Michael Rocco opened to 40,000, Phil Hellmuth three-bet to 130,000, and then Keith Lehr moved all in for around 650,000. Rocco went into the tank for a few moments before he announced he was all in for more, which resulted in a hasty fold from Hellmuth.
Keith Lehr: J♠J♦
Michael Rocco: A♠A♥
The board of 3♣Q♠3♥4♥A♣ only improved Rocco to aces full to rocket him into the chip lead while Lehr made his way to the exit.

While the tournament director was asking dealers to stop dealing as the bubble has approaching, a three-way all-in and call situation occurred at Table 112.
Carl Norris shoved for 56,000 from under the gun, Juha Helppi was in the cutoff and at risk as well for 290,000 and Steve Buell was in the big blind and had them covered.
Carl Norris: K♠10♠
Juha Helppi: K♣Q♥
Steve Buell: A♣A♦
Norris found a bit of hope with the 7♠J♣J♠ flop which gave him a flush draw. But the 3♣A♥ runout didn't change anything and he was eliminated.
Helppi was slightly covered by Buell, so he was eliminated well and the bubble burst on this hand.
