Action folded to Ran Ilani in the small blind, who jammed for his last 25,000, and Masashi Oya made the call in the big blind.
Ran Ilani: A♣3♦
Masashi Oya: A♦6♣
Ilani had run into a better ace, and although a chop seemed possible, Oya's kicker played on the Q♦10♣4♦Q♠2♥ runout.

Aleksei Savenkov just sent both Pablo Silva and Karolis Sereika packing in the same hand, after the three players were all in preflop.
Karolis Sereika: K♣8♥
Pablo Silva: A♣10♣
Aleksei Savenkov: K♠Q♥
Savenkov paired his king and stayed in the lead with his queen kicker on the K♥7♥6♦J♠10♦ runout, which sent both Sereika and Silva to the rail in one swoop.

Ankit Ahuja is no more in the EPT High Roller. The action was missed, but on a board of 9♥J♣10♠A♥7♠, all of Ahuja's chips were in the middle with A♠10♣.
Unfortunately for Ahuja, Masashi Oya had flopped the nuts with K♦Q♥, which meant the Indian player was sent to the rail as the bubble looms closer.

Gregoire Auzoux and Marius Kudzmanas got their stacks in the middle preflop with Adrian Cazacu trying to score the double elimination.
Gregoire Auzoux: Q♥10♣
Marius Kudzmanas: Q♦J♣
Adrian Cazacu: A♥K♥
Cazacu just needed his Big Slick to hold up and the remaining players would all edge closer to the money. The 2♥2♣8♥ flop was great for Cazacu as he picked up a flush draw. The K♦ turn left Auzoux and Kudzmanas drawing dead, as the 10♥ fell on the river to give Cazacu a flush, and they were out of the event.

Diogo Coelho opened from middle position and Arsenii Karmatckii three-bet from the hijack. When it got back to Coelho, he shoved, and Karmatckii called for his stack of around 100,000.
Arsenii Karmatckii: K♦K♥
Diogo Coelho: Q♠Q♦
Karmatckii was well in the lead and looked set to double up, until the flop of Q♣9♥4♥ gave Coelho top set. The 4♦ on the turn gave Coelho a full house, and Karmatckii couldn't find a king on the 8♣ river, which meant he was eliminated.
