Jose Trapote Muniz found himself in the middle of a lot of action. Opening the action, Trapote Muniz open jams from under the gun for 355,000. Two players folded before a middle position player re-shoved for just over 800,000. However, action only made it to the small blind before there was a third all in, this one for 210,000. The big blind folded and cards were flipped.
Small blind: 
Jose Trapote Muniz: 
Middle Position: 
Trapote Muniz was calling for an 8 in the window, however the flop instead fell 
.
As the only player with a diamond, Trapote Muniz now wasn't sure what he was after.
The turn made things even better for him, falling with the 
.
A 
on the river was a relative brick, and he managed to miss everything but still win with one pair. The small blind was eliminated and Trapote Muniz effectively trebled up to just over 1 million chips.

Travis Colella was on the verge of causing controversy on his table. Action folded round to the blinds, where Kevon O'Donnell raised to 320,000, covering Travis Colella. Colella looked at his first card with an audible "oooh".
A glance at the second caused another squeak of excitement, then a pause as he eyed up the chips in the middle.
"It's a good hand", he declared, before thinking a moment. "Ok, I call."
Travis Colella: 
Kevin O'Donnell: 
"You slowrolled him man," a player out of the hand commented.
That didn't stop Colella from getting excited on a flop of 
though.
He laughed as the turn fell 
, but a 
on the river burst his bubble as O'Donnell spiked two pair.
"That's justice for the slowroll," the player out of the hand commented as Colella departed the table.
