It took only two rounds of hand-for-hand action to put the field in the money with 80 remaining. Play was paused with all-ins called on two different tables.

One cooler and one race.

The first hand run was the cooler when Jeff Rodriguez saw his bubble-time KdKc ran smack into Jason Payne’s AcAs. The board was drama-free 8c7h5c9dJd to knock out one.

The second hand was a race between Kimberly Vaccaro’s AsKc and James Ladeira’s TdTh. Vaccaro saw the Ad on the flop and never looked back to send the second players out.

Since they were eliminated on the same hand, Ladeira and Rodriguez chopped up 81st money for the $519 rebate.
