Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Daniel Young opened to 2,100 in middle position and was called by Rhodora Luck in the cutoff and Ryan Riess in the small blind. The flop fell J♠10♥2♥ and Young continued with a bet of 2,700 which only Luck called.

The turn was the 5♥ and Young fired out another bet of 3,100. Luck still called and the 5♣ paired the board on the river. Young checked this time and Luck slid in a bet of 5,000. Young looked him up and Luck turned over A♥6♥ for a flush to rake in the pot.

"Bang, right away on the turn," Young pointed out Luck's flush.

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

The flop showed 2♦2♠J♠ in a heads-up raised pot when Austin Marks checked from the blinds to Farah Galfond who bet 5,000. Marks took a minute and called.

The same action happened on the 2♣ turns, this time for 11,000.

The 6♥ completed the board and after a last check from Marks, Galfond announced all in for her last 42,500. After some thinking, Marks eventually called with J♣8♥ but the pot was sent to Galfond who held K♣K♥ for a better full house.

Austin Marks	160,000 -32,800	-32,800

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Following an under the gun raise by Andrea Buonocore and a call by Patrick Loughman from two seats over, Sergi Reixach stuck around from the big blind. On the 8♠7♠5♥ flop, Reixach checked and subsequently check-raised from 5,000 to 22,500 when Buonocore continued and Loughman called.

The check-raise was only called by Buonocore, who then also called Reixach's bet of 14,000 on the A♥ turn. The 4♦ river saw Reixach bet 60,000 and that sent his opponent into the tank.

"It is either a bad river for me or for you," Buonocore said and tank-folded. Reixach checked both of his cards and flashed the 6♦ for a straight before collecting the pot.

Patrick Loughman	230,000 -8,000	-8,000

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Nick Marchington raised to 2,500 from middle position before Guilebaldo Flores, in the small blind, three-bet to 6,500. Marchington called and the flop came 8♣Q♦J♦.

Flores now checked and Marchington bet 3,800. Flores called and both players checked the 10♣ turn.

Flores led out for 4,000 on the A♣ river before Marchington slid forward a tower of chips, putting Flores all in for his last 20,000. Flores threw his cards into the muck in frustration as the 2019 Main Event finalist took the pot.

The board J♣A♦4♦4♠2♦ was already completed and Daniel Rezaei bet 6,500. Stanislav Urodlivchenko tanked for a minute and made the call.

Rezaei tabled K♣Q♣ but Urodlivchenko showed the winning hand with K♥J♥ and took down the pot.

Yuya Kita opened to 2,200 from middle position and Mike Matusow three-bet to 6,700. Kita put in a four-bet to 22,000 putting Matusow into the tank.

After about a minute Matusow folded the K♠A♣ face up, sending the pot in Kita's direction. Kita showed he had the A♠K♦ for the same hand in what likely would have been a chop had the two gone all in as he collected the pot.

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

In three-way action to the J♦10♠7♥2♠ turn, Matthew Schiavo bet 8,200 out of the blinds and Joseph Severino called. Muskan Sethi was also involved in the hand as well and waved her hands to check the stack of Severino before she folded.

The 3♣ river was checked and Schiavo tabled his 4♥4♠ for just a pair of fours. That was, however, good enough to win the pot as Severino mucked.

Meanwhile, David Peters' seat was found empty with his seat card on the felt, marking his elimination.
