Ding Biao raised to 20,000 from early position, before Chris Hunichen three-bet to 48,000 on his direct left. It folded back to Biao who made the call.
The flop came 7♥4♠6♣ and Biao checked to Hunichen who fired out 50,000, and Biao raised to put Hunichen all in for 202,000, which he called.
Chris Hunichen: K♠Q♥ 
Ding Biao: A♦6♦
Biao flopped a pair, but the 6♥ on the turn gave him trips, leaving Hunichen drawing dead. The river was the 3♣ to officially eliminate Hunichen.

Yang Wang raised to 22,000 from the cutoff before Mike Watson three-bet to 60,000 from the button. Wang, the slightly bigger stack, moved all in. Watson, who started the hand with 349,000, called for his tournament life.
Mike Watson: Q♥Q♣
Yang Wang: A♦K♣
Wang immediately took the lead, paring his ace on the A♥5♥2♦ flop. The 3♠ turn brought in some chop outs, but Watson's run ended after the 8♠ river.

Ramin Hajiyev: A♣K♥
Alexander Tkatschew: A♠Q♠
Hajiyev had Tkatschew dominated, and when the board ran out 5♥7♦6♥10♠4♣ Hajiyev's ace-king was still best, giving him the double-up.

Stephen Chidwick opened to 20,000 from the button and called when Taylor von Kriegenbergh made it 65,000 from the small blind.
Von Kriegenbergh jammed for 155,000 on the 10♦7♦6♣ flop, and after using several time banks, Chidwick called.
Taylor von Kriegenbergh: JxJx
Stephen Chidwick: A♣9♣
Von Kriegenbergh looked poised for a double-up after the K♠ turn, but Chidwick made a straight on the 8♥ river to score an early bust out.
"Guess I can go to the beach after all," said Von Kriegenbergh as he exited the table.

Action folded to Thomas Eychenne in the small blind who limped in, and the big blind Ye Wang rasied to 30,000. Eychenne then three-bet all in for his stack of 250,000, and Wang snap-called.
Thomas Eychenne: 9♥9♣
Ye Wang: A♠A♦
It was a blind-on-blind cooler as Eychenne ran into Wang's aces, and when the board ran out 5♠6♣10♣8♠5♥ the aces of Wang were still best, eliminating Eychenne.

The payouts are locked in for the $100,000 Triton Main Event, and this year’s edition has blown past expectations.
A total of 237 entries were recorded, a massive jump of 55 more entries than last year’s 182-runner field. That surge pushed the prize pool to $23,700,000, making it one of the richest events of the entire WSOP Paradise schedule.
The top 36 players will walk away with a cash, with a min-cash worth $164,000 and everyone who reaches the final table guaranteed at least $495,000. The serious money lives up top, though, with the champion set to bank $4,750,000, while the runner-up will collect $3,160,000.
