flop, as well as the turn. When the 
appeared on the river, Quinn bet 300,00 and Ilich quickly folded.
Quinn let out a long sigh and shook his head as he turned over 
for flopped quads. Unfortunately for him, he didn't get paid off. "I was hoping you had a queen," he said to Ilich.

Bob Chow raised to 125,000 preflop only to have Michael Hallen move all in for around 1.2 million. Chow made the call and it was bad news for Hallen:
Showdown
Hallen:
Chow: 
The 
flop gave Hallen a gut-shot straight draw to a queen, making a jack obsolete as one would give Chow a straight. The 
turn changed nothing, while the 
river made some at the table think Hallen sucked out; however, as we said before, it happened to give Chow a straight and the win. Hallen was eliminated in 13th place and will take home $26,318 for his efforts.

Edward Pham may be the tightest player remaining in the field and that isn't lost on Eric Crain. After the 
needle a few minutes ago, Crain continues to apply pressure to Pham.
Pham opened for 125,000 and Crain raised to 350,000. Pham pulled his bet back and stuck out a cool million. Crain pulled his earphones out and moved all in. Pham took only a few seconds before tossing his cards in the muck.
With 350,000 in the pot and a board reading , Shawn Quinn checked from the big blind and Joe Hebda bet 155,000 from early position. Quinn made the call and then both players checked the 
turn. The brought a third check from Quinn, prompting Hebda to bet a modest 140,000.
Quinn made the call and looked as if he was going to muck when Hebda turned over 
, but then he seemed to realize something and turned over the superior 
.
"I just got nit rolled," Hebda said in frustration.
