Todd Ivens tried to move all in from under the gun, but the maximum he was allowed to raise was 175,000. Najeem Ajez did the job for him, raising to 500,000. Action folded back to Ivens, who called.
Todd Ivens: J♥J♣9♥7♣
Najeem Ajez: K♠K♦6♣3♣
The board ran out 5♠4♠3♥A♣8♣ and Ajez's kings held up to eliminate Ivens.
After a couple of preflop raises, Biao Ding and Roman Hrabec had all of their chips in the middle with Ding being the player at risk for just under 1,000,000.
Biao Ding: K♦Q♠J♥3♠
Roman Hrabec: A♥A♣10♣3♣
The flop came J♠3♥2♣ and Ding picked up two pair to take the lead. The Q♣ on the turn gave him a better two pair, but the A♦ on the river gave Hrabec a set of aces to eliminate Ding.
Artem Maksimov raised to 175,000 from the button. Jeffrey Hakim called from the small blind. Big blind Maximilian Schindler, who was short stacked, used a time bank card before also calling.
The flop came 10♣4♣3♦, and Hakim checked. Schindler then decided to move all in. Maksimov raised the pot, which was enough to put Hakim all in, and he called.
Maximilian Schindler: A♥10♦9♣6♦
Jeffrey Hakim: K♣7♦6♣5♦
Artem Maksimov: A♥Q♥5♥2♠
Hakim had a wrap and flush draw, Maksimov had a lower straight draw, and Schindler was ahead with a pair of tens. The 8♥ came on the turn, changing nothing, then the K♦ fell on the river, giving Hakim a pair of Kings to take the pot, which eliminated Schindler.
