Heads-up on a board of A♥Q♠8♠Q♥, Erik Perry bet from the big blind and Richard Brushett called the button.
The river came the A♦ and Perry bet again. Brushett called again as Perry opened up A♣8♣2♦6♦ for a full house.
"This guy is hitting everything," Brushett said in frustration as he mucked A♠9♠.
"I got lucky," Perry admitted.
Action folded to Poker Hall of Fame member Linda Johnson in late position who came in for a raise. Only Lawrence Berg in the cutoff came along and the two saw a flop of 9♣10♠5♦.
Johnson checked to Berg who quickly tossed in a bet that was called by Johnson, prompting the dealer to burn and turn the 8♠.
Johnson checked again to Berg who opted on another bet but this time, Johnson came back with a check-raise. Berg, acting quickly and decisively throughout the hand, tossed in the call to see the 10♣ river card.
Johnson eyed Berg's stack before she grabbed chips and tossed out a bet that would commit Berg's final chips.
Berg quickly called and watched as Johnson rolled over the A♥Q♣J♣9♥, good for the nut straight, prompting Berg to toss his cards toward the muck and exit the tournament area.
Shortly after his encounter with Chris Vitch, James Obst was involved in another big pot as two players were all in by the turn.
The board was showing 6♣7♠10♦7♥ as Joao Simao and a player on the button got their chips in the middle, with Obst having both of them well covered.
Simao had J♥A♣4♣2♦, the button 3♥9♦J♦A♦, and Obst A♠10♠8♦2♠. The river came the 9♠ and Obst made a straight to win the entire pot, knocking out the Brazilian bracelet winner and the button.
Chris Vitch bet a flop of 5♥A♦Q♠ as James Obst called from the cutoff, as did a player under the gun.
The turn came the 9♥ and Vitch bet again. Both opponents called to the 6♠ river, where action checked to Obst.
Obst put out a bet and the under-the-gun player quickly called. Vitch took his name before also calling.
Obst turned over 3♥2♠J♥J♠ for the nut low, while Vitch had A♥A♠ for top set to take the high.
"That's what I was afraid of," the defeated opponent said as he mucked.
Ryan Leng is also seated at this table.
Kyle Cartwright raised under the gun and got a call from John Lovejoy in the big blind, leading to a flop of 7♥Q♠J♣.
Flop action saw Lovejoy check-call a bet from Cartwright before arriving together to a 5♦ turn card. Once again, Lovejoy checked to Cartwright who tossed out another bet that Lovejoy called and both players watched as the 5♣ fell on the river.
Cartwright bet again when checked to and again, Lovejoy tossed in the call to see Cartwright turn over the A♦A♥J♥5♥.
Lovejoy quickly tossed his cards into the muck and Cartwright took down the pot.

Connor Drinan, who won an all in with a straight flush earlier, was just involved in another all-in pot against Dominik Baud but wouldn't be as fortunate this time.
With the board showing 3♠10♦4♥9♥, Drinan got his last chips in the middle as Baud called on the button.
Drinan had A♦4♦Q♦7♣ while Baud showed K♥K♠2♠5♥. The river came the 9♦ and Baud's kings stayed in front as Drinan, the 2021 champion of this event, was sent to the rail.
Action folded around to Bryan Micon in the small blind who put in a raise. Nicolas Milgrom called from the big blind.
The flop came 2♣9♠2♥ and Micon continued with a bet. Milgrom called to see the 3♣ turn where Micon checked.
Milgrom now put out a bet and Micon called. The river came the J♠ and both players checked.
Milgrom turned over A♣9♣7♦6♦ for two pair. "Wow, you could've made some money," Micon said as he surrendered his cards.
On a board reading K♣A♠5♦9♥ with Matthew Woodward and Andrew Brown both all in and two players still players still active, action got checked through to a river card of the J♠.
The player first to act check-folded to a bet from the other active player and the remaining player along with Woodward and Brown all players headed to showdown.
Woodward quickly tabled the A♥Q♠10♥10♣ for the nuts on a board with no qualifying low and with that, both of his remaining opponents quickly fold with Woodward securing a quadruple up and sending Brown to the rail.
