Sung Keem limped under the gun and then called a raise to 80,000 from Carson Wieland on the button.
The players checked to the river on the A♠J♣9♣9♦8♥ board before Keem bet 125,000.
Wieland then potted it to 575 which would commit Keem if he were to do anything but fold.
After a couple of minutes, he did just that, sending the pot to Wieland who tossed open A♣K♦Q♥2♠ for aces up.

With a sizeable portion of his stack in the middle from the big blind, Thomas Shipp moved in his last 180,000 on the 10♠8♠7♣ flop and got called by Sung Keem under the gun to put him at risk.
Thomas Shipp: A♣A♥6♠2♦
Sung Keem: K♦Q♠9♦7♠
Keem had straight and flush draws versus Shipp's aces, and the J♠ turn gave Keem his flush draw, leaving Shipp drawing dead before the 5♦ river completed the board.
Just one more elimination is needed before the livestreamed final table.

Just over 100,000 was already in the middle on a flop of A♣8♦4♠ when George Abi-Zeid in the small blind and Liam McDonough in the big blind exchanged bets and raises until McDonough's last 305,000 was committed and at risk.
Liam McDonough: A♦10♠9♦3♣
George Abi-Zeid: A♥Q♠7♦6♠
The 8♠ on the turn paired the board, and the J♠ on the river improved Abi-Zeid to a flush to take the pot and send the final nine players to the livestreamed final table.
