After a limp from Howard Xu under-the-gun, Alex Green opened to 7,000 and was called by two players before Xu limp-raised to 48,000, leaving just 3,000 behind.
Green then moved all in himself which produced folds from the other two players while Xu tossed in his remaining chips.
Howard Xu: 5♦5♣2♥2♠
Alex Green: K♠K♣Q♦8♣
Xu would need to improve to stay alive, and the flop of 3♠4♣7♠ gave him an open-ender, but the runout of J♥3♥ could not get him there and he was eliminated while Green collected the pot.

Alejandro Jauregui opened to 10,000, Alex Green raised to 45,000 and Vladyslav Shovkovyi called. Then Jauregui four-bet to 187,000 and after some thought, Green stuck the rest of his stack in for 200,000.
Then the action was on Shovkovyi, who tanked for almost two minutes before he moved all in for 209,000. Jauregui quickly called to put both players at risk and the hands were tabled in the chip-lead pot.
Alex Green: A♣K♣Q♦5♦
Vladyslav Shovkovyi: K♠J♦10♠9♥
Alejandro Jauregui: A♦A♥10♣6♠
Jauregui was in the lead with his aces, but the flop of 7♦6♥4♦ gave Green a flush draw. The turn A♠ further strengthened Jauregui's holding with top set, but a miracle 8♠ smacked down on the river to give Shovkovyi the gutshot for the nut straight!
He was then awarded the massive pot to propel him into the chip lead while Green headed to the exit and Jauregui was left short.

Jake White opened to 16,000 and was called by Roger Franco and LaDarren Banks to see a flop of 4♣K♥5♦. All three players checked and they went to the turn 10♥.
Banks then moved all in for 28,000 and White called to put him at risk while franco got out of the way.
LaDarren Banks: Q♠J♥10♠9♦
Jake White: A♥J♣9♥8♠
Banks was in the lead with his pair and wrap, but White could still hit a queen or a heart to win it. Sure enough, the rive was the 6♥ and White was awarded the pot while Banks hit the rail.

Christopher Bello moved all in preflop for 27,000 and was called by Vladyslav Shovkovyi and Southisak 'Tony' Seunsom to put him at risk.
On the flop of 3♣J♦8♣, Seunsom led for pot which forced a fold from Shovkovyi and the cards were tabled.
Christopher Bello: A♥8♦7♦7♥
Southisak Seunsom: A♣Q♠J♣10♦
Seunsom was well in the lead with his pair of jacks and nut flush draw, and the runout of J♠6♣ gave him trips on the turn and a flush on the river to send out Bello.
