Ryan Dykhouse raised to 160,000 from the button and Adam Friedman moved all in for just over 1,000,000 from the big blind. Dykhouse quickly called and tabled {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}. Friedman needed to find help for his {k-Hearts}{5-Hearts}, but couldn't find it as the board ran out {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{5-Spades} and Friedman is gone.

Mark Johnson opened to 165,000 from the small blind and Adam Friedman made the call. The flop was {6-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{5-Clubs} and both players checked. The {k-Diamonds} fell on the turn and Johnson bet 175,000. The river was the {8-Diamonds} and Johnson checked. Friedman bet 255,000 and Johnson thought for a while, before finally sliding out chips for the call.

Jeremy Ehrke moved all in and Jeremy Dykhouse called from the big blind. Ehrke was in bad shape as his {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} trailed the {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs} of Dykhouse.

The {6-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{6-Spades}{a-Hearts}{5-Hearts} run-out brought no help for Ehrke and he hit the rail in fourth place.
