Max Brown moved all in for 110,000 from the button and Jeff Newman called from the big blind.
Brown: 
Newman: 
The 
flop gave Brown top set and left Newman looking for either running aces or sevens. The 
turn took away any shot of that happening and Brown shipped the double after the 
was run out on the river.

Adin Cota got his stack all in preflop holding the 
and was in a bad spot against the 
of Derek Frye.
Cota's best shot at finding a double was to find an ace, and he did on the 
flop.
Neither the 
turn nor 
river changed a thing and Cota shipped the double.

Derek Frye raised to 30,000 from middle position and called when Jerry White three-bet all in for 190,000 from the hijack.
Frye:
White:
It was a flip but White needed to improve to stay alive. That proved easier said than done as the board ran out 
to give Frye the first $500 bounty of the final table.

The biggest buy-in tournament of the Run It Up Reno VIII – the $1,100 Thursday Thrilla – started with 178 entries battling it out at the Peppermill Casino. Today, the final eight will return to play down to a winner with Katie Lindsay and her stack of 1.104 million leading the way.
That’s nearly a third of the chips in play, more than double her next closest competition. You might recall that earlier this year Lindsay, the wife of poker pro and online poker’s winningest tournament player Chris Moorman, was a guest on the LFG Podcast, which you can listen to here.
Joining her at the final table are Timothy Guilford (497,000), Frank Lagodich (413,000), Fintan “Easy with Aces” Hand (127,000), and Max Brown (140,000), who has already improved upon his 15th-place finish in this same event last year.
Remember, each player at the table has a $500 bounty on their head.
