Level 13 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Action folded to Jared Bleznick in the cutoff, and he raised all in for 315,000. It then folded to the small blind Juan Pardo who three-bet all in for his stack of 1,700,000, and Saya Ono in the big called her stack of 685,000.

Jared Bleznick: Q♥9♠ All in
Saya Ono: K♥J♦ All in
Juan Pardo: A♠K♣

Pardo had Big Slick looking to score a double knockout, but once the board ran out 3♦4♠2♣9♣7♣ it was Bleznick with the best hand, taking the main pot with his pair of nines to triple up. Pardo took the smaller side pot with his ace-king high, eliminating Ono.

Juan Pardo	1,830,000 670,000	670,000
Jared Bleznick	985,000 1,550,000	1,550,000

Daniel Dvoress was all in from the big blind against Brandon Steven on the button.

Daniel Dvoress: 10♦10♣ All in
Brandon Steven: A♣7♦

The flop landed K♥10♠8♥ to have Steven drawing nearly dead before the board finished out 3♠Q♦. Steven was left on fumes but received a small triple as his A♣2♦ held up against the K♠3♣ of Stephen Chidwick. However, the VIP was out a few hands later.

Level 12 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Poker's favorite vlogger is no more. Kayhan Mokri opened to 65,000 in middle position and there was a call in between before Daniel Negreanu three-bet to 225,000 in the big blind.

Mokri four-bet all in and Negreanu pulled out his selfie stick before announcing "Sometimes you gotta gamble," and calling.

Daniel Negreanu: A♣K♣ All in
Kayhan Mokri: K♠K♦

Negreanu was drawing to just an ace and a tablemate told him one of his outs was dead. The board then ran out 4♠10♣5♦7♦J♠ to end the Poker Hall of Famer's run at an eighth bracelet.

Level 11 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Ben Heath opened in middle position and Isaac Haxton called in the cutoff before Monika Zukowicz three-bet jammed a stack of about 505,000 in the small blind.

Aleksejs Ponakovs then four-bet shoved a stack of around 1,600,000 in the big blind. Heath folded and Haxton used a time extension before folding.

Monika Zukowicz: 8♣8♦ All in
Aleksejs Ponakovs: A♠K♥

"I almost want to close my eyes," Zukowicz said as she flipped in the biggest spot of her career. Unfortunately for the streamer, the flop landed K♦3♣7♦ to give Ponakovs a big lead as the board finished out A♥3♦ to mark Zukowicz' elimination.

Level 11 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Action folded to Michael Moncek on the button with Q♠Q♣, and he raised to 60,000. He was called by Phil Ivey in the big blind with Q♥4♠.

After the 9♥6♠4♥ flop, Ivey check-called a bet of 55,000.

The turn brought the 3♦ and Ivey again check-called a bet from Moncek, this time for 130,000.

After the 6♥ on the river, Ivey checked to Moncek who bet to put Ivey all in for his stack of 255,000. After using multiple time banks, Ivey elected to make the call. He was shown the pocket queens of Moncek and Ivey was sent to the rail early on Day 2.
