Around 500,000 was in the middle on a flop of 9♦8♥2♠, and Solano Barreto was facing a bet of 300,000 from his opponent.
After a bit of thought, Barreto jammed with the covering stack, earning a snap-fold.
Hermes Prencipe opened to 160,000, and was met with a three-bet to 530,000 from Adrien Burgniard.
Action back to Prencipe, who four-bet jammed with the covering stack. Burgniard, playing around 2,400,000 behind, looked a bit frustrated but quickly open-folded A♣10♦.
Prencipe obliged his opponent and showed A♦A♠.
Jeremy Chemarin opened to 200,000 under the gun, and Alexis Tremblay defended the big blind.
On the Q♥10♥7♥ flop, Tremblay check-called in the face of a bet of 100,000 from Chemarin.
The 3♥ turn was quickly checked to the 10♦ river, where Tremlay led out with a bet of 175,000.
Chemarin raised to 575,000, and after a bit of thought, Tremblay made the call.
Chemarin showed A♣K♠ for ace-king high, and Tremblay had found the call on a rough board with Q♦J♠.

Life Outside Poker is a podcast for PokerNews hosted by Connor Richards that seeks to pull back the curtain on poker players and allow viewers and listeners to get to know them on a personal level.
In the 34th episode, Connor talks with WSOP free-to-play app ambassador Sam Abernathy about growing up in Georgia, studying design, the similarities between gymnastics and poker, finishing third in the 2016 Aussie Millions Main Event, and a notorious slow roll she suffered in that event.
Abernathy also talks about first getting into poker through the WSOP Play app before becoming an ambassador years later, motherhood and being married to fellow poker player Lautaro Guerra, who finished 15th in this year's WSOP Main Event for $450,000.
The players have been sent on a 60-minute dinner break, with play due to resume at approximately 8:42 p.m. local time.
