Paul Johnston jammed for 3,000,000 from the cutoff and was called by Kully Sidhu in the small blind.
Paul Johnston: A♥Q♦ 
Kully Sidhu: A♣10♠
Johnston had Sidhu crushed, and the K♠3♠3♦ flop appeared clear.
However the 4♠ turn gave Sidhu the spade draw, and the 7♠ hit on the river in cruel fashion to send Johnston to the rail.
Level: 35
Blinds: 150,000/300,000
Ante: 300,000
Scott Reynolds opened to 500,000 from middle position, and received a call from Steve Jelinek on the button, before Kartik produced a three-bet to 1,050,000 from the small blind. Both of his opponents called.
On the A♣K♥7♣ flop, Kartik led out with a bet of 1,800,000, leading to swift folds from both of his opponents.
Peter Kelly jammed from middle position for around 2,100,000 and was looked up by Scott Reynolds in the big blind.
Peter Kelly: A♥9♠
Scott Reynolds: K♣K♠
Kelly had run into a monster, and he could not find sufficient help on the 9♦7♥3♠J♣5♥ runout, becoming the first player to depart the final table.
No significant action thus far at the final table, with Scott Reynolds and Harry Bibby jamming but getting no action.

The players have been sent on a 15-minute break while the final table is prepared.
Steve Jelinek opened to 500,000, Oliver Braddock moved all in for 450,000 from the small blind, and Christopher Kirtley called in the big blind.
The active players checked down the 8♠7♠4♥A♣9♥ runout until the river, where Kirtley check-folded versus a bet of 300,000 from Jelinek.
Braddock tabled 3♥2♥ for air, and Jelinek took the pot with J♦10♠ for the rivered straight.

Yani Yanev was all-in for around 1,300,000 and at risk against Kully Sidhu.
Yani Yanev: 6♣6♦
Kully Sidhu: A♦7♦
Yanev was ahead in a flip, and seemed to be heading for the double-up after turning the straight on 4♦3♥2♥5♥, but Sidhu binked a two-outer in unbelievable fashion as the 6♠ rolled off on the river to give him the higher straight.
