As the action was picked, it appeared as Guillermo Rameriz raised to 32,000. Shawn Buchanan was all in before the flop for less and Yuta Iwasa had re-shoved and Rameriz folded.
Shawn Buchanan: J♥9♠
Yuta Iwas: 7♣7♠
A flop of 6♥9♦2♣ seemed to favor Buchanan but a 7♦ on the river spelled disaster for him as the river came the 6♣, Full house for Isawa. Buchanan was sent to the payout cage to collect as bad beats around the floor of the colossus were rampant.

Players were already heads up and on the river with a 3♦4♦4♠2♥2♣ board. The pot stood at 210,000.
Shekhar Deshpande bet 100,000 from the cutoff and Brandon Mueller raised to 230,000 from the button.
Deshpande took some time to think before making the fold.
Mueller scooped the pot and remarked, 'I have aces', before showing A♦A♠. The table talk continued into the next hand and Mueller questioned 'Nines?, Nines you call, Ace-Queen?'
