Johansson and Elias drew one, while Alexander took two. Johansson then led out for 85,000 and Alexander folded, but Elias called.
Johansson showed 9x8x7x4x3x, but Elias turned over 9x8x6x4x2x to win the last pot before break.
Nick Schulman raised to 50,000 on the button and was three-bet to 175,000 by Ben Yu in the small blind. Schulman responded by going all in and Yu counted out his remaining 580,000 before sending his hand into the muck.
Darren Elias raised to 60,000 on the button and Stuart Rutter called all in for the same amount in the big blind.
Rutter took three and Elias one. Rutter turned over 9x5x2x and drew a 4x on his first card. "That's a good start," Daniel Negreanu said.
Elias, meanwhile, had Jx9x7x6x and drew a 10x to make J-10. Rutter peeled his last card but found a Qx as he was sent to the rail in 10th place.
Oscar Johansson raised to 60,000 under the gun and Daniel Negreanu called in the small blind.

Both players drew one and Elias led out for 75,000. Johansson then raised to 250,000 and Elias folded.
Nick Schulman raised to 50,000 first to act and Ali Eslami defended his big blind.

Schulman tabled 8x5x4x3x2x and Eslami mucked his hand. The dealer briefly showed Eslami was second-best — confirming his elimination in 11th place.
