Karim Rebei raised it up from the hijack and Kamal Bittar defended from the big blind. The flop came and Bittar check-called a bet of 750,000 from Rebei.
The turn brought the and both players checked to the on the river. Bittar led out with a small bet of 600,000 and Rebei quickly called. Bittar showed for a full house and raked in the pot.

George Turner:
Vadim Rozin:
Turner was pipped by Rozin's superior kicker and would need to come from behind to survive. The flop changed little but the turn did give Turner a gutshot. It did not come in on the river, ending the British player's deep run late on Day 6.
Karim Rebei opened to 675,000 from under the gun and Antoine Labat three-bet to roughly 1,800,000 in the small blind. Action came back to Rebei who moved all in, and after confirming the action, Labat quickly called all in for his stack of approximately 7,000,000.
Antoine Labat:
Karim Rebei:
Labat was in great shape with the best starting hand in poker, although the flop provided a sweat. Labat walked around near the table as he anxiously awaited the next card, and the dealer put the onto the felt as the table reacted in disbelief at the sight of the devastating turn card, while Labat showed little reaction.
The river failed to bring an ace, and the Frenchman's deep run had come to an end in brutal fashion. The 2018 Main Event ninth-place finisher made his way to the payout desk following the disappointing result, as he fell just a bit short of another prestigious Main Event final table.
Damian Salas got his last 3,700,000 in the middle blind versus blind against Tzur Levy.
Damian Salas:

The river came the and Levy continued for 2,850,000. Farnes sat motionless for a moment before announcing a raise to 8,200,000.
Levy considered the decision for about a minute before sticking in a call. "Quads," Farnes said as he turned over , taking the pot and increasing his stack to nearly 40,000,000.
After Philippe Souki had won a pot off Cameron Blazevich to take over the lead on their table, the next hand featured a preflop all-in contest. The action folded to Adam Demersseman in the small blind and he pushed all-in for 4,825,000.
Mayank Madan was sent into the tank and contemplated his option carefully, which led Demersseman to whisper a "it's a good one, eh?" to his neighbour.
Only a few seconds later, the call followed and the cards were turned over.
Adam Demersseman:
Mayank Madan:
The board missed both players and Demersseman doubled to pull ahead of Madan.
Nathanael Kogel raised to 750,000 from middle position and Matthew Shepsky shoved his last 4,080,000 from the small blind. The big blind got out of the way and Kogel called to put Shepsky at risk.
