The hand began with a raise from Miguel Cardenas from early position to 50,000.
The table folded to Ryan Darby in the small blind, who elected to jam for 110,000.
Michael Coombs woke up with a hand in the big blind and called before Cardenas chose to get out of the way with a fold.
Ryan Darby: A♦Q♣
Michael Coombs: A♣K♥
Coombs had Darby in trouble with a better kicker. The board of 6♦4♦4♥A♠9♥ did not improve Darby, sending him home.

Mark Kawamoto opened for 60,000 and got a three-bet from John Divecha to 160,000 on the button. Claudio Elizalde in small blind went all-in which was enough to make Kawamoto fold. Divecha made the call.
Claudio Elizalde: A♦Q♣
John Divecha: K♠K♣
Elizalde seemed unfazed seeing Divecha's hand and instead took his phone out to record the outcome. The flop dropped 7♦10♥K♦ giving Divecha a set but gave Elizalde outs with a gutshot straight draw. Still hopeful, Elizalde said, "It's ok, the jack is coming, the jack is coming."
The 3♣ didn't change the situation but the moment the J♠ fell on the river completing his broadway straight, Elizalde went, "There it is." He apologized to Divecha as he scooped the pot for a double up.
On the very next hand, Yen-Tuan Chen shoved all-in and got called by Divecha, now in cutoff. The hands were tabled.
Yen-Tuan Chen: A♦10♦
John Divecha: K♣K♠
After seeing the hands, Divecha said, "Let them hold now." The board ran 7♦Q♦J♣5♣. Before the river was dealt, Divecha called out 5♥ which is exactly what dropped on the river. With the kings holding up Chen was sent to the rails.

Jeremy Geist raised from the cutoff to 50,000 and Tien Dang committed the last of his short-stack from the big blind. Geist happily called.
Tien Dang: 5♠3♠
Jeremy Geist: K♦K♣
Dang needed a lot of help from the dealer to crack Geist's Cowboys. But, the board ran out 4♣9♥J♣5♥J♦, keeping Geist ahead all the way, sending Dang out of the tournament.

Claudio Elizalde jammed from the cutoff for 305,000, resulting in a call from David Neiman on the button, putting Elizalde at risk for his tournament life.
Claudio Elizalde: Q♠Q♥
David Neiman: A♠8♠
The flop was a clean runout for Elizalde when it came 6♣2♠7♥.
The 3♠ turn brought a scare for Elizalde as it gave Neiman a flush draw to go with his overcard, but a 8♣ brick on the river resulted in the chips being pushed Elizalde’s way.
