Jason Ward open-shoved for 75,000 and got called by Joseph Mullen, who had slightly more chips.
Jason Ward: A♣10♠
Joseph Mullen: A♥Q♣
Ward needed help, but it did not arrive on the 8♦3♠5♥J♦6♦ runout and he booked a late exit on Day 1e.
Leon Jordaan got his stack of 89,500 in the middle from the small blind against Thomas Trotman-Dickenson in the big blind, who played the covering stack.
Leon Jordaan: 3♠3♦
Thomas Trotman-Dickenson: A♦Q♥
Jordaan remained safe on the 5♥9♠9♣J♣ runout, but the J♦ river counterfeited his pocket pair as he ended up playing the board. Trotman-Dickenson's ace kicker played, seeing him obtain a stack of 40 big blinds.

Charles Wilson raised to 2,500 from under the gun before Tomas Geleziunas made it 10,000 to go from middle position. Patrick Connelly then jammed all in from the cutoff, and the action folded back to Geleziunas, who immediately called with the covering stack.
Patrick Connelly: Q♠Q♦
Tomas Geleziunas: A♠A♣
Geleziunas' aces received a clean runout of K♦7♠2♦2♠K♣, resulting in the elimination of Connelly.
Andrey Cruz moved in from under the gun for a total of 7,300. The action folded to Thomas Hanley, who made the call with the covering stack.
Andrey Cruz: A♥8♦
Thomas Hanley: J♠7♠
Hanley made a pair on the 4♦J♣3♠ flop, and when Cruz failed to do so on the 3♦6♥ runout, he headed towards the exit of the tournament room.
