It took a while for players to mix it up after the three-table redraw, deep stacks and getting a feel for their new tablemates. The stalemate broke when short stacked Chad Miker took a shot with QdTh and ran into (now) chip leader Justin Maddox’ dominating KhQh.

The all-low 5s2c2h8d8s never gave either a sweat to send Miker out after the pay jump and push Maddox near 1.5 million.
