Level 35
: 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Saigokul Kannan went all in on the button, easily covering the short stacks in the blinds. Artur Kozlowski had the clock called him but made the call before the time was up.
Artur Kozlowski: A♦K♥ 
Saigokul Kannan: 2♣2♠
Kozlowski found help right away the A♥9♥Q♠ were revealed. The board completed with the 4♠ and 3♥, allowing Kozlowski to breathe a sigh of relief.
"I had to think to myself, have I flipped for $2,000 before?" said Kozlowski in reference to the looming pay jump. "I have so I had to put the call in."

Ramond Takhsh opened up the action from early position with a raise to 1,800,000. Lucas Kulbe in the hijack was his only caller.
The two went off to a flop of K♦J♦3♣ and Takhsh continued for 1,700,000. Kulbe put in the call, bringing in the 7♠ turn. Yet again, Takhsh bet and Kulbe called, except this time it was for 2,500,000. For the first time in the hand, Takhsh slowed down and checked the 7♥ river. Kulbe put out 4,500,000, which got a fold from Takhsh.

Level 35
: 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Upon returning from break, the tournament floor made an announcement that due to the amount of tanking and the frequency of clock being called, they would be diminishing the countdown to 20 seconds for anyone who has had clock called on them before.
Ken Takayama raised to 2,500,000 from the small blind and Oscar Arndt made the call.
Takayama took about a minute-thirty before cutting out 1,500,000. Arndt called.
The turn brought the Q♠ and after another long deliberation, Takayama checked, as did his opponent.
The river completed with the 9♥, completing another straight draw and Takayama bet 3,500,000 who was snap-called by Arndt.
Takayama tabled 8♦7♣ for the low end of the straight and Arndt tabled 9♦8♣ for the exact same straight causing the dealer to chop the pot between the two.

Saigokul Kannan moved all-in for 10,800,000 from middle position. Lowell Braddock on the button jammed for 2,700,000, then Timothy Thorp in the small blind called Kannan's bet.
It took a few minutes for the dealer to count the main pot and the side pot, but once done, she spread a flop of 5♥6♣Q♣. Thorp bet and Kannan waited for a minute to reach the next pay jump to call with the single 100,000 chip he had left.
Lowell Braddock: 8♣8♥
Saigokul Kannan: A♠J♣
Timothy Thorp: Q♠Q♥
Thorp flopped a set and even a full house with the 6♠3♠ runout to eliminate both of his opponents.

After the clock was called on him, Jared Ward shoved for 300,000 from under the gun. Lucas Kulbe in the small blind called the big blind. Kyungkeun Lee didn't see this action so he wanted to fold but checked his option.
Kulbe bet 800,000 on the 9♥8♣4♥ flop and Lee folded.
Jared Ward: 9♠4♣
Lucas Kulbe: 8♥5♥
Ward flopped two pair but Kulbe had a flush draw. The 6♦ changed nothing, but the 10♥ river completed the flush and Ward was eliminated.

: Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Mikhaile Richards found herself one player away from a $2,200 pay jump, as she went into the tank from under the gun. Eventually, a player at the table called the clock, and with just a few seconds left, she put in a min-raise, leaving just 1,700,000 behind. Action folded around to Ken Takayama in the big blind, who shoved, and Richards returned to the tank. After hearing "Payout!" from another table, she put in the call.
Mikhaile Richards: A♦8♦
Ken Takayama: A♣6♥
As it turned out, she would have survived after all, as the two players chopped up dead money on the A♥K♥10♣7♠Q♠ runout.
The very next hand, she open shoved under the gun. Roland Israelashvili isolated two doors down, and the two were off to a flip.
Mikhaile Richards: A♥K♥
Roland Israelashvili: J♠J♣
Israelashvili held on the 3♣4♦7♦Q♠4♥ runout, and Richards left with a smile on her face.
