Jiawei Mao raised from under the gun to 60,000 and Adrian Mateos called from middle position.
Alexander Greenblatt also in middle position then three-bet to 225,000 and action folded to Damian Salas on the button who went deep into the tank and decided to four-bet to 475,000. All other players got out of the way and action was back on Greenblatt who also went deep into the tank before he moved all in for 1, 840,000.
Again this sent Salas back into the tank for 3-4 minutes before he released his hand sedning the pot to Greenblatt uncontested and with no flop needed.

Action was folded around to Kunal Patni in the cutoff, and he open-jammed all in and had the remaining players covered. David Paredes in the small blind snap-called, and Andrew Fleming in the big blind folded.
David Paredes: A♥K♥
Kunal Patni: Q♥J♣
A nice flop came for Paredes with the 3♣A♠2♣ dropping, and when the 7♠ peeled off on the turn, Patni was drawing dead and Paredes guaranteed the double up. The irrelevant 9♣ fell on the river to seal the deal.

Steven Jones: K♠K♦
Seunghyun Nam: A♦Q♦
Nam picked up a little bit of help on the 8♣8♥Q♠ flop, but Jones was still in the lead with his kings. The board ran out safe for Jones with the 2♣ landing on the turn and the river bringing the 9♥ to secure him the double up.
