Blumenthal led out for 27,000, Schwartz called and the {5-Clubs} turned. Both players checked to the {K-Diamonds}, which they also checked. Blumenthal show {9-}{9-}{7-}{2-} for nines and five, which was good enough to win the pot.

Hand #70: Noah Schwartz raised to 60,000 on the button and took down the blinds.

Hand #72: Josh Pollock raised to 40,000 under the gun, Shawn Silber called from the cutoff and Eric Shanks called from the big blind. The {5-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop saw all three players check and the dealer put out the {Q-Clubs} on the turn. Shanks led out for 65,000, Pollock folded and Silber made the call.

Hand #65: Eric Shanks reraised the pot after Shawn Silber opened for a raise. Silber reraised all in, and Shanks called.

Shanks: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}
Silber: {3-Spades}{j-Hearts}{7-Spades}{4-Hearts}

The board came {a-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}, and Silber never had a real hope of catching up to Shanks' kings, so he was forced to double his opponent up.

Hand #66: Eddie Blumenthal raised to 40,000, finding no callers.

Hand #67: Noah Schwartz raised to 40,000, and David Greene reraised to 170,000. Josh Pollock repotted from the small blind, and Schwartz folded. Greene called off his remaining chips.

Greene: {j-Spades}{10-Spades}{9-Hearts}{7-Spades}

Pollock improved to a full house on the {a-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{8-Spades}{8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} board, eliminating Greene.
