Picking things up after the first draw Zack Freeman checked and Dustin Dirksen bet. John Hennigan, who in the previous hand had let out a startled scream as he thought the dealer was about to turn over a flop when he was in fact delivering three cards to Ryan Goindoo, moved all in for 40,000. Both opponents called and each player drew one.

Freeman check-called again after the second draw and drew one with Hennigan and Dirksen stood pat. Freeman then check-folded after the third draw and Dirksen showed 7♦ / 6♠5♥4♦2♣ for a seven low and six badugi to best the six-time bracelet winner and Poker Hall of Famer's A♣ / 9♠7♥5♦4♣.

Goindoo had run his kings into aces and couldn't improve as the board ran out 7♠Q♣3♣2♥6♦ to give Boyd a better low to go with his aces as Goindoo hit the rail ahead of the unofficial final table draw.

Nível 21

No-Limit Hold'em

Chad Eveslage raised to 50,000 from under the gun and Dustin Dirksen three-bet to 200,000 on the button. The call by Eveslage followed and they headed to the Q♣8♠5♠ flop on which Dirksen applied maximum pressure with a shove. Eveslage called and Dirksen instantly asked "do you have queens?"

Chad Eveslage: K♣K♥
Dustin Dirksen: A♠K♠

Dirksen had one overcard to go with his nut flush draw but failed to get there on the 5♥ turn and Q♦ river. Eveslage doubled for 1,005,000 and jumped into the lead.

No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw

Chad Eveslage made it 55,000 to go on the button and Dutch Boyd three-bet to 200,000 in the small blind. Mike Gorodinsky then four-bet jammed for more than 500,000 and Eveslage folded while Boyd called very quickly.

Boyd patted and the same applied for Gorodinsky as well.

Boyd rolled over the 9x7x6x3x2x and Gorodinsky nodded, exposing his slightly inferior 9x8x7x3x2x before heading to the payout desk. The runner-up of the previous year in this event finishes in 7th place for $42,965.

Nível 21

Pot-Limit Omaha 8 or Better

Marco Johnson opened to 70,000 in the cutoff before Zack Freeman potted on the button. Johnson four-bet all in and Freeman called with a bigger stack.

Marco Johnson: A♠A♥Q♦Q♣
Zack Freeman: A♣10♠3♠2♦

The flop landed J♣10♥2♣ to give Freeman the lead with two pair and the 7♠ turn gave him a nut low draw to go with it. Unfortunately for him, the K♥ peeled off on the river to give Johnson Broadway to scoop the pot and double up.

"I knew any paint was good," Johnson said after seeing the river card.

"This one's gonna hurt," he said.

"I've got a nine," said Eveslage as he showed 9♠8♣7♦4♣3♥ to win the pot as Johnson mucked to be left with crumbs.

The next hand, Dustin Dirksen raised and Johnson three-bet jammed his remaining chips. Eveslage and Dirksen both called and drew two as Johnson drew one.

Dirksen and Eveslage both checked and drew two after the first draw and Johnson again drew one. Both players checked again after the second draw and Eveslage drew two as his opponents drew one.

Eveslage check-folded after a bet from Dirksen on the final draw who showed 7♦6♠4♣3♥2♠ for a seven-six low and a seven badugi to beat out Johnson's A♦9♣7♥3♠ as he hit an ace on the final draw.

"Stupid badeucey hands," Johnson murmured as he was eliminated in sixth place.

Nível 22

Big O

Dutch Boyd won two small pots against Chad Eveslage and a big collision was then unfolding shortly after.

Zack Freeman raised to 50,000 on the button and Chad Eveslage three-bet the pot to 175,000 out of the small blind, earning calls from Dutch Boyd in the bib blind and initial raiser Freeman.

On the 9♦8♦3♠ flop, Eveslage bet the pot for 550,000 and Boyd called, which forced out Freeman. The jam by the chip leader followed on the 10♦ turn and Boyd called. However, they only flipped over the cards on the 7♠ river.

Dutch Boyd: A♣5♦3♦3♥2♠
Chad Eveslage: A♥9♥8♣6♦2♣

Both had the nut low but Boyd also held a flush to earn three quarters.
