Schleicher raised to 55,000 from the button and James St Hilaire responded with a pot-sized three-bet, bumping it to 185,000. Action returned to Schleicher who had a standard request about Hilaire's total stack size. "I started the hand with 311,000," replied St Hilaire.
Schleicher moved all in and St Hilaire called.
St Hilaire:
Schleicher:

Mark Reilly raised to 50,000 from the first position and Brad Ruben potted from one seat over. The blinds went out of the way but Reilly announced he was all in and Ruben called off for his remaining bits.
Reilly:
Ruben:
Reilly turned up double-suited aces, earning a "wow" from Ruben.
The flop brought a pair of queens for Ruben, who looked for another connection to escape his elimination. The turn , however, was a hammer, already locking the pot for Reilly. "Nice hand," offered Ruben, who knew he was going to payouts.
The river was meaningless as Ruben walked away in ninth place, earning $26,648.
Rudolph Sawa was moved to Table 1 due to balancing order, and he took Ruben's former spot, left to Mark Reilly. While Reilly is the tournament leader, Sawa is also playing a big stack so things may get spicy in the upcoming hands.
