Malo Latinois raised to 1,000,000 in the cutoff and Charles Russell called on the button, as did big blind Diogo Coelho.
The flop came J♣4♦2♦ and Coelho and Latinois checked to Russell who bet 1,000,000. Only Coelho called.
The 7♣ fell on the turn and Russell bet 3,000,000. Coelho again called to see the 3♠ river, where Russell bet another 5,500,000.
Coelho tanked for a minute before folding as Russell took down another big pot.
Yake Wu raised to 1,000,000 in the cutoff and Joe Serock jammed all in from the small blind.
After a lengthy count, Serock's stack was determined to consist of 17,250,000 chips.
Wu tanked for a little while longer before releasing his cards and shipping the pot to Serok.
Malo Latinois raised to 1,000,000 on the button before Charles Russell three-bet to 3,500,000 in the small blind. Latinois moved all in and Russell called for 13,950,000.
Charles Russell: J♠J♦ 
Malo Latinois: K♣10♣
Russell was ahead with his jacks but was forced to sweat out the rest of the board as the 9♣5♣2♥ flop gave Latinois a flush draw. The A♠ turn was safe for Russell, while the 6♠ fell on the river and Russell survived to earn a double up.
Andres Gonzalez raised to 1,000,000 and Yake Wu called on the button, as did Joe Serock in the big blind. The J♦6♥2♥ flop was checked to Wu and he bet 1,500,000, only Serock called.
There was no further action on the 9♣ turn and 5♥ river as Wu checked behind both times.
"Queen jack," Serock announced and tabled the Q♥J♠, which was good enough to win the pot.
