Anthony Xu moved all in from early position, and was at risk when Kareem Kilany shoved on the button. Yoon Kang then stuck in his stack from the big blind, and all three hands were turned up.
Anthony Xu: A♥A♦ 
Kareem Kilany: 10♠10♦
Yoon Kang: J♠J♦
Xu was never in danger on the 6♦K♠K♣5♠4♣ runout, seeing his aces hold to triple up. Kilany was unable to improve, losing the side pot to Kang.
"That wasn't GTO," Moz Edelstein said when Lorraine Stupak was knocked out by the table big stack Farhad Mohajerani.
Stupak's 5♦4♥ had flopped bottom pair on 9♠6♦5♥ but had a mountain to climb versus A♣9♣. The A♥ turn and 7♠ river ended her run late on Day 1c.
Yixiao Wang was all in from early position for 102,000, and Charalampos Petsos had his shorter stack in the middle on the button.
Charalampos Petsos: K♥K♦
Yixiao Wang: A♠A♥
Petsos saw the bad news when the cards were turned up, and his pocket kings remained second-best through the 7♦J♥6♦5♥9♠ runout. The left Wang's aces in the lead, and Petsos exited the tournament area.
Farhad Mohajerani opened to 5,000 before Hongbo Ju slid out a three-bet to 12,000. Abishek Krishnan then moved all in, and Mohajerani folded. Ju made the quick call, and the cards were turned up.
Abishek Krishnan: 7♣7♦
Hongbo Ju: A♣K♣
Ju found immediate help on the Q♣K♠J♥8♣8♠ runout, finishing with the superior two pair to send Krishnan to the rail.
On a completed board of K♣J♦4♠6♥8♠, Samuel Cheng checked and Celina Lin bet 30,000. Cheng then pushed forward a stack of green T-25,000 chips and Lin leaned back into the seat before studying the board. She spread forward her four time bank cards and used two of them before calling.
Cheng tabled the 6♠6♦ for a set of sixes and Lin mucked. Another player pointed out she should have shown and the player instantly added "I don't want to know" before putting her on pocket fours.
"I would have called much faster," Lin replied before she headed out.
On a flop of 8♠7♣4♣, Phat Nguyen check-raised from 5,000 to 17,000 and then called all-in when Qibo Fang pushed with the covering stack.
Phat Nguyen: 10♥9♥
Qibo Fang: 8♣8♦
The A♦ turn was a blank and so was the 2♥ river to knock out Nguyen.
Tambet Nugin was all in from the cutoff, at risk against Andrew Hawes on the button.
Tambet Nugin: 10♠10♥
Andrew Hawes: K♠K♦
Nugin found a set of tens on the 10♦8♣4♦ flop, and the A♠ turn left him on the verge of an unlikely double. Hawes then hit the K♣ river, making a better set to score the knockout.
Adrian DiGirolamo had re-entered and then got his chips into the middle for 57,500 with the best of it against Amir Minagar in the following showdown.
Adrian DiGirolamo: K♦K♠
Amir Minagar: 9♠9♥
The superior pair remained ahead on the J♠7♠2♥ flop and J♣ turn, but the 9♣ on the river was the fatal blow to DiGirolamo's stack.
Halil Bozdugan moved all in on the button after the J♦7♣2♣ flop, and Rana Bose called in the small blind. Nektarios Dimitrakis also called in middle position, and Bose checked again on the 10♣ turn.
Dimitrakis announced all in for 81,100, and Bose stuck in the call.
Halil Bozdugan: J♥8♠
Nektarios Dimitrakis: A♣8♣
Rana Bose: A♥K♣
Dimitrakis tabled his flush, and held through the 2♦ river to win both pots while sending Bozdugan to the rail.
