In one of the last hands at the previous level, Trevor Hills shoved for about 40,000 over an under-the-gun open to 4,500 from Rob Wazwaz, who made the call.

"If you can call, you're good," Hills said, turning over {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}. Indeed, Wazwaz had {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts} for a dominating hand.

An {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} flop gave Hills nothing, but a {k-Diamonds} opened up a backdoor flush chance. The {6-Diamonds} gave him the flush, and he apologized for the beat. Wazwaz was left with about 46,000 but he busted shortly thereafter.

Also during the previous level, Thao "Scratch" Thiem doubled up with {q-}{j-} when he flopped two pair on {a-}{q-}{j-} against the {a-}{k-} of Peixin Liu, who didn't improve.

Meanwhile, Gennady Shimelfarb busted out.
