Stephen Chidwick was all in under the gun for about 45,000 with 6s6d, and he needed it to hold to stay alive against the Ac8c of Jake Schindler in the cutoff.

The board came Jd6c4c10sAd, and Chidwick flopped a set of sixes to win the pot and double up back to a starting stack of 100K, leaving Schindler with just eight big blinds.

Stephen Chidwick  –  100,000  (25 bb)
Jake Schindler  –  32,000  (8 bb)

Unfortunately for Chidwick, the momentum didn’t last long, and he was eliminated a few minutes later in 15th place.

At Table 2, somebody raised, Elio Fox reraised from the hijack to 26,000, and Erik Seidel reraised from the cutoff to 67,000. The original raiser folded, and Fox thought for a while before he moved all in for 117,000.

Seidel called with a stack of 154K and turned over JdJc. Fox showed AdQs, and needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came As9c7c6s6c, and Fox paired his ace on the flop to win the pot and double up in chips.

Elio Fox  –  250,000  (63 bb)
Erik Seidel  –  37,000  (9 bb)

The next hand, Seidel moved all in from UTG+1 for 37,000, and Sean Winter thought for a moment before he called from the big blind, saying, “I think I have you dominated.”

Winter showed Qd10d, and Seidel turned over Qs9s. Winter had him dominated, and Seidel said, “You’re too good.”

The flop came AsKh10s, giving Seidel a spade flush draw, and Winter said, “No, you’re too good.”

The turn card paired the board with the 10c, giving Winter trip tens, and the river card was the 7h. Winter won the pot with his trip tens to eliminate Seidel in 14th place.

Sean Winter  –  130,000  (33 bb)
