With only 45 players remaining in the field the players have been reduced to the final five tables.
Sameer Al Janedi seemed to have gotten low on chips and pushed all in from second position for around 14,000 after the first position player limped in. The table folded around to Men Nguyen in middle position and he made the call. The rest of the table folded back to the initial limper who moved all in for around 35,000 more. Nguyen was visible displeased and folded 
face up.
Al Janedi: 
Opponent: 
The board came 
and Al Janedi was awarded his triple up. Nguyen missed out and would have had the best hand, sling-shotting himself to the top of the counts.
