Chris DeQuatro and Mark Gibson’s luck seems to have shifted both doubling up through their tables respective chip leaders. DeQuatro was all in against Carter McMahon with his pocket 10’s and McMahon held a flush draw which missed to award DeQuatro the double up. A few hands later came Gibsons double up with AQo he flopped a flush draw vs Giuseppe Lomuscio who had hit a pair of J’s. Gibson ended up turning the Q high flush to win the hand and double his approx. 900k.

Chris Dequatro just got a doubled up in what started as a coinflip hand with his pocket 3’s vs Michael Renna who held K10. Going to the river, Renna had about 18 outs to hit an over card, flush, or a gut shot straight but managed to miss everything to have his stack crippled and give Dequatro a much needed double up.
