Joey Weissman was already all in preflop form the small blind against Adrian Mateos, who had Weissman covered in the big blind.
Joey Weissman: K♦Q♦
Adrian Mateos: J♠J♥
The 6♣K♥7♥ flop vaulted Weissman into the lead with a pair of kings and the 4♠ turn kept him in the lead.
However, the J♣ river gave Mateos a winning set to eliminate Weissman in dramatic fashion.
Action picked up on the river in a hand between Chance Kornuth and Eric Wasserson.
With about 400,000 in the pot and the board reading 2♠8♥6♣9♣K♦, Kornuth bet 200,000 and Wasserson moved all-in for 1,025,000 total.
Kornuth thought about his decision for a moment, before ultimately arriving at a fold.
Picking up the action partway through the hand, Seth Davies in the small blind and Michael Moncek in the big blind were all in with nearly identical stacks.
Seth Davies: 10♥10♦
Michael Moncek: A♣K♣
It was a flip with enormous equity implications for both players. The 5♥9♠A♠ flop immediately vaulted Moncek into the lead while the 4♠ turn left Davies needing a miracle to survive. A miracle did come on the 10♠ river to give Davies a massive double to leave Moncek with dust.
Seth Davies opened to 80,000 from the hijack and Andrew Pacheco called on the button. Chance Kornuth then shoved all in for around 700,000 from the big blind, which got two quick folds from his opponents.
On a board of A♠J♠Q♦K♠9♠, Viktor Blom had fired a river bet of 420,000 into Samuel Ju. It took a while for Ju to make a decision but eventually he decided to call, and was shown some bad news.
Blom flipped K♣Q♠ for the nut flush, and Ju could only muck his hand.
Start of day chipleader Masashi Oya was unable to replicate his dominating performance from Day 1 and found himself all in for his last 585,000 against Martin Kabrhel. Michael Moncek was also all in, though only for 25,000.
Michael Moncek: 10♣9♥
Masashi Oya: A♦K♣
Martin Kabrhel: A♠Q♥
Oya had Kabrhel dominated, that is until the flop came 8♥6♠Q♣. Nothing changed for Oya on either the J♦ turn or 3♠ river, though Moncek did make a straight to more than triple up. Despite this, Moncek joined Oya to the rail a few hands later.
Samuel Ju and Roman Hrabec got it all-in preflop, with Hrabec at risk.
Roman Hrabec: A♠J♦
Samuel Ju: A♣K♠
Hrabec pulled ahead on the 7♦6♠J♠ flop, pairing his jack, but the K♦ turn put Ju back in the lead, with a pair of kings. The river brought the 3♣, and Hrabec was sent to the rail.
Chris Brewer opened from middle position to 80,000 and Brandon Wilson three-bet to 180,000 from the hijack. Sergio Aido then cold four-bet to 385,000 from the cutoff, and Brewer made the fold. Wilson then shoved all in for around 850,000, and Aido snap-called.
Brandon Wilson: K♣K♥
Sergio Aido: A♥A♣
The board brought no surprises as the runout of 10♥3♦3♥5♦8♣ meant Wilson was eliminated.
With 29 players remaining and 27 getting paid, the tournament director has announced that hand for hand play will start.
