Fabio Miranda opened to 160,000 from early position and only Raj Vohra made the call in the big blind.

Betito Fills Up to Bust Vieth

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Vitor Bengozi raised to 160,000 from early position and Liran Betito called before Mason Vieth, in middle position, moved all in for 1,265,000. Bengozi folded, but Betito called to put Vieth at risk.

Mason Vieth: 55
Liran Betito: JJ

Betito slammed down his jacks upon seeing Vieth's hand as Vieth was already standing up with his backpack on awaiting the 4J4 flop.

"Opa! Full house," Betito yelled out. Vieth watched the 8 and 8 fall on the turn and river, the last two cards he would see in the Main Event before he was sent to the rail.

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Juan Maceiras Lapido
Juan Maceiras Lapido

A huge pile of chips were spotted being passed to Juan Maceiras Lapido at the expense of Aaron Speer.

Ludovic Geilich recapped the 10,000,000 chip pot to PokerNews.

Speer opened to 180,000 before Lapido made it 600,000 from the blinds. Speer four-bet to 1,500,000 and called off his 5,000,000 stack when Lapido moved all in as the slightly bigger stack.

Aaron Speer: AKx
Juan Maceiras Lapido: QxQx

The 986 flop kept the queens ahead, while the 9 turn gave Speer a flush draw to go along with his overcards. The 7 river was a brick and Lapido collected the pot after it was confirmed he covered Speer.

Stein Gets Frisky on the Button

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

The action folded to Sam Stein on the button who made it 175,000 to go. Bryan Obregon three-bet to 450,000 in the big blind and Stein four-bet to 1,225,000. Obregon thought for over a minute and then just opted to call.

The flop came Q76 and Obregon check-called a bet of 750,000 from Stein. The turn was the J and both players checked to the 8 on the river. Obregon checked once more and Stein slid out a bet of 1,950,000. Obregon flicked in a chip to call and Stein tabled 87 for two pair to claim the pot.

Hunter Frey opened to 175,000 in middle position and Harsheel Kothari called from the hijack before Christian Harder also came along from the big blind.

The flop of 895 checked through and Harder and Frey checked again on the 5 turn. Kothari bet 300,000 and Harder folded while Frey called.

Frey checked again on the 9 river and Kothari sized up to 600,000. Frey called. Kothari showed AQ for ace-high as Frey also showed ace-high with A7 to chop up the pot.

Lazaro Navigates Three Way Pot

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Hunter Barnett opened to 160,000 from early position and was called by Rene Lazaro in the cutoff as well as Manh Nguyen in the big blind.

Nguyen checked following the A104 flop and Barnett continued for 225,000. Lazaro made the call while Nguyen chose to get out of the way.

The J turn saw Barnett slow down, checking to Lazaro who slid a minimum bet of 80,000 into the middle. Barnett thought for quite some time but ultimately decided he could not withstand the pressure of even that bet and mucked to send an early pot over to Lazaro.

Zachary Hall Jams Turn vs Yaroslav Ohulchanskyi

Yaroslav Ohulchanskyi bet 135,000 from under the gun on a flop of 46K before start-of-day chip leader Zachary Hall raised to 680,000 in the big blind.

Ohulchanskyi called and the 5 fell on the turn. Hall then announced he was all in.

"If you have ace-king you have to call," Hall told Ohulchanskyi, who had 1,700,000 remaining and tanked for a few minutes before sliding his cards into the muck as Hall increased his massive stack.

Liu Gets a Pot; Hawkins Has a Boogie

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Robert Coakley opened to 175,000 from early position and called when Ping Liu three-bet to 440,000 from the button.

As the hand was talking place, Maurice Hawkins left his chair to have a little dance around the table as he seemed to be enjoying the music pumping through his headphones.

As the shapes were being cut away from the table, the dealer fanned the 872 flop, which Coakley checked. Liu fired out 425,000 and took down the pot uncontested.

Chan Gets Dunst, Luther Off Big Hands

Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Tony Dunst raised to 175,000 from under the gun with AK before Nikita Luther three-bet to 525,000 in middle position holding AQ. Henry Chan, in the hijack, also woke up with AK and pushed all in for 2,005,000.

Dunst quickly folded, but Luther went into the tank for several minutes. "Probably a flip," she said as she pondered the call.

Luther eventually decided to fold. "Too expensive," she added as Chan took the pot.
