Matt Ryan just wrested the chip lead from Joe Monro in a massive pot. After Ryan bet out on a ![]()
![]()
flop, Monro raised him. Ryan repotted, and the two got it all in.
Ryan: ![]()
![]()
![]()
Monro: ![]()
![]()
![]()
Ryan had flopped a monster with two nut draws and bottom two, but he trailed Monro's set of queens. Things flipped on the
turn, which gave Ryan a straight. Monro's outs were slim with Ryan holding two blockers, and the

We missed the preflop action, but we do know that Nick Kallenbach got his short stack all in while Greg Merson and Allan Le created a side pot.
When the flop came down ![]()
![]()
, Merson bet the pot and Le shook his head before folding.
"I have quads," Merson joked and tabled his hand — ![]()
![]()
![]()
. If he could use three cards from his hand he would have had quads, but as it stood he found the case ace to make top set. Merson took down the side pot, but there was still 40,000 or so in the main. Kallenbach tabled the ![]()
![]()
![]()
for a flush draw, and he actually hit it on the
turn.
Kallenbach just needed to avoid the board pairing on the river to more than triple, which he did when the
peeled off.

![]()
flop. Paterson pushed all in, and Rosenberg called.
Rosenberg: ![]()
![]()
![]()
Paterson: ![]()

It was a classic Pot-Limit Omaha spot, as Rosenberg had top set but Paterson had heaps of outs with a combo draw to the nuts and a draw to a higher set. He hit two of his outs as the
was followed by the
.
"Whaddya gonna do?" Rosenberg asked rhetorically before wishing the other players good luck.
With the concurrent elimination of Leif Force at a neighboring table, the players are redrawing for the final three tables.
