Johan Guilbert opened to 1,200 from middle position and called a three-bet of 4,200 from Kristopher Burchfield, who was in the hijack.
Both players agreed to show one card should the hand not get to showdown before the J♣A♣8♠ flop came.
Guilbert check-called a 2,000 bet from Burchfield and then both players checked on the 9♦ turn.
Guilbert checked a final time on the A♥ river and Burchfield said, "Damn, now I might be able to see two... nah," before tossing in a bet of 6,200.
Guilbert laid his hand down and picked a card. Burchfield revealed the 4♥, which got a grimace from Guilbert, sending Burchfield into laughter.
Sen Mu raised to 1,100 in the hijack, and Darin Parker three-bet to 3,500 from the cutoff. Raoul Kanme called in the big blind, and Mu called too.
When the action checked to Parker on a 10♦Q♦K♦ flop, she bet 6,000. Kanme called, but Mu folded.
The action checked down on the 2♥ and 3♥ runout.
Parker tabled A♦K♠, and Kanme mucked his hand.
David Nickel opened to 1,800 from middle position and Jose Lesta raised to 6,600 from the small blind. Nickel called, and the pair saw the 10♥A♦K♣ flop.
Lesta bet 3,200 and Nickel called to get to the 8♠ turn. Both checked and the 7♥ completed the board. No more bets were made, and the cards were tabled. Nickel showed Q♣Q♦ which saw him take down the pot after Lesta table his pocket jacks J♦J♥.
The hand was picked up with the full board of A♠2♥10♣A♣J♠ on the table.
Scott Wright bet 5,000 into a pot four times that. Philip Chun gave it some thought, before eventually deciding to call.
Wright tabled A♦J♦ for a full house.
"Um, I can't beat that," Chun said. "That was a donation."
Chun has more to donate than most. He won the Mini Mystery Millions event earlier in the series.
Aaron Van Blarcum raised to 1,500 from middle position before Hrair Kaladjian moved all in for 7,000 on the button. Aidan Kearns then reraised to 15,000 in the big blind.
"I wish I had a bad hand," Van Blarcum said as he tanked for a minute before folding, saying he had king-queen.
Hrair Kaladjian: A♦10♣
Aidan Kearns: A♣K♥
Kearns had Kaladjian dominated, and the 7♦2♦3♥8♠K♣ board improved him to top pair to send Kaladjian to the rail.
