Hand #86: Yueqi Zhu made it 900,000 under the gun and took it down.

Hand #87: Joe Cada made it 900,000 second to act and got action from Michael Dyer on his left and Hari Bercovici in the small blind. The flop came {4-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{a-Clubs} and Bercovici shoved into the other players from the small blind. It was 7.2 million and Cada quickly folded. Dyer needed a moment longer but mucked as well.

Hand #88: Cada opened for 900,000 again and Alex Lynskey called a couple of seats over. Cada checked when the flop came {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{a-Spades}. Lynskey checked back and they saw a {6-Hearts} turn. The river was a {10-Diamonds} after two more checks. Check-check again and {10-Spades}{9-Spades} won it against {7-}{7-}, with the pot going Lynskey's way.

Hand #89: Dyer opened for a min-raise and Cada defended his big blind. Dyer's continuation-bet of 725,000 won it on the {7-Hearts}{4-Spades}{4-Hearts} flop.

Hand #90: Zhu opened for 900,000 in the cutoff and Dyer defended his big blind. Dyer came out betting with 850,000 on the {5-Spades}{6-Hearts}{8-Hearts} flop. Zhu called and the {j-Diamonds} hit. Dyer checked this time and faced a bet of 1.2 million. Dyer gave it up.

Hand #91: Dyer completed the blind and Lynskey checked. The flop came {9-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{10-Spades} and Dyer bet out 425,000. Lynskey stuck around and the {k-Clubs} hit. Dyer bet 1,150,000 and Lynskey continued to the {j-Spades} river. Dyer fired a final shell of 2.6 million. Lynskey took some thinking time and called.

Dyer opened {4-Clubs}{3-Hearts} for a bluff and Lynskey took it down with {10-Hearts}{8-Clubs} for just tens.
