After being moved to the feature table on the break, 2013 World Series of Poker third-place finisher Amir Lehavot and UK pro Stephen Chidwick clashed in a huge pot.
We picked up the action after Chidwick had four-bet to 65,000 from the small blind and Lehavot five-bet to 120,000 from the button. Chidwick responded with a six-bet shove and Lehavot called off for 348,000. Chidwick barely had him covered, but he was the favorite.
Chidwick: 
Lehavot: 
It was a big flip for the chip lead, and according to the PokerNews Odds Calculator, Chidwick was a 56.55% favorite while Lehavot would survive 43.03% of the time. The 
flop was no help to Lehavot, and he fell to a 3-1 dog. The turn knocked him down even further to 13.64%, meaning he needed either an ace or king on the river to stay alive. On the other hand, Chidwick would win 86.36% of the time, and as fate would have it this was one of those times as the 
river improved him to a full house.
With that, Lehavot was eliminated in 106th place while Chidwick took over the chip lead.

Gaik Karabakhtcian moved all-in for his last 34,000. Valentino Yasenov Konakchiev called and flipped over . The only problem was that Igor Yaroshevskyy was still to act in the big blind. The floor was called and a ruling was made. Konakchiev’s hand would remain live throughout the rest of the hand, he could bet and raise, but after it was over he would have a one round penalty. It gave Yaroshevskyy an interesting dilemma and he thought for a while before making the call for 32,500. The dealer dealt a flop of 
. Yaroshevskyy checked as did Konakchiev. The turn was 
. Another check from Yaroshevskyy and now Konakchiev bet 20,000 which got the fold. The forgotten man in the hand who was all in could now flip over his 
and he needed to hit on the river. It was
