Three-way to a 9♥2♥5♥ flop, Yuhan Wang and Benny Glaser checked from the blinds to Stefan Heizmann on the button. Heizmann placed a bet of 3,000, which Wang raised to 9,000.
Glaser quickly got out of the way, but Heizmann called to the 6♦ turn. After a bit of thought, Wang shoved all in for 40,000. Heizmann called once he confirmed the amount.
Yuhan Wang: 6♥4♥ 
Stefan Heizmann: K♥K♣
Wang had flopped a flush, but Heizmann made a higher flush on the 8♥ river to secure the pot and eliminate Wang.

: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Longmao Fan had opened under the gun when Bosco Li put in a three-bet to 15,000 in middle position. Marcelo Bonanata then called all-in in the cutoff for exactly that amount, and Fan reshoved when the action was back on him.
Li went deep into the tank, eventually deciding to call off his stack of 71,500 to put himself at risk of elimination.
Marcelo Bonanata: K♥K♦
Bosco Li: A♠K♠
Longmao Fan: Q♥Q♣
Li's dire situation improved as the 5♥4♣J♠3♠ turn gave him flush and straight outs, but the river fell the inconsequential 4♦ instead.
Bonanata scooped the pot with his kings, and Fan was awarded the sizable side pot with his pocket queens.

Xavier Cortazar raised to 4,000 from under the gun, which only Will Kassouf called in the big blind.
Kassouf checked on the 9♠A♦J♥ flop before calling a continuation bet of 5,000.
The 5♣ turn joined the board, and when Kassouf checked for a second time, Cortazar continued with a bet of 12,000, which was enough to see Kassouf relinquish his hand.

Igor Pihela open-raised to 7,500 in the hijack. Joachim Haraldstad bumped it up to 21,000 in the cutoff, and Pihela called once it had folded back to him.
After the Q♣7♥9♥ flop checked through, Pihela bet 7,000 on the 2♥ turn. Haraldstad called, but he gave up on the hand and folded when Pihela piled in 13,500 on the 10♠ river.

Alexandre Doyer raised to 4,000 in middle position, which the player in the cutoff called before Alessandro Barone moved all in for 27,000. Doyer called, and the cutoff player folded.
Alessandro Barone: A♥Q♣
Alexandre Doyer: 7♥7♣
The deck favoured Doyer on this occasion, as the K♥9♦8♠10♦3♠ board left Barone unimproved, confirming his elimination.
