Alisa Sibgatova jammed for 270,000 from early position and was called by Saam Pishvaie from the small blind.
Alisa Sibgatova: 4♥4♠
Saam Pishvaie: A♦10♠
Sibgatova's pocket pair remained best following the Q♥4♣2♣8♥7♥ runout.
The following hand, Ankit Ahuja opened to 60,000 from the button. Pishvaie, with 405,000, made it 385,000. Action folded back to Ahuja, who moved all in as the big stack. Pishvaie then went into the tank, as the tournament was on a payjump. Some players were not fans of the stalling and called the clock fairly quickly. In the end, he put in the last of his chips.
Saam Pishvaie: 7♣7♠
Ankit Ahuja: A♣9♠
Pishvaie remained ahead following the K♠Q♦6♦ flop and K♥ turn, but Ahuja paired up on the 9♣ river to score the KO.

Get ready to strap in, because this may have been the wildest hand of the day.
Deborah Nizard opened to 75,000 from early position and was called by Federico Fundaro on the button.
The pair then engaged in some table talk, whether they would bluff or not bluff in the pot.
The dealer put out the Q♠8♥6♥ flop and Nizard continued for 75,000 before Fundaro clicked it to 150,000.
Nizard then asked Fundaro why he wasn't being "tranquille" as the 7♣ turn came into play. Both players checked, which brought in the 7♠ river.
With 525,000 in the pot, Nizard said something on the lines of "let's go," and moved all in for 930,000.
Fundaro was stunned, and uttered some expletives that would make a nun blush.
"I don't think I can fold," continued Funaro and then Nizard called for the clock. By the time the floor reached the table, Fundaro called as the bigger stack.
Nizard slammed her K♠6♠ on the table for sevens and sixes and was bested by Fundaro's 9♥7♥, which was good for trip sevens.
"You bluff a lot," added Fundaro as Nizard left her seat.
With that pot, Fundaro became the biggest stack in the room, with around 3,500,000 in chips.
