Holmes flipped over 5?6? for six-high while Yamada tabled K?3? for a flopped two pair to take down the substantial pot, surging him back into the chip lead.

On a heads-up flop of J?6?8?, Derrick Yamada checked to Edward Liu who bet 200,000, but then Yamada check-raised to 700,000.
After some thought, Liu moved all in and Yamada snap-called to put him at risk.
"Wowww, cooler," Liu sighed as he tabled J?8? for two pair, but was in second place to Yamada's flopped set with 6?6?.
Liu could still hit a jack or ann eight for a bigger full house, but the runout of 9?3? did not do it and he was sent to the rail in fourth place.

Short-stacked Andrew Whitmer moved all in preflop and was called by none other than Derrick Yamada to put him at risk.
Andrew Whitmer: K?4?
Derrick Yamada: A?J?
Yamada was already ahead with his superior holding, and the runout of A?10?Q?Q?K? only improved him to a straight to take down the pot, eliminating Whitmer in fifth place.
