Conor O'Driscoll opened to 5,500 in the cutoff and "AS" shipped all in for 76,000 on the button. Steven Game asked for a count from the big blind and then also pushed all in as the big stack. O'Driscoll folded and the two hands were tabled.
"AS": A♥K♥
Steven Game: 10♠10♣
The flop came 8♥7♠6♣ and Game stayed in the lead with his pair of tens. The 9♥ on the turn gave Game a straight but "AS" picked up a flush draw. It was the 10♦ on the river that put a straight on the board and both players smirked as they pulled back their chips.

Picking up the action on the turn, Leon Campbell and Tan Le were heads-up on a board of A♠K♠4♠4♣. Campbell checked from the small blind and Le tossed in a bet of 18,000 in the cutoff. Campbell check-raised all in and Le shrugged as he called off his stack of around 85,000.
Tan Le: A♣6♠
Leon Campbell: A♦8♥
The two players were currently chopping the pot but Le had the better redraw with a flush draw. However, the K♥ hit the river and the table gazed over the board until they finally realized that Campbell's eigh-kicker now came into play. Le was disgusted to find out that he lost the pot and was bounced from the tournament.

Jiaze Li and Lin Chen were heads-up in a three-bet pot with around 70,000 in the middle. The flop came 8♥7♥5♥ and Li led out with a bet of 23,000 from the small blind. Chen moved all in for 159,500 in early position and Li asked for a count. After using a time bank, Li made the call and the cards were on their backs.
Lin Chen: 9♠9♣
Jiaze Li: A♠A♣
Li was out front with his pair of aces but Chen still had a few outs in the deck. The 2♦ on the turn and the 3♣ on the river changed nothing and Li's pocket aces held on to extend his chip lead.

Vivian Saliba was the last 888poker ambassador in the field with the early eliminations of Ricardo Mateus and Lucia Navarro. However, on the first hand back from break, Saliba's short stack could not survive any longer as she headed to the rail short of the money.

"PO" flipped over Q♣10♣ for a flush and Vandanapu was left drawing slim with A♦6♦. The river was the 7♠ and Vandanapu was sent to the rail.
