Stephen Winters limped under the gun. The player seated next to him then raised to 2,500,000. Kyle Hoffner called from the small blind before Winters limp-raised all in for 22,000,000. He got two folds from his opponents and was kind to show A♠A♦ as he took down the pot.

Sung Kim moved all in for his remaining 7,400,000 and was called by a late-position player, who covered Kim. The blinds got out of the way.
Sung Kim: 10♥10♣ 
Opponent: 9♣9♠
Kim was ahead and the situation didn’t change when the dealer fanned 3♥5♦2♠ on the flop. The 8♣ on the turn kept Kim in the lead and he completed a double up when J♠ appeared on the turn.

On a board of J♥7♠7♥A♣Q♣ John Gorsuch had checked. Ediberto Pilotin then bet 5,300,000. After some thought, Gorsuch elected to fold his hand. Pilotin was kind enough to show A♥A♦ for a full house.

Wade Ostrum moved all in out of the cutoff for his remaining chips and action folded to James Morgan, who was in the small blind and had Ostrum covered.
After a few moments, Morgan made the call to put Ostrum at risk.
Wade Ostrum: A♥5♦
James Morgan: 6♠6♥
The dealer fanned J♦A♣6♣ on the board, giving Ostrum a pair of aces, but were well behind Morgan’s set of sixes.
The J♣ appeared on the turn, improving Morgan’s hand to a full house. Ostrum needed an ace or a jack on the river for a bigger full house, but the Q♥ appeared to send Ostrum out of the tournament.

Brian Smith shoved from under the gun for 4,525,000. Steve Foutty three-bet to 10,000,000 on the button and Men Nguyen four-bet all in for 25,250,000.
"How much is it?" asked Foutty.
"I don't care," replied Nguyen, as the dealer counted his chips.
Eventually Foutty called.
Brian Smith: J♠5♠
Men Nguyen: A♦K♦
Steve Foutty: A♥K♥
The 10♥6♣4♠ changed nothing, with the 2♥ giving Foutty a flush draw and the chance to eliminate two players.
The river 5♣ bricked that draw, but improved Smith to a pair and he tripled up.
"Good turn card," remarked Foutty.
"It's the Gladiator!" said Smith. "Are you not entertained?!"
