant hand, and there would be no tomfoolery as the board ran out a clean .
Phil Hellmuth and Gabriel Andrade had choice words for one another earlier in the tournament, but the two-table redraw separated them. There was a chance they would be reunited, but any hope of that happening just came to an end courtesy of Heinz Kamutzki.
It happened when Kamutzki opened for 24,000 in the hijack and Andrade shipped all in for 100,000 from the small blind. The big folded and Kamutzki made a quick call.
Kamutzki:
Andrade:
Andrade was in trouble with his inferior kicker, and the man prone to practice his golf swing in between hands stood to watch his fate. The flop provided no help, but the turn did as Andrade picked up both a flush draw and chop outs. Unfortunately for him the blanked on the river and he was sent back to the driving range.
There has been plenty of raising and three-betting going on but not many flops being played.
One hand saw Mark Darner open to 26,000 and Tony Ruberto three-bet all-in from the next seat across. Darner looked like he could call, but didn't pull the trigger.
On the other table, Davidi Kitai opened to 28,000 and then tank-folded when Vladimir Geshkenbein reraised to 82,000 when next to act.
Zachary Korik set the price to play at 26,000 from under the gun and was called by Tony Ruberto in the small blind. Heinz Kamutzki was in the big blind and he checked the stack sizes of both Korik and Ruberto before announcing he was all-in.
Korik folded, as did Ruberto shortly after.
"You're being quiet now?" asked Ruberto to Kamutzki. "You've not stopped talking all day and now you're quiet."
Kamutzki and Ruberto started chatting among themselves eventually asking what each other held in the hand. Kamutzki claimed to have pocket aces, but then admitted he was lying.
"You're a bad person," joked Ruberto, "You'll go to hell faster for lying!"
Their table is being played in good spirits, much like live poker should be.
Mark Darner opened for 26,000 from the button and Tony Ruberto announced that he was all in for 211,000 from the small blind. The big got out of the way and Darner asked for a count before making the call.
Darner:
Ruberto:
On the day the Belmont Stakes is being held, it was only fitting that the hand was a race. Fortunately for Ruberto, he ran like California Chrome and secured the double after the board ran out .
It was three-handed to the flop, a flop that Zachary Korik checked from the small blind. Next to act was Bill Burford in the big blind and he took a 42,000 stab at the pot. Tony Ruberto, on the button, didn't buy Burford's story and raised to 100,000.
Korik folded before Burford followed suit, albeit after some dwelling on his decision.
