Alex Foxen: XxXx / 9♦3♥3♦ - folded on fifth street
Qinghai Pan: XxXx / 7♠5♠8♦J♠ / Xx
Dylan Smith: XxXx / 6♣3♣2♥10♣ / Xx

Pan check-called another bet on sixth, and Smith fired a final bet on seventh, sending Pan into a small tank. He eventually decided to call, but he got the bad news as Smith tabled J♣4♣2♦ in the hole for a flush, good enough for the scoop.

Brad Ruben: XxXx/4x7x5xJx - folded on sixth street

Ruben slowed down with a check on sixth street, and he quickly folded when Hunichen bet.
Hunichen showed an eight-low and did not improve on seventh street. Milgrom found a seven-low with his final card, though, surviving his first all-in.
Not much later, Caitlin Comeskey was eliminated from another table, becoming the first player to depart from the $25k H.O.R.S.E.

Heads up to the A♦4♣A♥ flop, Luke Schwartz checked, and Matt Glantz bet. Schwartz then raised, and Glantz called. Schwartz kept firing on the 9♠ turn, seeing Glantz call again.
"How many aces are in this deck?" Glantz asked when he saw Schwartz put more chips into the pot on the J♣ river.
Glantz looked his opponent up, but he could not beat his A♠J♥ for a full house and mucked.

Stud Hi-Lo
Action picked up on fourth street four-ways between Luke Schwartz, Lou Garza, Daniel Negreanu, and Mike Wattel, with two bets going in from each on third.
Luke Schwartz: XxXx / Q♠9♠3♠3♥ / Xx
Lou Garza: XxXx / 8♠Q♦8♦2♥ / Xx
Daniel Negreanu: XxXx / 6♠4♥5♣6♣ / Xx
Mike Wattel: XxXx / 7♣2♣A♥ - folded on fifth street
On fourth, it checked to Negreanu who bet, and all three opponents called.
Negreanu bet again on fifth, Wattel tank-folded, Schwartz raised, Garza cold-called with open eights, and Negreanu.
It checked to Schwartz on sixth who bet, with both opponents calling.
Garza then led out of seventh, Negreanu raised, Schwartz cold-called, Garza made it three bets, Negreanu called, and Schwartz sigh-called.
Garza tabled A♣Q♥8♥ for a full house, while Negreanu had 4♣3♣2♦ for the low. Schwartz flashed the nut flush as he mucked.
"I didn't think he [Schwartz] would call twelve, but he would call six," Negreanu explained as to why he didn't put in the fourth bet on seventh.
Schwartz lamented his luck, knowing that his flush was good for the scoop on sixth, but both opponents made their hand on seventh.
