Lulov got it in with Big Slick and lost a race against Mike Cohen’s pocket sevens to bow out in sixth place. Just before the dinner break, the short-stacked Harder bowed out losing a all-in preflop race with fives against Lulov’s ace-six, and after the remaining players ate it was time for Lulov, the start-of-day chip leader, to follow him out the door. Two and a half hours later, Eric Most succumbed after three-bet jamming with ace-jack only to have Brandon Lulov roll over pocket aces. Not long into the final table, Parker Rodriguez busted his short stack after losing a flip with ace-king to Christian Harder’s two red jacks.
