Abil Khan is back with a big stack and a lot of that came when he eliminated Michael Newman. As told by the table, Newman flopped the nut six-high straight, the board paired a four on the turn, and the chips went in. Khan had pocket kings for two pair and the river four gave him a boat to send Newman out.

That hand propelled Khan well over two million and back among the leaders.

Abil Khan – 2,450,000 (123 bb)

Eric Walling was sitting in the small blind and saw Juan Diaz move all in from middle position and Tim Shane follow suit on the button. Walling had a pretty nice hand himself and ripped in from the small blind to get a fold from Cesar Fuentes in the big.

Walling:
Diaz:
Shane:

Walling had both players covered for a double knockout but Shane took the lead when he paired his king on the flop. The turn changed nothing but the dealer put the on the river to send both Diaz and Shane out of the tournament.

There was a ruckus shortly before tournament staff sent players on their 40-minute dinner break. After a series of raises, Luis Dominguez put his 400K stack in the middle and Steven Harmell called with a bit more to put him at risk.

Dominguez:
Harmell:

It was a race and Harmell took the lead on the flop. The turn made little difference but the shouting began when Dominguez spiked the two-out on the river to double up.

Luis Dominguez – 830,000 (55 bb)

Ryan Hogan was down to 630,000 from his previous chip leading stack and put them in the middle against Courtland Twyman with the board reading .

Twyman:
Hogan:

Hogan was ahead with the aces but had 14 outs to dodge on the river with Twyman looking for any club, six or jack. Hogan could barely look but his hand held after the river. They counted down the stack and Twyman was just under 600,000 to exit the tournament.
