Daniel Negreanu potted to 35,000 from middle position and Ronald Keijzer called in the hijack.
On the 6♠6♦5♦ flop, Negreanu jammed for 63,000 and Keijzer called.
Negreanu got out his vlogging equipment as the rail anxiously awaited the tabling of the cards.
Daniel Negreanu: A♠2♠9♥9♦
Ronald Keijzer: A♣8♣4♥3♦
Negreanu was in good shape with his pair of nines and the superior low draw.
"No deuce!" pleaded Negreanu as commentator Ali Nejad joined the sweat.
"You can't call for no deuce, Daniel. That's like saying no seven at the craps table," joked Nejad.
The board ran out 8♠Q♥ and Negreanu's nines scooped the whole pot as he doubled.

Action was picked up with the money in the middle already. Around 115,000 was in the middle preflop and Ali Eslami was all-in for 149,000 from the big blind at risk against Bruno Furth in the small blind on the flop reading 10♠9♦8♠.
Ali Eslami: K♣Q♥J♠9♠
Bruno Furth: A♥8♣7♥4♠
Eslami flopped the nut straight with the open-ended straight flush redraw. Nothing changed on the 10♦K♠ runout as Eslami improved to a flush to double.

Shaun Deeb raised to 35,000 from the cutoff and only Gus Hansen called from the small blind.
Hansen checked the 10♣9♥7♥ flop and Deeb bet 75,000. Hansen check-jammed for 84,000, which Deeb quickly called.
Gus Hansen: A♣10♥3♣5♥
Shaun Deeb: Q♣J♥5♠4♦
Hansen had top pair and a flush draw, but Deeb had a lot of cards he could hit to eliminate Hansen. The 2♠ turn gave a possible low draw, but the J♣fell on the river to give Deeb the winner with a pair of jacks. The tournament was now on the direct bubble.

On a flop of 7♥Q♥6♦, Dzmitry Urbanovich and Viktor Blom got all of their chips into the middle in a pot of over 1,000,000, with Urbanovich being the one at risk.
Dzmitry Urbanovich: A♥K♥10♥2♥
Viktor Blom: 7♦5♥4♥3♣
If Urbanovich were to lose this pot, the remaining 58 players would be in the money. The 7♠ on the turn propelled Blom into the lead with trip sevens and took away a lot of Urbanovich's outs. However, the 8♠ came on the river to give Urbanovich the best low, and the two chopped the pot.

A pot was brewing in a blind-on-blind battle between Yevgeniy Timoshenko from the small blind and Richard Green from the big blind.
30,000 went in from each preflop, 30,000 went in on the flop, and 90,000 went in on the turn from each to create a pot of 310,000.
With the board reading A♠10♥7♠Q♣6♠, Timoshenko checked to Green who bet 250,000. Timoshenko responded with a check-jam for 578,000, slightly more than what Green had.
Green would tank for over three minutes as the entire room stood and observed. Green eventually slammed forward a stack of chips to call off his stack.
Richard Green: A♣7♦4♦2♦
Yevgeniy Timoshenko: A♦K♠10♠5♣
Timoshenko rivered the nut flush with no low while Green flopped two pair and rivered the second nut low. He made the right call on the end to get half.

Andrew Voor raised to 35,000 from middle position with just 9,000 behind. When it folded to Ryan Hoenig in the big blind, he 3-bet to put Voor all in. Voor called and the cards were turned over.
Andrew Voor: A♥K♥6♣2♦
Ryan Hoenig: A♣K♦5♣4♥
Voor was one of the shortest stacks in the room, so even a chop would boost his stack considerably.
The flop came down 10♠7♥J♣ and a chop looked likely. The 10♦ on the turn meant only a four or five on the river would eliminate Voor. The 4♦ dropped on the river and the crowd around the table let out a groan of disbelief, as Hoenig improved to a pair of fours to send Voor to the rail on the direct bubble.
With the elimination of Voor all of the remaining players were now in the money.
