David Benyamine shoved on the button over a Schuyler Thornton raise to 5,200 in the cutoff, and Thornton called for about 32,000.

Benyamine shook his head when he was called but had to be happy to be drawing to two live cards. The board ran out though, and Benyamine went unpaired and busto.
Jesse Martin just chopped another three-way pot to survive.
This time, he, Daniel Zack and Chris Klodnicki built a pot of about 50,000 before the first draw. Zack took two, Klodnicki one and Martin tanked a couple of minutes before patting. They got a bet in which put Martin all in after the draw. Draws went one, one, pat, and Zack checked. Klodnicki bet and Zack raised. Klodnicki called. Draws were one, one, pat again. Zack bet and Klodnicki called.
Zack showed for nut badugi but his last pull had been a useless . Martin held for an eight-low. Klodnicki had a for a seven-badugi but his last card was a , leaving him getting zero.
Felipe Ramos got the last of his money in on a badeucey pot but was drawing dead on the final pull for the full pot when Schuyler Thornton rolled over with a three-card badugi. Ramos had a jack-low but missed a badugi and busted.
John Racener and Ryan Hughes were playing a decent-sized pot when we showed up to their table on sixth street.

Racener check-called a bet and they took seventh street. Racener checked and Hughes bet. Racener popped in a raise that Hughes called.
"Queens full," Racener said, tabling .
Hughes mucked. Despite the loss, he's run up his starting stack considerably after running deep in the Heads-Up Championship and registering near the buzzer.
Matt Glantz completed and Schuyler Thornton raised. Glantz called and led out on fourth street with Thornton calling.
On fifth street, Glantz bet and Thornton raised. Glantz called, and then called on sixth once Thornton took the betting lead as each player's boards read as follows heading into seventh street.

Once Thornton bet the river, Glantz deliberated for roughly 30 seconds before folding.
"I binked the river" announced Thornton as he tabled his for a six-straight for the high and a wheel for the low.
