Action folded to Jeremy Becker in the small blind, and he limped in with 7♥2♥ and Brock Wilson checked his option with J♦4♣.
The flop came 9♥A♣4♥ and Becker led out for 80,000 with his flush draw, and Wilson called with his pair of fours.
The turn was the J♠ to give Wilson two pair, but Becker continued to bet with his flush draw, this time for 225,000. Wilson gave it some thought, before call to see the 9♣ on the river.
Becker with just seven high decided to give up and check, and Wilson checked back to take the pot after his two pair was counterfeited.
Brock Wilson raised to 105,000 from the cutoff, before Clemen Deng on the button three-bet to 400,000. Nick Schulman in the small blind then put in four-bet to 545,000, which was enough to put Deng all in, and he called to put himself at risk after Wilson folded.
Clemen Deng: A♦10♣
Nick Schulman: A♠J♣
Deng was dominated by Schulman, and he could find no help on the 3♦8♠2♦9♥9♦ runout, ending his run in fourth place.
Clemen Deng raised to 115,000 from the cutoff, and it folded to Jeremy Becker in the small blind who three-bet to 305,000. It folded back to Deng, who put in a small four-bet to 495,000. Becker then moved all in for 1,010,000, which Deng snap-called.
Jeremy Becker: 8♥8♦
Clemen Deng: A♥A♣
Becker ran into the aces of Deng, and on the brink of elimination. However, things quickly changed after the 5♠10♣8♠ flop gave Becker a set of fives. The 5♦ on the turn filled up Becker, and the 3♠ on the rive secured the double up for Becker.
Jeremy Becker opened the button with 8♠8♥ and was called by the big blind Clemen Deng with Q♥J♦.
Deng out flopped Becker on the J♥10♦3♠ flop, and checked to Becker, who bet out 130,000. Deng then raised to 280,000, and Becker got out of the way to give the pot to Deng.
Justin Vaysman opened to 100,000 in the hijack and was called by Nick Schulman in the big blind.
The flop came 2♠Q♥6♠ and Schulman checked over to Vaysman, who bet out 75,000. Schulman then bumped it up to 200,000, before Vaysman three-bet all in for 650,000, which Schulman snap-called.
Justin Vaysman: K♠K♦
Nick Schulman: A♠8♠
Schulman flopped a flush draw and would need a spade or ace to knockout Vaysman and his pocket kings. The turn ended things quickly as the 9♠ hit, leaving Vaysman drawing dead, and was officially eliminated in fifth after the 4♣ hit the river.

Wilson enters the final day riding a wave of momentum, fresh off winning the PokerGO Cup series title and already capturing a victory earlier in this festival. With another deep run here, he remains firmly in the hunt for the overall U.S. Poker Open series crown—but will need to chase down current leaderboard frontrunner, his own girlfriend, Cherish Andrews.
Play resumes at 1 p.m. local time in Level 18 with blinds at 25,000/50,000 and a 50,000 big blind ante, and will be streamed live on the PokerGO YouTube channel as the final five battle down to a winner.
