Jimmy Gorham opened to 80,000 from early position. He was called by Malo Latinois to his left and Jingwei Guo who defended from the big blind.
All three of them checked the 9♥3♥Q♥ leading to the 4♦ where Guo bet 150,000. Gorham was the only one to call.
The 9♣ completed the board and Guo checked. Gorham then led out for 240,000 and he made Guo fold.
Joerg Winterhoff was all in for 750,000 from the hijack and Robert Renaud called from the cutoff.
Joerg Winterhoff: 8♥8♣
Robert Renaud: A♦Q♥
Winterhoff was looking to stay ahead but the 2♦10♥Q♦ gave the lead to Renaud.
The 6♦ and 3♠ sealed Winterhoff's bust and Renaud gained some more chips.
Marc Wolpert opened to 80,000 from under the gun, with action folding to Boris Angelov on the button. He then made it 350,000 before the blinds got out of the way. Wolpert four-bet to 725,000 and was called.
The TV crew then gathered around the table as the pot swelled.
However, fireworks failed to ignite as Angelov folded to a bet of 350,000 on the A♦10♣8♣ flop.
"Sorry, nothing to see here," laughed Angelov as Wolpert chipped up over the four million mark.
Diogo Veiga had vanished with Neal Corcoran jumping back to his comfortable bigger stack.
One table over, Francisco Sanchez took advantage of the A♥K♥K♠8♦A♣ river when Randy Gattesco check-folded to his bet and flashed the 8♥8♠. As he collected the pot, Sanchez smirked and then exposed the 7♦7♠ for a successful bluff.
"Wait, what did he have?" Gattesco on the other side of the table asked and when he was told, shot out of the table with a loud "son of a bitch" as a joke, with the entire table bursting out in laughter.
While that hand was played out, Orson Young limped the small blind and called a raise to 140,000 by Jimmy Gorham in the big blind one table over. They checked the J♥6♠3♠ flop and Young led the 5♦ turn for 185,000, Gorham called.
Young also bet the 5♠ river for 425,000 and then tank-folded when Gorham raised it up to 1,400,000.
[Removed:496] and Marcelo Giordano were heads-up on a flop of 2♥Q♦J♣. Sopotnytskyi bet 175,000 from the big blind and Giordano called.
Both players checked on the 9♥ turn and Sopotnytskyi checked again after the 6♥ filled the river. Giordano took the initiative with a bet of 750,000 and Sopotnytskyi let his hand go after a bit of thought.
Niklas Astedt raised to 80,000 on the button and Alexandru Brumaru called in the big blind.
The flop came K♦10♦2♦ and Astedt bet 60,000. Brumaru called and the A♦ fell on the turn.
Astedt then bet 175,000 and Brumaru again called. The 9♣ fell on the river and Astedt fired out 450,000 this time.
Brumaru spent several minutes in the tank before calling as Astedt turned over A♥Q♦ for a flush to win the pot.
Mauro Jaurez opened to 80,000 from under the gun and was three-bet by James Calderaro from the next seat to 230,000. The action folded around to Joseph Carden in the big blind who made it 650,000, which Calderaro only called.
On a flop of 6♥10♠4♣, Carden continued for 325,000, and Calderaro called.
When the J♦ hit the turn, Carden shoved for around 1,700,000, which sent Calderaro deep into the tank. Several minutes passed and Calederaro still hadn't made a decision.
"What the F*** you got?" asked Calderaro in a joking manner.
Eventually, Calderaro made the fold by throwing his cards into the middle of the table.
"Queens or kings?' asked Carden.
"Queens," replied Calderaro.
Nearly 2,000,000 was already in the middle as Valentin Oberhauser and Kevin Ordet went to the river on a board of 5♦6♣2♥5♥4♣.
Oberhauser then bet 1,000,000 from the button, sending Ordet deep into the tank. He considered the decision for several minutes before calling.
Oberhauser then turned over 6♠5♠ for a full house and Ordet mucked as Oberhauser took down the massive pot.
