Salim Usmanov put his 1,700,000 chips into the middle from under the gun with Mazen Halabi making the call from the small blind. Alexander Goulder jammed from the big blind, forcing Halabi to fold.
Salim Usmanov: 8♦4♦ 
Alexander Goulder: A♠9♠
If Usmanov could find some assistance from the dealer, he would be back up to five big blinds. The flop came down 6♣J♣3♦, and the turn was the 9♦ giving Usmanov a flush draw. However, the 6♠ landed on the river, and Usmanov was the final table bubble boy of the tournament.
Salim Usmanov shoved from the button for 14,325,000 and Yilu Yuan called from the big blind with slightly less chips than Usmanov.
Yilu Yuan: Q♠Q♦
Salim Usmanov: A♣6♠
Usmanov needed to find an ace or he would be left with crumbs. Usmanov was asking for an ace, but instead the flop came down J♠10♥5♣, keeping Yuan's queens ahead. The 8♥ on the turn meant only an ace on the river could save Usmanov. However, the 7♠ fell and Yuan doubled up.
Level: 32
Blinds: 800,000/1,600,000
Ante: 1,600,000
Alexander Goulder shoved from the cutoff and Nariman Yaghmai called from the button for his last 10,575,000.
Nariman Yaghmai: K♣10♥
Alexander Goulder: K♥Q♠
Goulder was in a perfect spot with king-queen against the king-ten of Yaghmai. The flop of A♣5♦3♦ didn't help either player and Goulder remained in the lead. The 2♠ turn offered some chop outs for Yaghmai, but the 7♥ river didn't help him.
Yaghmai was out in eleventh place, and now it was the final table bubble time.
Roman Stoika min-raised from the button and Emad Ghadamian defended out of the big blind.
Ghadamian check-called a bet of 1,800,000 from Stoika on the K♠J♥9♠ flop.
The turn came the 5♦ prompting Ghadamian to check again. Stoika fired a second barrel of 4,700,000, which was met with a raise to 11,000,000 from Ghadamian. Stoika didn't take long to fold and forfeit the pot to Ghadamian.
Level: 31
Blinds: 600,000/1,200,000
Ante: 1,200,000
Maksim Bura and Mekan Yusupov both got their chips in the middle preflop, with Nariman Yaghmai making the call, looking to potentially score a double knockout.
Maksim Bura: 4♥4♦
Mekan Yusupov: A♥J♥
Nariman Yaghmai: 8♥8♦
If Yaghmai were to lose this hand to both players, he would be left with just four big blinds. The board ran out 7♣J♣Q♥3♦A♣, giving Yusupov a triple up with two pair, and sending Bura out in twelfth place.
Roman Stoika came in with a raise to 2,000,000 from early position and Giorgiy Skhulukhiya three-bet jammed his 13,000,000 from the button. Nemanja Lukovic called his last 7,500,000 from the big blind and Stoika instantly called to put both players at risk.
Giorgiy Skhulukhiya: A♦5♦
Nemanja Lukovic: 10♠10♦
Roman Stoika: K♦K♣
Skhulukhiya and Lukovic had gotten it in behind against Stoika's two Cowboys.
The flop came down Q♦J♠5♠ to give Skhulukhiya bottom pair and some backdoor draws. The J♦ landed on the turn to provide Skhulukhiya with a flush draw. However, the 2♣ appeared on the river, meaning Stoika's kings won him the pot, while Skhulukhiya and Lukovic were out.
With 6,500,000 in the middle on a flop of 8♠2♠2♣, Yilu Yuan checked from early position and Alexander Goulder checked out of the hijack.
The 3♣ turn checked through for the 10♣ to fall on the river. Yuan led out for 1,500,000 and was met by a raise to 6,500,000 from Goulder. Yuan decided to make the call and was shown the ace-high flush by Goulder with A♣9♣. Yuan mucked A♠K♥.
