With 378 players remaining according to the screens, tournament staff has confirmed that the last table downstairs has been moved to the main area and thus only one set of stairs is required for the bloggers to jump right into the action.
Denis Drobina was all in and at risk after five-bet shoving his stack of 25,000 chips with pocket kings. Jack Salter "didn't have much, only pocket jacks" and the queen-high flop "gave nothing." On the turn, Salter picked up a flush and straight draw before finding one of the remaining two jacks in the deck on the river.
Salter then went on to explain to the table that the was his favorite card, but he didn't get it this time.

Alexandre Sako opened before the flop and Artem Litvinov in the hijack made the call.
Sako would fire on the flop and Litvinov made the call. The same happened on the turn; Sarko bet (6,600) this time, Litvinov called.
The was where things got interesting. Sako bet another 11,000 and Litvinov tanked for a bit before raising to 29,000. Now it was Sako in the tank. The Brazilian thought for quite some time before eventually calling.
Litvinov showed for the nuts and Sako mucked.

With 6,000 in the pot and a flop of , Dermot Blain, who celebrated his 31st birthday yesterday, checked from the big blind and JC Alvarado bet 3,400 from middle position. Blain responded with a check-raise to 10,000, and then called off the 12,000 he had behind after Alvarado three-bet all in.
Blain:
Alvarado:
Alvarado was technically ahead with his ace-queen, but Blain was drawing to two live cards plus a flush draw. The turn made Blain's draw to a king irrelevant, but it didn't matter as it'd be the on the river that'd give him the flush and the win.
