Michael Moncek had nearly doubled after his late Day 2 entry but by the time he was all-in, he only had 8,000 chips left. "I am not going to fold," Daniel Zack grinned and they exposed the cards.
Michael Moncek: A♠10♥10♦2♥
Daniel Zack: K♣9♦5♠3♥
The board ran out J♦5♣3♦A♦5♦ and Zack made fives full of treys, Moncek had no qualifying low.
Eddie Blumenthal was all-in against Gary Bolden on a board of 10♥6♥7♦7♠9♦.
Blumenthal: 7♥6♠4♥3♠
Bolden: A♥10♠8♦3♥
Blumenthal tabled a full house, sevens full of sixes, which was good for the entire pot, as there was no low hand possible on the board, leaving Bolden short.
The final board read 2♦2♥J♠5♠8♣ in an all-in hand between Motoyoshi Okamura, Paul Zappulla, and Daniel Zhu, where Okamura was the player at risk.
Okamura: A♥7♥6♦4♠
Zappulla: A♦Q♦6♠2♣
Zhu: A♠10♠10♦5♣
Zappulla would win the high with trip deuces and Okamura would win the low for half the pot with an eighty-five, extending his tournament life.
A short-stacked Renan Bruschi was all-in with the J♠J♣7♣6♠ and he got looked up by Pascal Leyo with the A♣J♦4♦4♣.
The board ran out K♦6♣5♣K♥4♠ and Leyo made fours full of kings to eliminate. Bruschi, who had no qualifying low.
William McMahan had been the initial raiser from the button and by the time the board showed K♥9♥5♣3♣6♥, only big stack Zachary Freeman in the small blind was still in the mix. He bet and McMahan called but then mucked when he was shown the J♥8♠7♦7♥ for a flush and eight low by his table neighbour.

Four ways to the K♥8♦3♠ flop, Chad Eveslage and Ren Lin checked out of the blinds. Sam Farha bet from under the gun and Daniel Chip called on the button while the blinds folded. Farha bet the 7♦ turn to earn a call and they checked the 9♣ on the river.
Farha tabled the A♣10♥9♦4♣ to earn the low pot, as Chio's A♠J♥8♣3♣ had two pair for the high pot.
During the hand, Eveslage and Lin shook hands on an even money last longer bet for reaching the money.
Ben Yu was then all-in for 8,000 preflop and Lin bet the Q♣J♥6♥ flop to force out Farha.
Ben Yu: A♦Q♥K♠9♠
Ren Lin: A♠K♦J♠6♠
Lin was ahead with two pair but the 9♣ turn and Q♦ river counterfeited them.
Cards were on their back in a hand between Chris Stephan and Jason Daly on a final board of 6♣5♦10♠K♣2♣.
Stephan showed A♠10♦8♠3♣ to win the low and Daly turned over A♦K♠10♣4♦ to win the high with two pair.
Phil Hellmuth was all-in against Jason Daly on a final board of 10♣A♦2♣7♥9♠.
Phil Hellmuth: 5♦4♥3♠2♥
Jason Daly: A♣Q♣10♥5♠
Hellmuth would win the low to avoid elimination with a seventy-four, and Daly would win the high with two pair, aces and tens.
