Ben Fan jammed his final approximately 8,000,000 and was called by Robbie Schiffbauer in a hurry to send them to a showdown.

Ben Fan: 3♥3♠ All in
Robbie Schiffbauer: A♥A♠

Schiffbauer held a sizeable lead as he had the best starting hand possible; thus, Fan needed to materialize an upset to stay in the tournament.

The Q♦K♦2♦ flop kept Schiffbauer in the lead, but the 7♦ turn did present some chop outs as a diamond on the river would give both players a flush. The 5♥ river did not do so and sent Fan out in fifth place. Fan earned $63,706 for his effort.

On the 2♥ river, Harrison slid out a bet of 7,500,000 and Schiffbauer gave up his hand.

After bleeding chips, Arthur Morris had the majority of his stack in on the big blind and was left with 800,000 behind. The action was folded to Robbie Schiffbauer in the small blind, who raised blind to put Morris all in. Morris called blind as well.

Arthur Morris: 10♦2♠ All in
Robbie Schiffbauer Q♣J♣

Not the nicest flop for Morris when it came K♦7♠A♦, taking away any ten as an out for him. But then the 2♦ dropped on the turn to send him into the lead, and when the 4♣ fell on the river, Morris was pushed the pot and a double up to hang around a bit longer.
