Yilu Yuan moved all in for 420,000 from early position and Thiago Crema called next to act. Action folded around to Pei Li on the button, and he announced a reshove for his last 1,520,000. Crema spent several minutes in the tank before he called, having Li barely covered.

Yilu Yuan: 9♦9♥
Pei Li: K♣K♠
Thiago Crema: J♠J♣

Li had woken up with kings and moved further in front on the K♦5♦2♥ flop with top set. The Q♠ turn left both opponents drawing dead, and he secured the massive pot following the Q♣ river. Yuan was eliminated, while Crema handed over most of his stack.

Jinwoo Kim opened to 65,000 and Alexander Villa defended from the big blind.

Both players checked the K♦9♦3♣ flop leading to the A♦ turn. Villa bet 125,000 and received a call from Kim.

On the 8♠ river Villa bet again, this time for 350,000 which was enough to force a fold from Kim.

Chance Kornuth raised to 55,000 from early position and Jeremy Becker shoved all in for 740,000 from middle position.

The action folded back to Kornuth and he instantly put in the call with the covering stack.

Jeremy Becker: 9♣9♥
Chance Kornuth: A♠K♥

Becker had a slight lead with his pair of nines, and increased it when he flopped an open-ended straight draw on 10♠8♣7♥. The turn of J♥ made him his straight and Kornuth did not rebink Broadway when the J♠ paired the board on the river.

Becker doubled up and Kornuth finally forfeited some chips on Day 5.

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Heads-up on a flop of 2♦Q♦8♣, Ronald Cleaver bet 75,000 from the cutoff before Riley Dieckhoff shoved all in for around 400,000 in the small blind. Cleaver called to put him at risk.

Riley Dieckhoff: Q♣J♣
Ronald Cleaver: A♦A♥

Dieckhoff had flopped top pair but walked right into Cleaver's aces and was at serious risk of his Main Event coming to an end. The 10♣ turn gave him a flush draw, but he missed the K♠ river.

"You had to give me a pair," Dieckhoff said before collecting his payout slip.
