Notable Hands:
The Pirate and The Professor
Max Pescatori opened for a raise to 14,000, but was faced with a reraise from Howard Lederer for an additional 21,000. Although Pescatori was sitting behind a sizable stack of chips, he respected Lederer's three-bet and let the hand go. Perhaps Lederer is receiving some luck from his sister Annie Duke, who has come to watch her brother after busting out of the Razz tournament.
Kloeckner Cleans Granstad's Clock
Kyle Kloeckner and Henning Granstad were all in before the flop.
Kloeckner: KKQ8
Granstad: AAJ8
The hold 'em-esque match up of aces versus kings saw a flop of 23523, Kloeckner's aces held up, and Granstad went home in 18th place.
