When preflop action folded to Mark Eddleman on the button, he shoved all in. Luigi Curcio then shoved behind as well, which got a fold from the player in the big blind. The players tabled their hands and Curcio was ahead preflop, which was short-lived after the dealer spread the 
flop.
Mark Eddleman:
Luigi Curcio: 
The turn secured the double-up for Eddleman, which left a meaningless to fall on the river. Curcio, who was left with less than one big blind after the hand, was eliminated from the tournament two hands later.

After a couple of preflop raises, Ivan Uzunov and Noam Freedman got all of their chips in the middle with Freedman being the player at risk for a little under 2,000,000 chips. As expected, two big hands were tabled and it was a coin flip.
Ivan Uzunov:
Noam Freedman:
The flop came 
and Freedman picked up a straight draw to go with his two over cards. The on the turn eliminated his straight possibility but it also gave him some counterfeit outs. However, the on the river bricked off and Uzunov held on to win a monster pot.
