Armin Ghojehvand can't stop over-betting!
With 2,000,000 in the pot on a 9♦8♥Q♥6♥Q♦ board, Sirzat Hissou checked from the big blind and Ghojehvand shoved from under the gun. Hissou had around 2,700,000 behind and burned through all of his time banks before eventually making the fold.
Ghojehvand was kind enough to allow Hissou to pick one card to see, and he chose the 2♦.

There is a new chip leader in town, and he goes by the name of Armin Ghojehvand.
Justus Held opened the hijack to 200,000 and Ghojehvand defended his big blind.
Both checked the 6♠9♦5♥ flop to the 6♦ turn, where Ghojehvand bet 200,000 and Held called.
When the 4♣ hit the river, Ghojehvand shoved into the pot of 950,000, which gave Held a huge test for his stack of around 2,800,000. Time bank after time bank went into the pot and Held eventually came to a decision by tossing in a chip.
Ghojehvand showed K♣9♠ for a pair of nines, and that was good as Held flipped his A♦J♣ for ace-high.

David Nicholson shoved for 1,950,000 from the hijack and Mehdi Chaoui called for his stack of 1,355,000 on the button.
Mehdi Chaoui: A♠K♥
David Nicholson: A♣J♠
Chaoui had a great chance to double up, and took a step closer toward it after the Q♣Q♠9♦ flop. Though, a 9♣ on the turn dampened his spirits as the two currently held the same hand with ace-high and two pair on board.
However, Nicholson scooped the lot as the J♥ peeled off on the river, much to the dismay of Chaoui.

Daniel Rezaei raised to 200,000 from under the gun and Matthias Eibinger called in the hijack. Eelis Parssinen also called from the big blind.
All three checked the Q♠A♦3♦ flop to the 6♦ turn, where when it got to Rezaei, he bet 250,000. Eibinger called, and Parssinen folded.
An A♣ completed the runout and Rezaei put out a bet of 1,250,000, which got a swift fold out of Eibinger.

Players are on a 15-minute break.
Daniel Dvoress raised to 160,000 from under the gun and Daniel Rezaei called in the cutoff. Ben Lamb then shoved for 1,365,000 from the big blind, and Dvoress called off his stack of almost 1,000,000. Rezaei folded.
Daniel Dvoress: A♣J♠
Ben Lamb: 9♠9♣
It was a fair fight, that was until the 9♦5♦2♥ flop gave Lamb top set and a huge lead. Dvoress needed to go runner-runner, but couldn't do it as the 8♦J♣ runout sent him to the rail.

Jamil Wakil raised the cutoff to 175,000 and only Daniel Rezaei called from the small blind.
They went to a flop of K♥2♥9♦, where both checked to the 5♠ turn. Rezaei led for 325,000, and after some though, Wakil called.
A J♦ fell on the river and both players took their time to knuckle the table, where Rezaei showed a pair of nines with A♣9♠. That was no good, though, as Wakil had flopped a pair of kings with K♠10♦.
