Heads-up to the A♠9♣7♣6♠ turn, Tracey Nguyen bet 8,000 from an early position and the button was the only caller. They checked the 8♦ on the river and Nguyen declared a straight before revealing the 10♦6♦. That won the pot as her opponent mucked.
Action was picked up on the flop with the board showing 2♦5♥5♠.
Thomas DiGiacomo checked from middle position to his opponent on the button who bet out 30,000. DiGiacomo then raised all in for 80,500. After getting a count, his opponent made the call.
Thomas DiGiacomo: A♠A♥
Button: J♠J♥
DiGiacomo had his opponent in bad shape with his pocket aces, and after the board ran out 3♠ on the turn, and 9♠ on the river, DiGiacomo aces were still best to give him the double up.
David Wintersberger opened to 6,500 and earned three callers including Mikita Badziakouski in the cutoff. All four players checked down the 9♠5♠3♦6♥5♥ board and the small blind slammed down the 6♦6♣ on the table with plenty of frustration, as no other player behind him had made any move to steal the pot off him.
Wintersberger has become the biggest stack on his table and climbed to nearly six times the starting stack in the final level of the night.
Picking up the action partway through the hand, Lara Eisenberg in middle position was involved in a hand with Frank Bongiorno in late position, a player in the cutoff and the big blind.
With the board reading Q♣3♥10♠ action checked to Bongiorno, who bet 5,500. That got a fold from the cutoff and big blind but Eisenberg responded by raising to 15,000. After some thought, Bongiorno moved all in with Eisenberg snapping off with the covering stack.
Frank Bongiorno: A♥A♠
Lara Eisenberg: 3♣3♦
Eisenberg had flopped big to leave Bongiorno and his pocket rockets in dire straits. Nothing changed on either the 2♥ turn or K♣ river to bring Bongiorno's tournament to an end while handing a big pot to Eisenberg.
