Kent Washington raised to 18,000 from middle position. When it was folded around to David Villegas, he re-raised Washington to a total of 78,000. Washington took a long time to consider his option, but he eventually folded.
David VIllegas has been playing aggressively and is climbing through the chip count.
There has finally been a big hand at Table 372. Kenyon Mckellar raised to 18,000, only to have David Fischer push all in for 51,000 total. Mckellar made the call:
Mckellar 
Fischer 
The 
flop gave Mckellar the lead. Fischer prepared to make his exit when the 
hit on the turn. An irrelevant 
came on the river. Fischer is over 100,000 while Mckellar has been knocked down to 31,000.
Eric Zuerndorfer was left with only 60,000 chips after doubling up David Villegas. Unfortunately for Zuerndorfer, Villegas wasn't done with him quite yet.
Villegas bumped it to 20,000 from middle position and Zuerndorfer took some time to contemplate the situation before going all in. Action folded back to Villegas who was quick to call.
Zuerndorfer: 
Villegas: 
The flop gave Villegas the lead when it came 
. Zuerndorfer's fate was sealed with the 
on the turn.
Yuta Motoyama just bounced back in a big way after slipping a bit in the previous hand.
David Patent opened to 16,000 from under the gun and the action folded to Motoyama who called in middle position. The remaining players folded and the two went heads-up to the flop.
The dealer flopped 
and Patent check-called a 25,000 chip bet from Motoyama. The turn came the 
, pairing the board, and again Patent check-called Motoyama. This time the amount was 30,000.
The river brought the 
and Patent checked for a third time. Motoyama instantly announced, "All in."
Faced with a 58,500 chip bet, Patent went deep into the tank. He cut out T5000 and T1000 chips to make the call and paused, staring into space. Finally he slid them past the point of no return and Motoyama quickly tabled 
for a full-house.
Patent showed 
for just a pair of tens and his stack shrunk all the way down to 105,000 chips. Concurrently, Motoyama's ballooned over a quarter-million chips.
The players at Table 372 are playing extra cautiously. In the past dozen hands, there has been one flop. It seems a preflop raise is enough to swipe the blinds and antes for now.
Yuta Motoyama raised to 12,000 from the hijack position. In the small blind, David Villegas announced he was all in for 54,000 more. Not to be outdone, Eric Zuerndorfer also committed his entire stack to the pot. Motoyama folded and the blinds were left to battle it out.
Villegas: 
Zuerndorfer:
Zuerndorfer had Villegas dominated, but that was only to last for a moment. The flop brought 
along with the on the turn and the 
on the river.
Zuerndorfer is hurting, and VIllegas finds himself above the average stack size.
When we arrived at Table 363, Matthew Hollinger and Yuta Motoyama already had all the chips in the middle and the hands were turned up:
Hollinger: 
Motoyama:
Motoyama flopped the world; 
. Still, Hollinger had hope.
"Tens have been good to me all day," he said confidently.
The 
on the turn missed Motoyama's draws, and so too did the on the river.
Hollinger's tens were good to him again, growing his stack to 90,000 chips. Motoyama's dipped to 130,000 chips.
The players have returned from dinner. Blinds are at 3,000/6,000 with a 500 ante. With the average stack being 120,000, there isn't a ton of play available to most players. They will play down to ten players before redrawing for the final table.
