Marco Johnson bet fifth street to get called by Brian Rast and the same action repeated on sixth street when Johnson paired his open ace. They then checked seventh and Johnson tabled the 8♦7♣2♥ for a pair of aces and an eight-low.

No Limit 2-7 Single Draw

When all players rushed back to their seats just in time after the break, Matthew Schreiber asked Saya Ono if she had chips.

"I have 30,000. I lost 200,000 in a PLO pot against the guy to my right where I should have folded. Don't know who it is," Ono replied.

When the action resumed, Ono jammed for said 30,000 and was looked up by Dzmitry Urbanovich, the aforementioned player. Ono patted while Urbanovich took one and she revealed her KxQxJx9x4x with the words "I was bluffing".

Urbanovich was drawing live with the 8x5x3x2x and caught the Jx to knock out Ono.

The field was balanced shortly after since there were two open seats and Phil Hellmuth entered.

No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw

Phil Ivey raised to 12,000 and Mike Gorodinsky on the button three-bet to 35,000. Felipe Ramos called in the small blind and Lyle Berman then jammed for 239,000 in the big blind. Ivey and Gorodinsky folded while Ramos was pained by the decision.

"Can you feel the pain?" he asked the dealer who shook his head.

"I want to know what you would do with this hand," Ramos then asked after he had folded and tossed the cards towards Phil Ivey.

"I don't want to see it," Ivey replied and tossed them back towards the middle of the table from where Ramos grabbed them and exposed his 10x7x6x3x2x.

"Call for sure," Gorodinsky replied while Berman then sweated his cards with Matthew Schreiber and Johannes Becker. He had mentioned during the hand not to remember what he had and exposed the 8x5x4x3x first. Very slowly, he peeled the final card which was an ace before collecting the pot.

Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

Picking action up on the first draw in a raised pot, Michael Noori drew two under the gun, Viktor Blom drew one in the cutoff and Talal Shakerchi took two on the button.

After Noori checked, Blom bet and got called in both spots. Noori and Shakerchi still needed a card while Blom stood pat.

Following another check by Noori, Blom bet again, and still couldn't shed either opponent.

Blom remained pat after a one draw by Noori, and Shakerchi took one after him as well.

After a final check by Noori, Blom bet again, getting a fold from Shakerchi, but a call from Noori.

Blom fanned 8x7x5x4x3x and Noori mucked his hand to send the pot to Blom.

Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

Joining the action prior the second draw, Phil Hellmuth bet out of the small blind and Dan Smith raised from the big blind for Dzmitry Urbanovich to call in the cutoff as Hellmuth also stuck around. They each discarded one and it checked to Urbanovich, who bet. Hellmuth check-raised and Smith tank-folded while Urbanovich called.

Hellmuth patted to Urbanovich, who took one, and Hellmuth then check-called a bet.

As Urbanovich rolled over his 7x6x5x4x2x, Hellmuth tossed his cards in disgust towards the middle of the table and started rambling.

"This fuckin game has cost me three Players Championships," ... before becoming more uplift and adding a "let's go ... this fuckin game" shortly after.

While the hand played out, Ben Yu sat down in the three seat and Matt Vengrin walked by towards the exit as he had been eliminated.
