We caught a hand that saw Noah Schwartz all-in with in the cutoff and Ludovic Geilich looking for some help from the board as held on the button. The board ran and the pot was chopped.
The next hand, Schwartz raised to 800 and Geilich three-bet to 2,100. Schwartz called and then checked the flop. Geilich rarely needs a reason to bet and he made it 2,300 to play, but then quickly folded when Schwartz check-raised to 5,300.
The player in the cutoff raised to 700 and Ireland's Jude Ainsworth three-bet to 2,000 from the small blind. Next to act was Dan Kelly in the big blind and he put a four-bet into play worth 4,500. The cutoff instantly folded and Ainsworth followed suit.
Maria Ho's sitting with 26,000 and looking very comfortable. She's sharing a table with former professional soccer player, Steve Watts, who has 22,300 chips.
We didn't get the full story, but it sounds like Matt Affleck and his pocket kings may have gotten it in bad against his opponent, but came back for the win. "I really wanted to see him with all those chips and not you, to be honest," Eli Elezra mentioned as Affleck stacked his chips.
David "The Dragon" Pham checked from the small blind on the flop, putting the action on the United Kingdom's Liv Boeree in the big blind. Boeree bet 300 and then quickly called when Pham check-raised to 725. The turn was the and Pham led for 1,100. Again, Boeree called.
Pham then bet 2,950 on the river, which left him only 2,025 chips behind. Boeree then moved all-in for 5,575 and Pham looked perplexed. He looked at his hole cards at least five times before sending them back to the dealer.
Boeree showed for a complete air and is now up to 12,675 chips.
It appears the tournament has lost two talented players in the shape of Ben Dobson and Jackie Glazier. Dobson's seat is empty while we spotted Australia's Glazier on the rail texting, so it is safe to assume she's recently departed.
