When walking past Table 369, we noticed that Patrick Coughlin had four-bet to over 15,000 preflop - more enough to put his opponent all in. His opponent, who was using a toy train car as a card protector, stacked his last few chips on the mini locomotive, and pushed it forward.
Opponent: 
Coughlin: 
Coughlin held as the board ran 
, pushing his stack to an impressive 118,000 chips.
With 36,000 in the pot through the turn on a 
board, Jared Hamby checked from the small blind and his opponent on the button moved all in for more than 50,000! Hamby had a decent stack of 32,000 behind and was put to the test.
Hamby tanked for a solid three minutes, oftentimes visibly shaking. Clearly this was a tough decision and a crucial point in his tournament. He must have decided there would be a better spot as Hamby eventually laid down his hand.

The action folded around to Joe Hachem who raised to 800 before the flop from the small blind; the big blind player made the call, so they went heads-up to a flop of 
, where Hachem led out for 1,200.
The big blind player called, but then folded after the 2005 WSOP Main Event champion fired out 1,900. Hachem's now back up to more than 37,000 in chips.

We were watching a hand being played between Raymond Davis and an opponent at the far end of Table 127. Meanwhile, Rob Pisano leaned over to let us know he had 72,200 at the moment.
"How much?" asked Lyle Berman, sitting a couple to Pisano's right. "72," he said. "What do you have?" "92," answered Berman, indicating the 92,000 sitting in front of him. "That's a woooorld apart," he added with a grin, and the two commenced to talk about the now-eliminated player from whom Berman secured that chip advantage over Pisano.
Meanwhile Davis was raising to 1,100 from the cutoff and his opponent on the button called. The flop came 
. Davis checked, his opponent bet 1,350, and Davis called. The turn was the 
, and Davis again check-called his opponent's bet, this time for 2,700.
The river was the 
. Davis checked one more time, his opponent fired an 8,000-plus chip bet, and Davis instamucked. He now how 38,000.

As the PokerNews Live Reporting Team made their way past Doug Lee's table, we noticed that Lee was sitting on a rather sizeable stack. When we enquired as to what happened, Lee explained that all the money was in the middle after a flop of 
.
"Set over set," Lee said. "He had fives, I had sevens. I'm on about 140,000 now." Boom!

We don't know exactly what happened preflop, but we know a raise took place because there was a decent amount already in the pot. With a 
flop a player in middle position bet out 1,200. Action was on Huck Seed who quickly and calmly made the call. The turn brought another bet from the player in middle position, this time for 2,500. Seed seemingly reacting and not thinking made the call very quickly again.
With a river both players slowly checked. The player in middle position flipped over first and showed 
. Seed then went on to make a very long groan of displeasure and dropped his cards in the muck.

On a 
flop, Brad Booth checked, and he let his lone opponent bet 2,200 before raising to 5,500. Mr. Opponent reraised all in for 10,200, and Booth quickly called with his much-bigger stack.
Showdown
Booth:
Opponent: 
Booth had flopped the joint with a straight flush redraw that he'd not end up needing. Top set failed Mr. Opponent as the turn and river 
sent him on his way.
Booth is up to 91,000 now as the push for the Day 1d finish line heats up.
A short-stacked player opened with a raise to 850 from early position, and it folded around to Victor Ramdin who defended his big blind. The flop came 
and both checked. The turn was the 
. Ramdin bet 1,200, and his opponent called.
The river brought the 
and checks from both players. "Sixes," said Ramdin, tabling 
. His opponent exhaled. "Not my day," he said, showing his and staring down at his stack of just over 6,000. "Nothing's good at the moment."
Ramdin's day hasn't gone that well -- he's at 17,000 at the moment -- but he's still smiling. Winning even a small pot will do that for a player.
