Ravi Raghavan got the last of his chips in before the flop with AhAd. His lone opponent was Tyler Patterson who held KhTh. The dealer laid a 6s5c3h9d5s board and Patterson stood from the table as he was bested. Patterson thought he had been eliminated, but the dealer broke down his stack revealing he still had a few chips left.

The shortstacked Patterson busted a few hands later.

Shawn Cunix got all in from the big blind for about 60,000 against Yevgeniy Timoshenko in the cutoff.

It was a flip for Cunix’s tournament life with his KcJh against Timoshenko’s 9c9h.

The flop was QsTc3s and Cunix flopped overcards and an open-ended straight draw to give him plenty of outs. The turn was the Ts and Cunix added counterfeit outs to his hand.

The river was the 6h and it bricked off for Cunix to send him to the rail and give the pot to Timoshenko.

Yevgeniy Timoshenko – 370,000 (74 bb)
Shawn Cunix – Eliminated

In a four-way, raised pot, Jonathan Roy lead for 21,000 from the small blind on a board of Jh7d5h. Two early-position players folded and it was on John Hennigan on the button. He called and was heads up with Roy to the turn.

The dealer revealed the 9c. Roy checked. Hennigan bet 52,000.

Fifth street was the Ah. Roy checked again. Hennigan bet 67,000 and Roy immediately threw a time chip into the pot. It nearly expired, then he plopped another chip in.

In the end, he found a fold and Hennigan took the pot.

John Hennigan – 445,000 (111 bb)
