Phil Ivey raised to 3,000 in the cutoff, which Matthias Eibinger called on the button, before Alisson Piekazewicz joined in from the big blind.
The dealer provided a monotone 10♠4♠2♠ flop, and Ivey continued for 6,000, and Eibinger raised to 15,000. Piekazewicz folded, but Ivey called.
The 8♠ checked through, but when Ivey checked again on the 5♣ river, Eibinger bet 23,000. Ivey called but immediately mucked his cards when Eibinger tabled Q♣J♠.
Edward Pak raised to 3,500 from the hijack, which Peter Wang called in the cutoff. Chang Lee then three-bet to 16,000 from the small blind, which only Pak called.
Lee continued for 5,500 on the 6♥5♥3♣ flop, and Pak raised to 22,000. Lee moved all-in for 85,000, and Pak called.
Chang Lee: A♥K♥
Edward Pak: 10♥9♥
Despite his flush draw being of no use, Pak found another way to win, as the 10♠ turn improved him to top pair before the 5♠ river sealed Lee's fate.
Taking his bad beat on the chin, Lee headed to the rebuy desk and rejoined the field.
Bryn Kenney raised to 4,000 from under the gun, which Phil Ivey called directly to his left, and Matthias Eibinger called from the hijack.
Kenney checked on the A♠5♠4♦, and Ivey bet 8,000. Eibinger folded, but Kenney stuck around.
The 2♣ turn saw both players check, and the 5♥ completed the board. Kenney bet 12,000, and turned over A♦9♦ after Ivey called. It was bad news for Kenney, as Ivey tabled A♥K♣ for the same two pair, but with a better kicker.
Nick Petrangelo raised to 3,500 from early position, and Thomas Muehloecker and Roberto Perez called from the small and big blinds.
Petrangelo continued for 4,000 on a 2♥5♣J♣ flop, and Muehloecker check-folded before Perez check-called.
The 8♠ turn was checked through, but when the 4♣ completed the board and Muehloecker checked a third time, Petrangelo bet 20,000. Muehloecker called, but mucked his cards when Petrangelo tabled a rivered flush with his K♣Q♣.
Ren Lin opened to 3,000 in early position, which Adrian Mateos three-bet to 12,000 from the cutoff. When the action returned to Lin, he four-bet to 35,000, and Mateos called.
The dealer spread a 10♦4♦3♣ flop, and Lin continued for 30,000. Mateos raised to 78,000 and called when Lin three-bet shoved for 226,000.
Ren Lin: A♠A♣
Adrian Mateos: A♦9♦
The J♦ turn saw Lin drawing dead, with the inconsequential 10♠ completing the board.

The players are taking a 15-minute break.
Ren Lin raised to 2,500 on the button, which both Wai Kiat Lee and Daniel Rezaei called from the blinds.
When the action checked to Lin on a 4♥2♥10♠ flop, he continued for 5,000. Lee check-called, but Rezaei check-raised to 20,000. Undeterred, both Lin and Lee called.
When Rezaei barreled for 60,000 on the 3♣ turn, Lin and Lee quickly folded.
