Andre Abreu opened the button before Nikolai Tulin jammed for 222,000 from the big blind. Abreu used a time bank before he decided to stick in the call to put Tulin at risk.

Nikolai Tulin: 8♥8♦ All in
Andre Abreu: A♠10♠

It was a coinflip scenario until the 9♣8♣2♣ flop gave Tulin a set. The A♣ on the turn left Abreu drawing to chop which did not come on the 7♥ river as Tulin collected the full double.

The table was still buzzing about Louise Francoeur's bustout to Maria Konnikova earlier as Nick Marchington opened to 24,000 in the hijack.

"I've never played with her before. We had no history," Konnikova said.

"I see her at a lot of circuit events. This was probably one of her biggest spots. I've lost my mind before too," Jonathan Tamayo added.

Jordan Glazer then moved all in for 200,000 in the big blind and Marchington snap-called.

Jordan Glazer: K♦9♦ All in
Nick Marchington: 9♠9♥

Glazer was looking for a king to stay alive, but he found no help on the 10♥10♦J♥7♣6♠ board as Marchington's pair of nines stayed in the lead to send Glazer to the rail.
