Jung Son was all in and at risk against Adam Agaev on his left as the cards were tabled.
Jung Son: A♣Q♥ 
Adam Agaev: A♠A♥
Agaev's pocket aces remained in front through the K♦3♦J♣A♦Q♣ runout, improving to a set and sending Son out in 22nd place.
Frank Funaro opened to 150,000 in the small blind and Norman Rogers defended his big blind to the 7♥K♣9♣ flop.
Both players declined to bet and the 9♦ turn hit the table. Funaro checked again, making the call when Rogers slid out a bet of 150,000.
Another check from Funaro followed the 2♥ river, with Rogers sizing up to 350,000. After taking some time, Funaro announced a call.
Rogers tabled Q♠9♠ for trip nines, taking down the pot as Funaro mucked.
Level: 25
Blinds: 25,000/50,000
Ante: 50,000
A pair of players were at risk on neighboring tables, starting with Thomas Hill up against William Beer.
Thomas Hill: A♦10♥
William Beer: Q♠Q♣
Hill ran into pocket queens and could not catch up on the 4♣8♥6♥8♠9♠ runout, hitting the rail in 24th place.
Angel Modica was next to fall on table 29, ending his tournament run in 23rd position.
Steven Ettenger had Jung Son covered with the chips in the middle and the cards on their backs.
Jung Son: K♣Q♠
Steven Ettenger: A♦Q♦
Ettenger increased his advantage on the 2♠A♥Q♣ flop, but table reacted loudly as Son caught the K♥ turn and K♠ river to come from behind and double up.
That left Ettenger short, and he was at risk on the very next hand against Brandon Mincher.
Steven Ettenger: K♠Q♠
Brandon Mincher: A♠J♦
Mincher found a pair on the A♦2♦5♣4♠7♠ board, sending Ettenger to the payout desk.
Shortly before those two hands, Andrew Voor was eliminated on the next table.

Adam Agaev was all in and at risk against Howard Feingold across the table.
Adam Agaev: 10♣10♥
Howard Feingold: K♠K♥
Feingold was firmly in front and the Q♦4♦7♠ flop did nothing to change that. The J♣ turn was a blank, leaving Agaev drawing to a ten.
His prayers were answered on the 10♠ river, making a set to crack Feingold's kings and stay alive.
