Hand #181: Scott Blumstein raised to 1,700,000 in middle position, and it folded around to Ben Lamb in the big blind. He thought it over for a bit before folding, and Blumstein took the pot.

Hand #182: Jack Sinclair raised to 1,600,000 in the hijack. It folded to Lamb in the small blind, and he moved all in for 14,900,000. Sinclair didn't take long to fold.

Hand #183: John Hesp raised to 2,000,000 from under the gun, and the rest of the table got out of the way, giving Hesp the pot.

Hand #184: Michael Ruane moved all in for 17,300,000 from middle position, and Bryan Piccioli tanked on the button for a couple of minutes before he called for just a little less than Ruane. The blinds folded, and the race was on.

Piccioli: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Ruane: {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}

The flop came down {J-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}. Ruane picked up backdoor flush and straight outs, but the {6-Clubs} provided no extra help. Ruane needed an ace or a king to win the pot and bring the field to the final nine, but the river was the {7-Hearts}.

Piccioli doubled up to 34,000,000, while Ruane was knocked down to just over two big blinds with 2,000,000.

Hand #185: Benjamin Pollak raised to 2,500,000 from early position and could not get any action as he picked up the blinds and antes.
