Hands:
Shaun Deeb Crippled, Eliminated
After a player opened the action, Shaun Deeb three-bet from the small blind. Max Heinzelmann four-bet from the big blind, and the original raiser folded. Deeb five-bet, and Heinzelmann shoved for about 220,000 total. Deeb snap called with pocket aces and was up against A-6 off suit. The flop brought a six and the river brought another one, crippling Deeb to just 20,000 and propelling the European to about 440,000. Deeb was eliminated shortly thereafter.
Sorel Mizzi Takes out an Opponent
Sorel Mizzi opened a pot from the hi-jack and then one opponent moved all in for 30,000. Mizzi made the call and they flipped over their cards:
Mizzi: A K
Opponent: K Q
Board: A J 5 K 3
Mizzi took out his opponent and he increased his chip stack to 150,000.
Lee Watkinson Eliminated
Lee Watkinson was once up to 90,000, but then had his K-K lose to A-Q, and then he got the last of his chips into the middle after flopping a pair of aces, but lost to Q-Q when his opponent hit trips on the river.
Todd Brunson Doubles
Todd Brunson flopped a straight and flush draw in a three-way pot. He moved all in and was called by an opponent holding aces. Brunson hit his draw on the turn and doubled to 150,000.
Noah Boeken Eliminated
In a blind-versus-blind scenario, Noah Boeken got his stack in with A-9 against Q-2. Unfortunately for Boeken his opponent hit a pair of queens and sent him packing.

Galen Hall Eliminates a Player
Galen Hall held A-Q and called an 11-big-blind shove from a short stack. His opponent held a dominated ace and Hall held to bring his chip stack to about 200,000.
Jonathan Little Short
Jonathan Little ran his A-K into K-9 on K-9-X-X-X board. Fortunately Little was able to avoid going broke and sits with 45,000.
