Brooks Floyd moved all in preflop and was called by Yujian Eugen Zhou to put him at risk of elimination.
Brooks Floyd: Q♦J♣
Yujian Eugen Zhou: A♠6♦
"Let's see some people!" Floyd's rail yells from behind him, and sure enough, a queen appears on the flop of Q♣6♥4♣ to put him in the lead. Zhou could still hit an ace or a six, but the runout of 5♦3♥ does neither and Floyd is pushed the pot for the double.

After a preflop betting war, Martin Alcaide and Yujian Eugen Zhou got all of their chips into the middle, with Alcaide covering.
Yujian Eugen Zhou: J♦10♠
Martin Alcaide: A♦A♠
"That's his hand, he's won every all in with jack-ten," someone said from the rail, and the flop of 3♥K♣9♦ was a sweat as Zhou picked up a gutshot straight draw. Sure enough, he drilled the Q♥ right on the turn to give him the nut straight. Alcaide and the rest of the onlookers couldn't believe their eyes as he was left drawing dead. The board completed with the 5♣ and Zhou was pushed the massive pot to once again rocket to the top of the counts.

After an open to 16,000,000 by Yujian Eugen Zhou, Ricky Andino moved all in and Martin Alcaide quickly shoved behind him for more. After thinking about it for a good while, Zhou decided to let it go and the two players tabled their cards.
Ricky Andino: K♠Q♦
Martin Alcaide: A♠Q♠
Andino would need a lot of help to stay alive, bu the runout of 6♠8♦3♥9♥10♣ failed to do so and he was sent to the payout desk in in fifth place.

Yujian Eugen Zhou rasied to 16,000,000 from the button and Brooks Floyd defended in the big blind.
The 3♠6♠4♦ flop saw Floyd play out of flow, leading for 12,000,000. Zhou moved all in almost instantly and Floyd called off for his tournament life.
Brooks Floyd: 6♦5♣
Yujian Eugen Zhou: A♥6♥
Floyd was out-kicked but had an open-ended straight draw for insurance. The 9♣ turn changed nothing but the 2♣ river completed Floyd's straight to double him up.
"You played the river perfectly," joked one member of Floyd's rail as they celebrated together.

Yujian Eugen Zhou moved all in preflop and Brooks Floyd thought about it for a good twenty seconds before he decided to fold, but then Joel Vanetten snap-called right behind him, putting himself at risk.
Joel Vanetten: A♥K♠
Yujian Eugen Zhou: Q♦10♦
Vanetten was in the lead going into this battle, and a king appeared in the window, but it came out K♥Q♣10♣ to give Zhou the lead with two pair. Vanetten could still hit an ace or a jack to win, but the runout of 7♠Q♥ only improved Zhou to a full house to take the pot to eliminate Vanetten in fourth place.
