Nearly 10,000 was already in the pot as three players saw a flop of 4♥3♥2♠. Steven Macleod then bet 4,000 from the cutoff and Vivian Saliba called in the small blind. Zipan Huang then moved all in for 20,300 and Macleod quickly folded. "Hmm," Saliba muttered as she took a minute before calling to put Huang at risk.
Zipan Huang: 9♥7♥
Vivian Saliba: 9♣9♠
Saliba was ahead with her nines, while Huang was on a flush draw. The 9♦ turn improved Saliba to a set, while Huang missed the 7♦ river and was sent to the rail for the second time today.

Around 12,000 was already in the pot as Thomas Gardiner, David Jackson, and Liam Johnston went to the turn on a board of 9♦Q♦6♥9♠. Gardiner then bet 6,000 from the cutoff and only Johnston called in early position.
The river was the 8♣ and Gardiner quickly put out 13,000, not realizing that Johnston had yet to act. The floor was called over and Johnston then put in 400. Gardiner was given the option just to call or fold, and he tossed in a chip.
Johnston had A♦10♦ for a missed flush draw, while Gardiner also turned over A♠10♠ to chop the pot.

"Wow," Jackson yelled out, showing A♣J♣ for a full house as the massive pile of chips worth more than 100,000 was pushed to Lyall.

Igeibert turned over J♠9♥ and needed to improve to stay alive, but he missed the K♣ river as Manley scooped the entire pot to send Igeibert to the rail.
"What a shock, aces," tablemate Nick Eastwood told him.

Ricardo Mateus moved all in for 7,700 from under the gun and Fraser Armstrong called on the button. Felice Minervini then reshoved in the big blind and Armstrong tanked for a minute before calling for his last 15,000.
Ricardo Mateus: A♣Q♥
Fraser Armstrong: 10♥10♣
Felice Minervini: 10♠10♦
"I'm not that bad," Mateus said as the flop came Q♠6♣8♦, giving him top pair and the lead.
"You still have outs," he told his two opponents, but they were left drawing dead after the 6♥ turn. The river was the J♦ and Mateus tripled up.
"It's because of the camera," Minervini joked with Mateus, pointing out the 888poker media that was recording Mateus.
"Stay there the entire tournament," Mateus said to the cameraman.
