There was a raised to 8,000 in early position before Denis Zelenkin three-bet to 22,000 from a couple of spots to the left. The button put in another raise to 56,000, and the action folded back around to Zelenkin as he moved all-in. The button had roughly 212,000 and made the call.

Zelenkin was on the right side of the cooler and the A♠7♣5♣10♥2♦ run out improved him to a set of aces as his opponent exited the tournament.

The under-the-gun player opened to 11,000, and Gihad Ismail called next act, followed by Mustafa Biz doing the same.

The dealer fanned a flop of K♣Q♦4♦, and all three players quickly tapped the table to see the 9♦ turn. The under-the-gun player checked once more, and Ismail tossed two chips across the line for a bet of 10,000.
