In a multi-way limped pot, Rudolf Fourie ended up all-in and at risk for around 18,000 on the 9♦5♦3♥ flop out of the small blind. He was looked up only by Joe Rahme in the big blind.
Rudolf Fourie: K♣9♠
Joe Rahme: 5♥3♦
The bottom two pair remained ahead all the way on the A♣ turn and 4♠ river, sending Fourie to the rail. Also no longer in contention is High Roller finalist Ronit Chamani, who departed from one seat over.

Gareth Kalil was all-in before the flop for a short stack of 14,300. He was looked up by Nick Sissou, who also revealed the superior hand in showdown on top of his superior stack size.
Gareth Kalil: Q♥10♥
Nick Sissou: A♦10♦
The K♣K♥4♦A♣J♣ runout provided broadway for Kalil and he escaped from elimination.

There are five tables in action right now and a very animated Huawei Sun called for the floor, then explained vividly how a player in the one seat could not see if Peter Sissou in the nine seat had cards still.
Sissou was also involved in the hand as he peeled a three-bet to the A♣8♥5♦ flop. With some 9,000 in the middle, Muzey Gothey bet 5,000 and Sissou folded.

Darryl Shaff raised and Okkie Fourie then three-bet to 4,800 in the big blind. "Okay, I gonna call and beat your ace-queen," Shaff declared and tossed in a T-5,000 chip for the call.
They checked the A♥K♠9♥ flop before both invested 6,000 on the 10♣ turn. Both checked again the 6♣ river and Shaff joked "give me the money" as he checked behind.
Fourie was first to show and tabled his A♣Q♠ for the top pair. Shaff had that indeed beat with the K♥10♥ and fulfilled both parts of his prediction.

A preflop raising war brought the chips of Bernard Gossard into the middle and he was looked up by Alvin Pillay, while Nick Sissou and Sugen Singh sent their cards into the muck.
Bernard Gossard: A♥J♥
Alvin Pillay: Q♥Q♣
The door card was an ace but the flop came A♠Q♠3♠ to give Pillay a set. Some chop outs came with the 8♠ turn but the K♥ river sent Gossard to the rail.

High Roller finalist Muaaz Gani bet the Q♥9♥6♥ out of the big blind for 1,100 and under-the-gun limper David Ng called. Gani then bet another 4,000 on the 3♥ turn for Ng to call before the A♦ river brought a third bet worth 5,500 by Gani.
Ng folded and mentioned he had flopped two pair.
