"This is a big pot," Drew "BetOnDrew" Gonzalez said as he was faced with a bet of 8,600 from Richard Hasnip on a board of 5♠6♦Q♦Q♣5♥ and around 30,000 already in the middle.
"I'm going to need a little more. I'm almost there," Gonzalez said as several minutes went off the clock. He eventually removed his Yoda card protector, looked back at his cards, then slammed in a call.
Hasnip showed him 6♣6♥ for a full house and Gonzalez mucked, seeing nearly half his stack slid across the table.
Vincent Iannuzzi and Shyam Ravindran are both seated at this table in the record-setting Main Event, both having also played in 2006. "I think it's a cool story," Iannuzzi said.

In a pot with already 12,000 in the middle, the board on the turn read 9♠6♥10♣6♠ when Randy Lazarus bet 3,000 and Jace Reiken made the call to see the K♥ on the river.
This time Lazarus checked and Reiken checked back, at which point Lazarus showed A♦9♦ for sixes and nines, but it was no good when Reiken tabled J♦J♠ for a superior two-pair.

Action folded to the cutoff who raised to 500 only to see Jian Lu toss in a three-bet to 2,000. The cutoff called to bring out the 5♦6♥4♣ flop.
Action checked through and the dealer burned and turned the J♣.
The cutoff checked and Lu put out a bet of 1,500. The cutoff didn't waste much time before calling and seeing the A♣ fall on the river.
The cutoff checked once more and watched as Lu tossed out a single 5,000 chip. The bet was good enough to get a fold out of the cutoff and Lu collected the pot.
