Stephen Song (big blind) and Christopher Dandrea (button) put in about 50,000 each to see a flop of Qd5c3c.

Song bets 30,000, Dandrea raises to 75,000, and Song thinks for a few moments before three-betting all in for about 250,000. Dandrea has about 110,000 left in his stack, and he goes into the tank for a long time.

Eventually, somebody calls for a clock, and a floorperson gives Dandrea 30 seconds to act on his hand. With about 10 seconds remaining, Dandrea calls with Qc10s for a pair of queens.

But Song turns over 5d3h for bottom two pair, fives and threes, and Dandrea needs to improve to stay alive.

The turn card was the 3s, the river card is the 7c, and Song turns a full house, threes full of fives, to eliminate Dandrea in 19th place.

Stephen Song  –  520,000  (104 bb)
Christopher Dandrea  –  Eliminated

David Prociak raised under the gun, Gary Lucci reraised from the big blind to 40,000, and Prociak moved all in for 145,500.

Lucci thought for a bit. before he called with AdKc, and Prociak turned over QhQc. Prociak needed his hand to hold to stay alive.

The board came Qs9d8sAc2h, and Prociak flopped a set of queens to win the pot and double up in chips.

David Prociak  –  298,500  (60 bb)
Gary Lucci  –  253,000  (51 bb)

With 18 players remaining from a field of 104, the average chip stack is about 230,000 (46 big blinds), and the final 16 players will finish in the money, guaranteed at least $5,481 each.
