The table of Patrick Serda in Pavilion broke and he moved over to the Amazon Gold section. He needed quite some time to unpack all the chips from his bag and replied "I think it's around 550" when one of his new table mates asked.
There was a raise to 2,600 from the hijack and the button flat-called. Chris Grigorian shipped all in for 29,000 in the small blind and the hijack called. The button stepped aside and the remaining two hands were tabled.
Chris Grigorian: 
Opponent: 
Grigorian was in great shape to double up with the larger pocket pair between the two players. The board ran out clean for "The Armenian Express" and he quietly scooped a double up.
The player under the gun raised to 2,500 and Rory Brown called from the small blind.
They checked to the turn of a 
board where Brown bet 4,000. His opponent called.
The river was the 
, Brown bet 12,000 and his opponent called.
Brown tabled 
for a pair of kings, his opponent mucked and Brown collected the pot.
Samuel Phillips checked out of the big blind with 
on the felt. Jeffrey Schwimmer announced he was all in, covering Phillips' 26,300. That was nearly double the size of the pot, which had about 14,000 in it. Phillips thought about a minute and folded.
A player opened from under the gun, then called a three-bet from Mark Bloomberg to 8,000 next to act.
The under the gun player checked a 
flop to Bloomberg, who quickly flicked 10,000 into the pot. His opponent folded just as quickly folded.
Lars Bonding raised from early position and was called by Ramin Piro in the big blind, who check-called a bet of 3,200 on the 
flop. Piro led the turn for 4,400 and Bonding raised to 17,100, which Piro called.
On the 
river, Piro checked and faced a bet of 100,000 by Bonding, which had his stack covered. After plenty of consideration, Piro mucked 
for two pair face up and Bonding let him pick one card, which happened to be the 
.
Kent Walter raised to 2,700 from early position, and Niklas Astedt called from middle position. The action folded to the player in the small blind, and he raised to 5,400.
Both Walter and Astedt called to see a 
flop and the action checked to Astedt. The Swede bet 8,000 and saw the player in the small blind frustratingly fold after 30 seconds in the tank, followed by Walter, who also let his hand go.
Johnnie Moreno checked in the small blind on 
and Max Steinberg checked it back from under the gun. Moreno checked the 
river and Steinberg bet 15,000 into about 19,000.
"I have a really good hand," Moreno said with a sigh. "I feel like you have like, queens, or something though."
Moreno mucked 
face up after about 30 seconds. Steinberg mucked face down but then said he had jacks and thought he might be value owning himself after Moreno spoke up about having a really good hand.
