Randall Morris went all in from under the gun, for around 300,000. He received one call, from Jason Anderson in late position, putting Morris at risk.
Randall Morris: A♣5♥
Jason Anderson: A♦Q♦
The first three community cards came K♥5♣9♥, catapulting Morris into the lead. But the board ran out Q♣6♠ to give Anderson the win — and send Morris to the rail.
After a limp from under the gun, Joseph D'Agostino bet 240,000 from middle position and Clinton Hartshorn moved all in for 40,000. Tom Eidenschink called from the small blind.
Armando Flores in the big blind announced all in to isolate and covered the remaining active players. Under the gun, D'Agostino and Eidenschink all folded. Flores was awarded the 600,000 side pot and went to the races with Hartshorn for 260,000.
Clinton Hartshorn: K♥K♠
Armando Flores: J♦J♣
Hartshorn woke up with a monster with his one big blind shove. Their kings held after the Q♠5♠3♥9♦6♣ runout to get the near septuple up.
The very next hand Hartshorn was all-in again and ran his KxJx into AxKx, but spiked a jack in the window and locked up a double up. Hartshorn is now a double-up away from the average stack.
The board read Q♦8♦5♣ with three players remaining in the pot. The player in the big blind checked the action to Leonard Clementi in the cutoff, who bet out for 200,000. Clinton Hartshorn on the button called and the player in the big blind folded.
The 2♣ fell on the turn and Hartshorn called another stab from Clementi for 500,000.
On the 3♠, Clementi fired one last bet of 800,000 and Hartshorn relinquished his hand.
Action folded all the way to Richard Tatalovich in the small blind who went all in. William Freeman was in the big blind and had him covered. Freeman took a moment and then called.
Richard Tatalovich: Q♦4♦
William Freeman: 8♥8♣
The board ran out A♦6♥7♥A♥A♣ and Freeman won the hand with aces full.
The under-the-gun player raised to 130,000, Lonnie Hallett called on the button, as did Victor Ramdin in the small blind and the player in the big blind.
Four to a flop of 3♠3♦5♦. The action check through to the Q♥ on the turn. With the action sent over to Hallett, he bet out 325,000 and only Ramdin called.
The river fell the 4♠ and the hand checked to a showdown. Ramdin tabled A♠Q♠. His turned top pair was enough to lay claim to this pot.
With approximately 600,000 in the middle, Thong Tran checked the action from the big blind over to Tom Eidenschink on the button, who bet out for 450,000. Tran three-bet to 950,000 and Eidenschink folded.
Putting speculation to an end Tran announced "Yeah, I got it," as he showed A♦J♦, having flopped the nut flush.
