12:33pm: One orbit, one flop
Our final eight are still feeling each other out, with every pot except one taken down with a pre-flop raise. In the one hand that saw post-flop action, Rogelio Pardo made it 50,000 to go from the button and Carlos GIron looked him up from the small blind. Both players checked the 8♠4♥ 2♠flop, then checked again when the 9♠hit the turn. The river was the 9♣ and Giron led out for 25,000. Pardo folded and Giron took down the pot, flashing the 9♥ for trips.
