: 400/800, 100 ante
After a player raised to 2,000 from under-the-gun, Melanie Weisner made the call and then watched as the small blind moved all-in for 12,200. The original raiser folded but Weisner decided to put the small blind at risk and she came along.
Showdown:
Weisner: 
Opponent: 
Weisner had woken up with a big ace, but her opponent held a better kicker and had Weisner in bad shape. The final board rolled out 
and Weisner's Broadway straight was second-best to her opponent's spade flush. She dropped to 38,000 with the loss but still holds a healthy stack as Day 1 winds down.
Jonathan Duhamel was involved in big hand holding 
, which dominated the 
held by his opponent. When the flop came 
, however, the defending Main Event champion was on the wrong end of a bad beat. The on the turn and 
on the river left Duhamel with an inferior two-pair and he dropped to just 5,500 chips in a crippling loss.
Shortly afterward we caught Duhamel shove his short-stack before the flop with . He was called by one player, who showed down , and Duhamel's hand held up on a final board of 
. He now has 11,500 chips, and while that is still a bit short at this stage of Day 1, we can never count out the man who claimed poker's premiere prize just one year ago.

After an opponent raised all-in for his last 3,700, Ricky Fohrenbach made the call and flipped up {4s]
. The other player held 
and the two were racing for the pot.
The final board rolled out 
and Fohrenbach crossed the finish line first, winning with his pair of fours. The win boosted his stack to around 26,000 as level nine came to a close.
Melanie Weisner opened for 1,300 from the cutoff and her opponent on the button min-raised to 2,600. The blinds folded and Weisner called.
The flop came 
and Weisner check-called a 1,300 bet from her opponent. She check-called another 1,300 bet when the 
fell on the turn. However, when the 
river, both players checked.
"Gotta pair?" Weisner asked. Her opponent flipped over 
.
"That's good," Weisner quipped while mucking her cards.
Weisner is down to 30,000.
