Maxwell Young was among the late entrants and got his chips in with the 9♣9♥. Unfortunately for the American, he ran into the Q♦Q♠ of Darren Kramer and found no escape on the 6♥4♠2♦3♥6♦ runout.

Joey Weissman defended his big blind against Jean Souprayenmestry and checked the 10♥7♠3♦ flop. Souprayenmestry continued for 6,000 and received a call for Weissman to check the 6♥ on the turn. Souprayenmestry pushed all-in and Weissman snap-called.
Joey Weissman: 9♥8♣ 
Jean Souprayenmestry: J♠10♦
The 2♦ on the river changed nothing anymore, as Weissman already had the check mark. He doubled for 27,000 to leave Souprayenmestry short, who then busted to Hennie Appel soon after.

Three ways to the J♣9♦2♦K♥ turn, Alvin Pillay bet 6,000 and Panayiotis Giannakopoulos moved all-in for 16,500.
While focusing on his phone, Pillay shook his head and Jean Souprayenmestry was still in the tank. The Frenchman then folded and Pillay called after a few seconds of consideration.
Panayiotis Giannakopoulos: K♦7♦
Alvin Pillay: Q♥J♥
Giannakopoulos was ahead with top pair and the flush draw, while Pillay had second pair and a gutshot. One of the outs came with the 10♥ river to bust the Greek based in Tanzania.

Martin Diggle had built a solid stack prior to the dinner break and added further chips thereafter, sending two opponents to the rail. He flopped a set of sixes with 6♠6♥ on the K♠6♥5♥Q♦A♠ board and Patrice Ah-Nien could not get away from A♦K♣.
Ben then busted against Diggle as well before Joey Weissman was knocked out by Dave Nundloll.

Jehan Richards limped from under the gun and Nic Ioannoy got his last 4,500 in from two seats over. Terry Brookes and Saurabh Gulati called out of the blinds, Richards also came along.
Brookes led the K♦9♠3♦ flop for 10,000 and the only caller was Richards. Both checked down the J♥ turn and 6♥ river for Brookes to show A♦4♦ for the busted nut flush draw. Richards had that beat with K♥Q♠ and Ioannoy tossed his cards into the muck.

Colin Horgan was all-in for 18,000 preflop and Dave Nundloll isolated after the Q♣7♠6♦ flop.
Colin Horgan: K♥Q♥
Dave Nundloll: Q♦J♦
The 4♥ turn and A♠ river ensured the triple up for Horgan, who was happy to have avoided the re-entry cost and even got more chips out of it. Cliton Taliwanth was not as fortunate as he bowed out on the next table.

Benjamin "Guppie" Lingenfelder got involved in a three-bet pot to the K♦K♥4♣ flop which he bet for 8,000. His opponent raised to 25,000 and Lingenfelder folded to get shown K♠Q♦.
In the last hand of the level, Lingenfelder looked up the preflop all-in by Alan Jung for fumes.
Alan Jung: 9♦8♦
Benjamin Lingenfelder: A♦5♦
"I think I gonna win this one," Lingenfelder grinned and that prediction came true on the A♣J♣2♥6♦4♣ board.
He then told the dealer "I never win a hand before the break ... it's destiny" before heading out of the tournament area.

Devid Berlin limped from under the gun and called a raise to 3,000 by Stephen Courtney in the next seat. On the A♦10♥3♣ flop, Berlin check-called a bet and they checked the 9♠ turn to the J♦ river. Berlin now bet 10,000 with around 15,000 behind and he called all-in to the shove by Courtney.
The 3♦3♥ of Courtney for bottom set were good to score the knockout, as Berlin's A♠J♣ had flopped top pair and made two pair on the river.

Aidan Jacobs bet the Q♣8♥2♠7♠ turn for 7,000 and Muaaz Gani reluctantly folded. Gani was shortly after eliminated by Colin Horgan, who had sat down for the first hand in the big blind to send the Gani to the rail.
Ashley Hira and Mariette Language joined the rail while Marko Nortje avoided the same fate for now. In a multi-way pot to the 9♦8♥2♦ flop, Nortje jammed for 18,500 in the small blind. Leonard Dormehl, Didier Mery and Rudolf Fourie all folded and Nortje flashed the 6♦3♦ after Fourie had declared he can't call with six-high.

Russel Wheatley raised to 3,000 and earned two callers behind him in Gavin Sardini and Matthew Whitelaw.

Sardini called it down with the J♣J♥ and crashed out against the K♣K♥ of Wheatley.
