Brian Kim raised to 2,500,000 in the hijack and Jason James called in the big blind. On the K♦8♥2♠ flop, Kim continued for 1,300,000 and James check-folded.

On the next hand, Kristen Foxen made it 2,400,000 to go in the cutoff and took down the blinds and antes.

Joe Serock then opened for 2,400,000 on the button. James then shoved for 20,400,000 in the small blind and was swiftly awarded the pot as the other players folded.

On the next deal, Foxen raised to 2,4000,000 in early position and won the pot as she received no callers.

It was then Serock's turn to open for 2,400,000 again, and once again no flop was dealt as the blinds and antes were tossed to Serrock.
