The rapid-fire all-in showdowns kept on coming with the next short stack getting the chips in preflop. That happened to be Antonio Lievano, who pushed for the last 1,175,000 and was looked up by Matthew Su.
Antonio Lievano:
Matthew Su:
Both kept shouting to their rails which cards they wanted to see. Lievano settled for a split pot already with his demands but was on thin ice after the turn. "Give me the nuts," Su responded while Lievano was yelling for a ten. Neither request was granted as the
river ended Lievano's run in 51st place.

Turner Takes One From Bittar
Action folded around to Kamal Bittar in the small blind and he raised to 600,000. George Turner made the call out of the big blind to send the players heads-up to the flop.
Bittar led out for 575,000 after the flop and Turner called.
Both players checked through the turn to see the
river where Bittar again checked. Turner fired off 900,000 which was enough to get his opponent off his hand and keep Turner chipping up.
