Vadim Shlez opened to 50,000 and got called by Viet Vo next to him, as well as Champie Douglas and Wiliam Davies in the blinds.
The flop 7♠9♦6♠ was checked to Davies who bet 150,000. Shlez folded, Vo called, and Douglas tanked for a minute before shoving for almost 600,000, with only 25,000 chips left.
After some thinking, both Davies and Vo let it go.
In a blind versus blind situation, Saulo Sabioni raised to 60,000 and Abdul Almagableh call.
The flop was 7♦4♠Q♦ and Almagableh check-called 40,000. The 5♥ hit the turn and this time, Sabioni checked. Almagableh bet 125,000, enough to win the hand.
Tyler Hirschfeld raised from the cutoff to 55,000 and Zurvan Tumboli moved all in for his last 200,000 in the small blind. Hirschfeld called.
Zurvan Tumboli: K♥10♥
Tyler Hirschfeld: 4♥4♠
The board came with some sweat with Q♠3♥6♥, and while Tumboli had quite a few outs heading to the turn and river, the cards came 6♣ and 9♦ to knock him out of the tournament.
Level: 23
Blinds: 15,000/30,000
Ante: 30,000
All the chips were already in the middle between Colin York, at risk for his last 200,000, and Poorya Nazari who had him covered.
Colin York: K♣K♦
Poorya Nazari: A♣9♣
The best hand remained ahead during the 2♣8♦4♣K♠Q♥ rundown for York to double up.
Kunal Patni moved all in for about 300,000 from the cutoff, Safwane Bahri three-bet to 700,000 on the button, and Akihiro Konishi called all in for 425,000 from the big blind.
Kunal Patni: A♦10♣
Akihiro Konisha: K♥K♣
Safwane Bahri: A♠J♦
The board ran out A♥J♣2♠6♣6♥ — Bahri's kicker came into play to take out two birds with one stone.
Ryan Smith open-shoved around 360,000 and Colin York reshoved from the small blind. The big blind folded and they tabled their cards:
Ryan Smith: A♣J♠
Colin York: A♥K♥
Smith didn't find any help during the 4♦5♥10♣9♥K♦ rundown and made his way to the payout desk while York added the chips to his stack.
Danny Nguyen raised all in from the button for about 220,000 and Brandon Schwartz from the big blind called.
Danny Nguyen: 8♠8♥
Brandon Schwartz: A♦4♦
The board came out 3♠5♣2♠ and Schwartz was in the lead with the straight and Nguyen was packing up his bag. The turn came the J♠ and the river was the 5♠. Nguyen started to walk away and was called back by the other players as he had hit the flush.
Elsewhere Seth Fischer busted the tournament.
