Johnny Lodden has more than 2.0 million in chips after taking a modest pot off of Denis Pisarev. Lodden opened for 50,000 from late position pre-flop, with Pisarev calling from the button. Lodden checked an ace-high flop, 
, then called a bet of 65,000 from Pisarev.
Both players checked the 
turn. At the 
river, Lodden led into Pisarev for 205,000. Pisarev snap-called, but couldn't beat 
that Lodden tabled for two pair, aces and sevens. Pisarev mucked and fell to about 365,000 in chips.
Jameson Singer moved all in for his last 150,000 preflop. Juha Helppi thought for a little while before folding but Derek Gibb made the call.
Singer: 
Gibb: 
The board smacked Gibb pretty hard when it ran out 
to make him quad aces and send Singer to the rail.
In only Helppi had played, then we might've had one helluva hand to report. What did Helppi fold? Pocket fours!
In a battle of the blinds, Dragan Galic found 
and Scott Clements 
, and all of Galic's ~490,000 chips found their way into the middle of the table. He was at risk as the cards were turned up, and the ESPN cameras scurried into position for the board.
There was a king right away for Galic, but it was of not a good flop overall. Clements found his set as it came 
, and he delivered a piercing wound to Dragan. Galic stumbled back to his feet on the turn, picking up four outs for his survival. He took his last breath as the 
fell on fifth street, however, and Galic has fallen.
Clements is up to 1.85 million after slaying the Dragan.

We caught up with this one after the chips went in the middle, but the table had folded around to our new chip leader Robert Pisano in the small blind and a short-stacked Robert Mizrachi in the big blind. However the pair handled the situation, the result was Mizrachi was all in before the flop for his last 239,000 with and hoping to survive versus Pisano's

The flop came made to order for Mizrachi -- 
-- giving him the straight right off. The turn was the and river the , and Mizrachi doubled to close to 500,000. Pisano still has 4.05 million.
