Steven Jones got his stack of 795,000 in preflop with the A♣4♦ and he was a huge underdog against the A♦K♠ of Hilton Lourenco.
Both players paired their kicker on the K♥7♣4♥ flop and Jones pulled a rabbit out of the hat with the 4♣ turn. The A♠ river only further improved Jones to a full house and he left his opponent disgusted.
"I don't think you gonna be welcome in Brazil," Sam Stein joked towards Jones.
Christopher Trang opened to 50,000 from under the gun and Ryan Tosoc called from early position. Andrew Batey moved all in from the button for 540,000. Trang folded and Tosoc quickly made the call and mentioned that he had a big hand.
Andrew Batey: 8♦8♥
Ryan Tosoc: K♣K♠
The board ran out Q♦9♥A♥Q♣7♠ and Batey was sent to the rail while Tosoc added to his stack which is now approaching 6,000,000
Shortly after losing a massive pot to Ryan Brown, Bill Klein moved all in for his last 385,000 from under the gun and was looked up by Matthew Wantman in the cutoff.
Bill Klein: J♥9♥
Matthew Wantman: K♣K♦
Klein was in rough shape and would need to overcome a large equity deficit to survive. The 2♥2♣A♥ flop did give him a flush draw, one that came in immediately on the 3♥ turn. Needing to fade deuces and kings heading to the river, Klein was able to do just that with the 6♥ completing the board to hand the at-risk player a full double.
Mitchell Hynam moved all-in for 160,000 in the cutoff and he was called two ways by Linglin Zeng in the small blind and Christian Harder in the big blind.
The 8♥6♥5♦ flop saw Zeng check-fold and the showdown proceeded.
Mitchell Hynam: K♣J♣
Christian Harder: 6♠6♣
Hynam was drawing to running cards for a chop only and it was all over on the K♠ turn to make the 3♦ river a formality.
Drew Soik raised to 50,000 from middle position and received two callers before Robert Coakley, in the small blind, shoved all in. Soik called for his last 775,000 and the rest of the table got out of the way.
Drew Soik: A♥K♣
Robert Coakley: A♠J♠
Soik had Coakley dominated as the flop fell 3♠7♥8♣, leaving him in the lead. The 8♠ turn gave Coakley a flush draw, but he missed the 9♥ river as he handed over most of his stack to Soik.
Toby Lewis and Thomas Gabriel had arrived on the turn in a pot of 300,000. The board was spread A♠3♠6♥2♣ and Gabriel bet for 185,000 from middle position. Lews made the call from the button before the K♣ river completed the board.
Gabriel jammed all in, covering Lewis' 675,000 remaining chips. Lewis thought it over for a bit but eventually made the fold, forfeiting the pot to Gabriel.
Daniel Dzian opened to 55,000 from under the gun and Andrey Pateychuk called on his direct left.
Pateychuk called for 30,000 on the J♣3♦2♥ flop and then folded after Dzian sized up to 110,000 on the 8♦ turn.
Bill Klein opened to 55,000 from late position and was called by Stuart Taylor in the cutoff as well as Nicholas Rigby on the button. Ryan Brown then moved all in for 1,200,000 out of the small blind, getting calls from Klein with the covering stack as well as Taylor. Rigby, meanwhile, got out of the way.
Stuart Taylor: A♥A♣
Ryan Brown: A♦Q♣
Bill Klein: K♣K♠
Taylor, though the effective stack, was in a good spot to get a crucial triple up, that is until the flop came 8♥3♣K♦, vaulting Klein into the lead. The J♠ turn did give Brown a gutshot and he managed to complete his runner-runner straight after the 10♥ improved him to broadway to eliminate Taylor and leave Klein short.

Gabi Livshitz three-bet to 175,000 from middle position and Pei Li called under the gun.
The flop came Q♠7♣J♠ and Livshitz continued for 150,000. Li called as the 6♥ fell on the turn.
Livshitz then fired out 275,000 and Li spent a few moments counting out his stack before shoving all in for around 650,000. Livshitz snap-mucked to take a hit to his big stack.
