Under the gun, Jason Young raises to 90,000. Tom Dwan makes the call a few seats over in position, and they go heads up to the flop.
It comes , and Young knocks the table. Dwan does the same, and the appears on fourth street. Young stacks out 150,000 and slides the chips forward, and that wins him the pot as "durrrr" quickly releases his cards.
Austin McCormick raises to 95,000 in early position before Kyle Winter moves all in for 405,000 right behind him. In the small blind, Michael Smith makes the call, and Winter is officially at risk. Not to be outdone, McCormick moves all in over the top of both players. After some hemming and hawing, Smith ducks out of the way, and McCormick is heads up with a chance at the knockout.
McCormick:
Winter:
The board comes . Unable to improve his overcards, Winter has been eliminated in 8th place, and that's two knockouts in the first three hands back from break.

Simon:
"ACE!!!!! QUEEN!!!!!" Ladny's rail yells.

The hand is over, and Ladny is standing to leave as the falls on the river.
He shakes some hands before leaving the tournament area to collect $45,603 for his 9th place finish.
Tom "Durrrr" Dwan isn't spending his one-hour dinner break eating and refueling.
