The action was picked up on the flop of 6♥9♣4♠ as Josh Arieh bet 8,000 from the big blind and Bryan Alencar made the call. Chet Sickle raised to 43,000, Arieh folded and Alencar was all in for less.
Bryan Alencar: A♣J♥5♣3♥
Chet Sickle: 9♦9♥7♣8♦
Sickle flopped top set and looked to send Alencar packing. The chips were in the middle and Alencar needed a deuce or a seven to make a straight.
The 7♦ on the river was a saving grace for Alencar giving him a straight over Sickle's set of nines. Alencar doubled up to over 70,000.

Action began when Una Seo raised to 15,000 before Sven Rahmsdorf put in enough chips to force Seo all in for 30,500 total.
Una Seo: A♦A♥8♥10♦
Sven Rahmsdorf: K♦K♠Q♥6♠
Seo held the lead heading into the runout, but the flop of Q♣Q♦J♠ changed that as Rahmsdorf floped trip queens. The 7♠ turn and 10♥ river was not enough to flip the script eliminating Seo from the tournament.

Justin Jones moved all in from late position for 30,000 and the action folded to Daniele Nestola said "I'll give you action" and made the call.
Justin Jones: A♣5♣K♠A♥
Daniele Nestola: Q♣10♣8♥9♠
"I'll trade hands with you if you want" Jones commented before the board was revealed.
On a flop of 8♣J♣2♥ Jones said again, "You sure you don't wanna trade hands?" as Nestola flopped an gut-shot straight flush draw.
The turn brought a 7♥ giving Nestola a straight and the lead for the time being.
Luck prevailed for Jones as he evaded the possible straight flush with the 2♣ hitting the felt, giving Jones the nut flush over Nestola's queen-high flush. "I told you we could have switched hands" Jones commented as Nestola said "Nice Hand" while only risking a small portion of his stack.
