Ivan Tononi opened to 160,000 and Kieran Lynch moved all-in for 450,000. Tononi made the quick call to put Lynch at risk.
Kieran Lynch: A♥5♦
Ivan Tononi: A♣10♠
Lynch's ace was dominated and the 9♦3♠6♣8♥9♥ runout resulted in his exit, Tononi's ace-high with ten kicker being good enough to win the pot.
Francis Dervan got his final 350,000 chips in from the small blind against Ivan Tononi in the big blind, who made the call with the covering stack.
Francis Dervan: K♠J♣
Ivan Tononi: A♥J♠
Both players paired their jack on the 2♠4♣J♥8♠Q♦ runout, but Tononi's ace kicker gave him the winning hand, eliminating Dervan.
Brendan O'Halloran had moved all-in and was called by Audrius Daugvilavicius, with O'Halloran at risk.
Brendan O'Halloran: K♦10♣
Audrius Daugvilavicius: A♠Q♣
O'Halloran's king-high was behind Daugvilavicius' ace-high and he received no help from the 9♣9♠5♥8♠J♦ runout and exited the tournament.
Tomas Geleziunas opened to 120,000 in the cutoff and was met by a three-bet jam to 1,200,000 from Alan Kelleher in the big blind. Geleziunas made the quick call, slightly covering Kelleher.
Alan Kelleher: A♣5♣
Tomas Geleziunas: A♦K♠
Kelleher's ace was dominated by Geleziunas' ace-king, and Geleziunas improved further when he flopped the nuts straight on Q♠10♠J♥.
Kelleher was now left hoping for a king for a chopped pot but no help arrived on the J♦ turn and 4♦ river, sending him to the exit in 25th place.
Barry McMahon and Glenn Keogh were heads up on a board of 7♦10♦6♥2♣. A massive pot of 2,000,000 chips was already in the middle when Keogh bet 800,000 chips from the big blind, around half his stack.
McMahon responded by going all in with the covering stack, which sent Keogh into the tank. After asking if McMahon had flopped top set and not getting an answer, he put in the call for his tournament life.
Glenn Keogh: Q♣Q♦
Barry McMahon: K♠K♦
McMahon did not have a set but did have the higher overpair. The 10♣ river could not save Keogh, and he left the tournament area after the dealer made sure he was covered.
Tomas Geleziunas and Andrew Toole got their chips in the middle in a blind-on-blind battle, with Toole being the one at risk with his stack of 275,000.
Andrew Toole: A♣8♥
Tomas Geleziunas: A♥10♥
Geleziunas paired his ten on the 5♠10♠6♠ flop and left Toole drawing dead on the 5♦ turn. The K♦ river did not matter anymore and Toole sought the exit while Geleziunas chipped up to 15 big blinds.
Ian O'Flynn raised all in for 350,000 from early position, and he was looked up by Francis Dervan in the cutoff.
Ian O'Flynn: A♦7♥
Francis Dervan: A♣Q♣
Dervan ended up making a flush on the 2♣K♠3♥K♣10♣ board, sending O'Flynn home at the final four tables of the tournament.
Emmett Scott opened in early position and was faced with a three-bet jam from Day 1c chip leader Stephen Henderson to 375,000. Scott made the quick call to put Henderson at risk.
Stephen Henderson: A♠8♥
Emmett Scott: K♠K♦
Henderson needed to find an ace and the 5♦J♠K♣ flop left his hopes hanging by a thread. The J♦ turn confirmed his fate giving Scott the full house and sending Henderson to the rail after the Q♦ river.
