wasn't ahead of Tran's 
for very long, though, as the flop came nine-high. There wasn't anything else for Vedes to sweat on board, and his day has come to a close.

We've got two more levels to push through tonight, and we'll do it without the services of the green T25 chips. Those have been raced off and colored up, and we'll have to manage without them from here on out.
Vitaly Lunkin made it two bets from the button, and got called by the player in the big blind. The flop was 
, and the player in the big blind check-raised Lunkin's flop bet.
The turn was the

The river was the , and the big blind bet again, Lunkin raised, and the big blind made the call. Lunkin revealed pocket aces, that were indeed cracked by the

Lunkin is now on about 15,000.
David Plastik raised first-in from the small blind, and a female player made the quick call from the big.
Heads up, the flop came out 
, and Plastik's follow-up bet was called again. His opponent called bets again on the

The river was the and both players checked. Gomes showed the , which was bad news for the pocket fours of his opponent. Gomes is up to 30,000.

. The big blind fired out a bet, and Maya Geller called in position.
That action repeated on the 
turn and on the river with Geller calling big bets on both streets. The button showed up pocket queens, and Geller's was the winning hand, her pair of aces earning her a chip boost up to 23,000.
Shannon Shorr got himself all in on the turn of a board showing 
. JC Tran held 
, and he was more than happy to get the chips in after turning top pair, much to the chagrin of Shorr.
No help on the river meant the end of Shorr's day, and JC Tran now appears to be the big stack with 55,000 chips in front of him.
