We found the now rather short-stacked Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier betting out 1,575 on the turn of a 
board. One of his opponents raised to 4,000, the other one folded, the action was back on ElkY who went all in for around 6,500 total, and his opponent called.
ElkY: 
for trips
Caller: 
for a straight
River: 
Everyone in the Amazon Room can take their sunglasses off now, as ElkY and his rhinestone-tastic outfit are gone.
Recent bracelet winner Chris Bell reached the turn of a 
board from the big blind, and led for 4,000. After a brief pause, the button trickled in a 5,000 orange chip to signify the call.

turn, and the 
river drew a leading bet from Lichtenberger's opponent. He made it 1,825 to call, and Lichtenberger obliged him by dropping the chips into the pot.
The unknown player showed 
for the set, and that was better than Lichtenberger's hand. We never saw it though; into the muck went his cards, and he's back to 30,000 and ready to restart his day from all over again.
Three players made it to the 
flop and it checked around to the gentleman who raised preflop, who bet 3,300. Johnny Lodden (small blind) called. The third player (under the gun) folded.
Both players checked the turn and they saw a river which they checked again. The original raiser turned over 
for what had been top pair on the flop - but Lodden's 
had turned into an even more top pair by the river, and he was up to 69,000.

With roughly 6,000 chips in the middle, the final board read

Schneider fired back a raise to 7,125. After a minute in the tank, the player folded and Schneider was pushed the pot to push his stack up to 52,000 in chips.
