Heads-up to the 8♠5♣3♣J♥ turn, Kawazu check-raised and then called all-in when his table neighbour jammed over the top. His 3♦3♥ for the flopped bottom set was guaranteed the win already as his table neighbour was caught on the move holding 10♣8♥ for a pair of eights only, which made the 9♣ river a formality.

Two players were all-in over on table 407 and the larger of the two stacks belonged to NAO NAO, who was at risk with the A♣J♣. A short stack got the chips in with the K♦Q♦ while both were looked up by the button with the K♠Q♥. No player connected with the 8♦7♣2♠8♠5♠ runout for NAO NAO to double and score a knockout.

ikey168 raised to 1,800 and was called only by Keitaaa in the big blind in a duel of two larger stacks at their table. They checked to the J♣7♣5♥A♥6♦ river on which Keitaaa bet 2,800 to win the pot uncontested. One hand later, Keitaaa dragged in more chips when 6♦6♣ was good on an ace-high board.

The floor was called and there was some confusion about the preflop betting, which ended up being just a raise and two calls to the A♥8♥7♣ flop. The small blind bet 1,500 and Nao922 flat-called, as did the button. After the 9♣ turn, the small blind bet 5,000 and Nao922 declared all-in.
No call followed and Nao922 flashed his A♠A♣ for the top set on a draw-heavy board.
