Patrick Tardif: A♣A♠
Hector Grangel: K♣K♦
The 8♦7♦5♦ flop was a mighty sweat for the Canadian online streamer but he held onto the lead thanks to the Q♣ turn and 9♥ river.
"I played that hand really good, I am the greatest player in the field," Tardif joked with a big smile on the face.
With 11,000 in the middle to the 10♠8♠3♣6♠K♦ river, Aurel Cotos checked out of the big blind. Grant Ellis bet 7,000 only for Cotos to then jam for 32,000 total.
Ellis asked for an exact count but ultimately ended up folding.
Daniyar Aubakirov faced an open raise to 2,000 and three-bet, announcing the amount and splashing in two yellow T-5,000 chips. There was a cold four-bet to 12,200 behind to force out the initial raiser. Aubakirov wasted little time before moving all-in and won the pot uncontested.
The Kazakh poker pro moved back to the starting stack, well behind table neighbour Alex Livingston who has heaps.
Darko Svesko opened in middle position to 1,700 before the action folded to Game of Gold Star David Williams in the big blind who defended.
The A♦4♥10♣ flop landed and Williams check-called a 1,500 bet from Svesko before the 3♥ rolled off on the turn.
The action checked to Svesko again and after a short tank he went with another bet of 3,600. Williams called again.
The Q♠ hit the river and the action checked through. Williams tabled A♣8♥ and Svesko mucked.
