Bryan Kim and Morten Klein played out a pot that got to showdown on the 7♠10♥Q♦4♠4♥ board.
Kim flipped over Q♣2♦ and Klein had the same hand with Q♠2♥ which meant they both chopped the pot.
Phil Ivey opened to 22,000 from the cutoff and was called by both Isaac Haxton in the small blind as well as Andrew Lichtenberger in the big blind.
Haxton checked on the 6♠8♦4♦ flop, prompting Lichtenberger to bet 18,000. Ivey flatted while Haxton folded to send action heads-up to the turn.
The turn came A♥. Lichtenberger slowed down, checking to Ivey, who tossed out 75,000. Lichtenberger's cards hit the muck almost instantly as Ivey added more chips to his already large stack.
With 60,000 chips in the pot on a board of 10♦A♦7♠, Zhiyuan Xu bet 12,000, and Tobias Schwecht called.
On the K♣ turn, Xu fired a second barrel of 42,000, and Schwecht folded.
David Peters opened in middle position before Jared Bleznick three-bet to 90,000 from the small blind. Peters called.
When the 9♥8♥7♠ flop hit the felt, Bleznick checked to Peters as he dropped a bet of 60,000 across the line. Bleznick thought about it for a few moments before surrendering the pot as his cards hit the muck.
Daniel Negreanu limped in from the small blind and Seth Davies checked the big blind.
Both players decided to check all the way to showdown on the K♣3♣8♥4♥7♠ board and Davies took it down holding K♦2♠ for a flopped pair of kings.
Alex Kulev opened to 21,000 on the button with Quan Zhou defending his big blind to send action heads-up to the flop.
Zhou check-called a bet of 29,000 from Kulev on the 10♣2♣J♦ flop.
Kulev bet again after Zhou checked to him on the 5♦ turn, this time sizing up to a hefty 125,000. The second barrel was sufficient to score the pot as Zhou folded.
Dimitar Danchev opened 21,000 in early position and Chance Kornuth called in the cutoff before Francisco Benitez three-bet 90,000 out of the big blind. Danchev responded with a four-bet jam of 335,000, forcing Kornuth out of the pot and Benitez instantly called.
Dimitar Danchev: A♦Q♠ 
Francisco Benitez: A♥K♦
Danchev was dominated as the dealer put out the K♣Q♥3♣ flop, pairing both players. The Q♦ turn gave Danchev trip queens to take the lead though and the 7♣ river changed nothing.
Nick Schulman shoved all in for around 120,000 from early position and got a call from the player in the hijack. Francisco Benitez then shipped all in from the cutoff, which got the rest of the table to fold.
Nick Schulman: A♣Q♣
Francisco Benitez: J♠J♦
Schulman shot into the lead on the 7♠A♠4♣ flop and was the favorite to double up, however, backdoor spades gave Benitez a flush as the runout of 9♠5♠ sent Schulman to the rail.
