Dylan Wilkerson opened to 1,800 from under the gun and Dennis Huntly three-bet the cutoff to 6,100. Wilkerson went into the tank for close to two minutes before moving all in for 25,800 and Huntly beat him into the pot.

Even though Timo Pfutzenreuter just had to give up a hand against Vincent Chu after calling the 2,000 bet of Chua on a and then folding to thr second barrel on the turn, he is up for the day. Dylan Hortin is running even better, early in level seven he was all in for his last 12,000 chips and now has more than 10 times of that.

Oliver Speidel, who you may recall as the 2012 Aussie Millions champ, raised from late position only to have Connor Drinan, the man who lost aces to aces this past summer in the $1,000,000 Big One for One Drop, three-bet all in for 5,300. Speidel called and the cards were turned up.

Drinan got it in good, and he'd survive the flip as the board ran out .
Unfortunately for Drinan, that double did him little good. A short time later he got his stack all in preflop holding the and was ahead of the of his opponent; however, the board ran out and trips sent Drinan out the door.
Patty Lai opened the action with a raise from under the gun and then called the three-bet shove of a short stack in middle position for 19,000 in chips. Lai was well ahead with against pocket jacks and the board left her opponent drawing dead after the turn already.

Gorr was crippled after running into , and then a short time later he got his last 11,000 all in preflop holding . Pocket tens reared their ugly head again, but this time Gorr was up against them.
