Chase Steely raised the pot to 240,000 first to act and Jim Collopy repotted. It folded back to Steely, who moved all in and Collopy called instantly.
Chase Steely: A♠A♦7♥3♥
Jim Collopy: K♠K♦2♥2♠
"The deuce is gonna hit," Gabriel Andrade predicted and was spot on with the 10♣10♠2♦ flop. Steely needed an ace or ten to survive but neither came on the 7♠ turn and 9♥ river.
The action folded to Chase Steely in the small blind and he raised the pot to 240,000, Santhosh Suvarna called in the big blind.
The duo headed to the Q♣6♦6♥ flop on which Chase continued for 200,000. Suvarna eyeballed the stack of his table neighbour and raised the pot, Steely folded and exposed the 5♥.
Dan Smith was all in for just 180,000 and Jim Collopy reraised the pot in the small blind to isolate.
Dan Smith: A♣Q♥7♦4♦
Jim Collopy: 8♠8♣5♠4♠
The chip leader flopped top set on 8♥7♠3♦ and the 10♣ turn left Smith drawing dead, Collopy then further improved to a full house on the 7♣ river.
Smith was joined on the rail by Jordan Spurlin, who succumbed to a short stack as well as the field was brought down to the last 26 contenders.
Tim Van Loo had survived the money bubble with a micro stack and then got it in with the K♣10♦8♥7♦.
Christopher Frank looked him up with the A♦J♠10♥3♦ and the Q♥J♦8♦4♠4♣ runout sent van Loo to the payout desk.
