Corel Theuma moved all in for 85,000 from middle position and James Chen called in the hijack.

Corel Theuma: A♥K♣K♥2♦2♠ All in
James Chen: A♣Q♥J♠4♥3♦

Theuma stood up from his seat and began filming the action as the flop came 9♠6♦8♥. The Q♦ turn gave Chen some outs with a pair, but the K♦ river improved Theuma to a set and earned him a double up.

"Let's go. Nice to get a monstrous hand when you have ten bigs," Theuma said as he sat back down.

On a flop of Q♥5♠3♣ Jonathan Krela got his last 30,000 into the middle with Viktor Blom making the call to try and bust him from the big blind.

Jonathan Krela: A♥A♦10♦9♠4♣ All in
Viktor Blom: K♠8♠6♣4♥2♦

Krela was one of the shortest stacks remaining in the tournament, so a scoop here would give him a good chance of sneaking into the money. However, the rest of the board came 9♥A♣, which may have improved Krela to a set of aces, but Blom ended up with a wheel, and sent Krela to the showers.
