Action was picked up after the players drew with 40,000 chips in the pot.
Matt Glantz in the small blind checked to Michael Rocco in the big blind, who bet out 65,000. Glantz debated his decision for about a minute before finding a call.
Rocco announced, "eight-five," before tabling 8x5x4x3x2x as Glantz tossed his cards into the muck, giving Rocco the pot.
Ryan Riess had put in his stack of roughly 125,000 chips and was looked up by Chad Eveslage. Evelsage had stood pat and Riess was drawing one.
Ryan Riess: 8x6x4x2x 
Chad Eveslage: 9x8x6x5x4x
"You win," Riess declared as his final card was tossed into the muck. He departed the area while Eveslage was off to a rocket start after registering late.
Daniel Negreanu opened from the hijack to 8,000, before Jermey Ausmus three-bet all in from the button. When action folded back to Negreanu, he called to put himself at risk.
Negreanu drew one card as Ausmus stood pat.
Daniel Negreanu: 7x5x3x2x
Jeremy Ausmus: Jx9x8x6x3x
Negreanu would have plenty of outs to out draw Ausmus needing to draw a four, six, eight, nine, ten or jack. However, when he flipped over 5x he paired his five, and was sent to the rebuy desk.

Nick Schulman raised to 7,000 as first to act, David "Bakes" Baker called in middle positon, and Paul Volpe three-bet to 30,000 in the cutoff. It folded back to Schulman, who called before Baker got out of the way.

Meanwhile, Daniel Negreanu and Phil Hellmuth were among the latest entries to the field.
