Michael Monroig raised pot from early position to 85,000 only for Daniel Ezekiel to three-bet all in for 165,000 from middle position. Action was folded back around to Monroig, who snap called.
Daniel Ezekiel: A♣K♠Q♥6♣
Michael Monroig: A♠Q♣10♣3♥
The flop came 5♦7♠6♦, and Ezekiel was ahead with his pair of sixes. The 2♦ didn't change things on the turn, but when the miracle 4♠ fell on the river, it made Monroig a gutshot wheel to send him the pot and Ezekiel packing.

Michael Lin, Tomer Daniel, and Keith Crowder all opted to limp in from under the gun, the cutoff, and the small blind respectively. Big blind Giuseppe Pantaleo then potted it to 125,000. Lin and Daniel called. Crowder did not.
The 7♥4♦4♠ flop checked through, and Pantaleo went for a delayed continuation-bet of 140,000 on the 5♥ turn. Lin was the only other player to see the J♦ river. When checked to, he checked it back instantly and showed 9♦8♠8♣4♥. His trips were good, and Pantaleo had a wry smile on his face as he mucked.

Action picked up on the turn in a hand between Martin Schamaun and Jason Lang with the board reading 9♠10♠2♦K♣.

Martin Schamaun: A♥10♥9♣6♥
Jason Lang: Q♦J♠10♦2♠
Lang had turned the nut straight, and the 3♥ on the river sent Schamaun packing.

Tomer Daniel took down two pots in a row, which boosted his stack to around 2,600,000. First, Daniel made it 85,000 in middle position and got called by Keith Crowder, Giuseppe Pantaleo, and Michael Monroig.
On the 3♣2♥A♠ flop, it checked to Daniel, who fired out 225,000. That was enough to earn him the pot as his opponents folded. In the very next hand, Daniel raised to 85,000 from under the gun and took it down.
After that, Pantaleo raised to 75,000 from the hijack, and Michael Lin called in the cutoff.
Both checked the 3♦4♣5♦ flop to the 5♠ turn, where Pantaleo bet 75,000 and Lin called.
The A♣ river checked through, and Lin's pair of nines with J♣10♣9♥9♠ was good for the pot.

Lin checked again and Monroig bet enough to put Lin all in who had about 1,100,000 back.
Lin went into the tank, eventually opting to surrender his hand.

For the third successive hand, only Rayan Chamas and Jacob Snider saw a flop, as they continue their battle, and it would be Chamas who comes out on top yet again.
Chamas potted from the hijack, and Snider called, sending the two off to a flop of 2♥2♣10♦. It checked through, and Snider came out for 150,00. Chamas made the call. The river 8♦ checked through also, and Snider announced "Ace-queen high". Chamas' K♠J♥10♠5♦ was good.

Michael Trivett raised the pot to 105,000 from early position and was called by Sean Troha in the big blind.
The flop came 5♠2♦K♦, Troha checked and Trivett bet out for 75,000, which sent Troha into the tank, and he eventually decided to re-pot to 480,000, which effectively put Trivett all in. Trivett called.
Michael Trivett : A♠K♥Q♠4♦
Sean Troha: K♠Q♦J♦8♣
The turn brought the 4♠ and the river the 10♠ to send Trivett the pot with two pair and leave Troha running on fumes with 80,000

Matthew Beck raised to 75,000 in the hijack. Both Rayan Chamas and Jason Lang made the call, and the three went off to a flop.
The 6♣2♣K♠ board checked through, and Chamas checked for a second time on the 2♥ turn. Lang bet out for 125,000, Beck called, and Chamas looked at his cards for a final time before folding. The 4♣ checked through, and Lang turned over Q♣J♣10♠2♦ showing that he'd flopped a pair, turned trips and rivered a flush. "That's just overkill" a tablemate told him, as he further established his chip lead over the table.
