Guoliang Wei open-shoved for 155,000 from middle position. Akihiro Konishi called on the button, after which Anatoly Filatov rejammed for 715,000 from the big blind.
Konishi spent a while in the tank, then reluctantly called, putting Filatov at risk as well.
Guoliang Wei: 8♠8♥
Anatoly Filatov: K♥K♦
Akihiro Konishi: 10♠10♥
Filatov filmed as he found a set on the 9♥K♠5♥ flop. The 7♠ secured him the side pot, while the A♥ river solidified his scoop.
Georgios Skarparis open-raised to 50,000 from early position. Harry Halim flat-called in the cutoff, after which Damir Gabdullin three-bet to 225,000 on the button.
Aleksandr Kropotov then called cold from the big blind, while Skarparis and Halim opted to get out of the way.
Gabdullin continued for 110,000 on the 10♦3♣7♠ flop. Kropotov check-called, but when Gabdullin sized up to 475,000 on the 4♥ turn, Kropotov check-folded to surrender the pot.
Congya Zhang opened to 50,000 from the hijack. Paul Phua called on the button, prompting big blind Oleg Silin to three-bet to 150,000.
After Zhang called, Phua moved all in for roughly 1,000,000. Silin and Zhang folded in quick succession, awarding the pot to the Triton Poker founder without showdown.

Ehsan Amiri open-shoved his last 315,000 from the hijack, and Kalle Parkkinen called on the button.
Ehsan Amiri: A♦J♥
Kalle Parkkinen: 8♥8♦
Parkkinen's eights remained ahead on the 2♣2♦9♦ flop and K♦ turn, but the 6♦ river brought a fourth heart on the board, upgrading Amiri to the nut flush.
Elias Suhonen opened to 40,000 under the gun, after which it folded to Damir Gabdullin in the big blind. He three-bet to 170,000, prompting Suhonen to four-bet to 320,000.
Gabdullin called to the 10♦9♠8♥ flop, but there he switched gears and led out for 80,000. Suhonen did not buy it and sent his stack of 565,000 into the middle, only to be snapped off by Gabdullin.
Elias Suhonen: K♥K♦
Damir Gabdullin: A♥A♦
Gabdullin turned Suhonen dead on the A♣, and the Finn gave the table a tap and left the tournament area as the meaningless J♠ river completed the board.
Seunghyuk Jung open-raised to 50,000 in the hijack. Boris Angelov put in a small three-bet to 115,000 on the button, and he called when Jung jammed all in for 475,000.
Seunghyuk Jung: 9♠9♥
Boris Angelov: A♥K♦
The flip was decided in Jung's favor when the board ran out 2♣7♦4♦10♠Q♥, leaving Angelov with just under 20 big blinds in his stack.
