Following an open in the hijack to 10,000, Leonardo Rizzo moved all in for 36,000. A couple of seats to his left, Tomoyuki Yoshimiya chose to move all in too, which prompted a fold from the initial raiser.
Leonardo Rizzo: J♠6♠
Tomoyuki Yoshimiya: A♥9♠
Yoshimiya was chasing the bounty, but would have to try again another time, as the dealer put out a board of 10♦3♥6♥6♦10♣, giving Rizzo a full house and the double up.
Aliaksandr Shylko was all-in for his last 75,000 or so with Matthew Valeo trying to claim his bounty.
Aliaksandr Shylko: A♠A♣
Matthew Valeo: 10♣10♥
Shylko had the goods with aces and needed to fade a ten to survive. The 4♠9♦A♥ flop was favorable for Shylko as he hit top set. The rest of the board ran out 4♦3♣ and Shylko took around half of Valoe's stack.
In the first hand, John Riordan went all in from the button and Rania Nasreddine called in the small blind.
John Riordan: A♥A♣
Rania Nasreddine: A♠K♦
The board ran out 6♥5♣4♦8♣J♠, offering no help for Nasreddine, doubling Riordan up.
In the very next hand, Calvin Anderson opened from under the gun, action folded to Nasreddine, who went all in for her last 42,500. Shunjiro Kita in the small blind then went all in himself for 104,000, and Anderson folded after thinking briefly about it, and the cards went on their backs.
Rania Nasreddine: K♠Q♣
Shunjiro Kita: J♠J♦
The J♣8♦10♠ flop gave Kita a set, but Nasreddine had a straight draw. But the 2♠ turn and the 2♣ river completed the full house for Kita, sending Nasreddine to tha rail, and Kita collected her bounty.
The chips went in preflop between Matthew Zambanini on the button and Patrick Kennedy in the small blind to put Kennedy at risk.
Patrick Kennedy: A♦K♠
Matthew Zambanini: K♦K♥
Kennedy kept calling "Barry" as the board ran out, but he never showed as the runout came J♠2♥6♠J♦3♣ to eliminate Kennedy from the tournament.

Patrick Kennedy was looking for a spin, as he got all in preflop, and was off to the races against Justin Vaysman.
Patrick Kennedy: 5♥5♦
Justin Vaysman: A♥9♥
"The spin up starts now," announced Kennedy as the Q♥10♦8♣3♠7♥ runout kept him alive in the turbo.
Level: 14
Blinds: 2,500/5,000
Ante: 5,000
Lawrence Greenberg shoved for 9,000 from middle position. Brian Ng to his left called before Diego Sanchez on the button moved all-in for 71,500. Ng went into the tank and called.
Lawrence Greenberg: 10♦9♠
Diego Sanchez: J♠J♣
Brian Ng: K♣7♦
Greenberg was lucky enough to hit trips on Q♥9♥8♣9♦5♠ to secure a triple up while Sanchez was scooping the side pot.
Action was joined as three players had all their chips in the middle. Both Ryo Hara and Christopher Staats were at risk, as they were both covered by Dragana Mackelprang.
Ryo Hara: 4♠4♣
Christopher Staats: 8♣8♦
Dragana Mackelprang: A♦10♠
There were two bounties available for Mackelprang, and the K♥10♣10♦ flop significantly improved her chances of collecting them. When the turn 10♥ arrived, both her opponents got out of their seats, as Mackelprang now had the check mark with four-of-a-kind.
The mandatory Q♠ river was dealt, and the pot was pushed to Mackelprang, who asked if she could take a photo of the board before the dealer shuffled for the next hand.
