Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Michael Rocco opened to 420,000 in the hijack and Javier Francort reraised the pot from the small blind. Rocco put the last of his chips in the middle for around 1,500,000 and the cards were tabled.
Michael Rocco: A♣10♥8♣3♦
Javier Francort: A♥10♦9♥9♦
The flop came J♦7♥5♥ and Rocco stood from his seat with his tournament life hanging in the balance. The 7♦ on the turn and the 9♠ on the river improved Francort to a full house and Rocco was eliminated.

David Paredes raised for half of his short stack and was called by Alex Foxen, who then potted the 10♣6♥5♣ flop. Paredes only had 385,000 behind and called all in.
David Paredes: A♥K♥7♦5♦
Alex Foxen: A♦Q♠4♦3♥
Paredes was marginally ahead with a pair of fives while Foxen had a straight draw with one live card. The J♦ turn and 10♦ river changed nothing and Paredes secured the urgently needed double.

Melad Marji opened to 350,000 from the cutoff and Michael Wang defended from the big blind.
The flop came K♦Q♦7♥. Wang checked and Marji bet 270,000. Wang check-raised to 1,600,000 and Marji shoved. Wang, who had 355,000 and was covered, called and was at risk.
Michael Wang: A♦K♥9♣3♦
Melad Marji: A♠K♣7♦5♦
Marji had the better made hand with kings and sevens but Wang had the nut-flush draw. The J♦10♠ runout brought in the nut-flush for Wang who secured yet another double up, bringing his stack above 4,000,000 after being down to 65,000 half a couple of hours earlier, worth just over half of a big blind at the time.

Javier Francort raised to 300,000 from under the gun and was called by Quan Zhou in the big blind.
Zhou check-called a 300,000 bet from Francort on the A♠K♠2♥ flop and then check-raised a bet of 450,000 from Francort to 1,200,000 on the A♥ turn. Francort called.
The 6♥ filled the board out and and Zhou wagered 2,500,000 — sending Francort deep into the tank.
"People don't usually like to bluff here..." Francort mused as he was contemplating his decision.
Francort eventually decided to fold and Zhou collected the large pot without showing.

Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
The action folded to Sean Rafael in the small blind who made it 360,000. Melad Marji called in the big blind and the dealer spread the flop of 8♦7♠7♣. Rafael announced a bet of 840,000 and Marji jammed all in for his last 940,000 which Rafael called.
Melad Marji: A♠9♦6♠5♣
Sean Rafael: A♥K♥8♥4♦
Rafael had two pair but Marji was looking to catch a straight and not feelings. The 3♥ on the turn was a brick but the 4♥ on the river gave Marji what he needed for a double-up.

Quan Zhou raised the cutoff to 420,000 and Simeon Tsonev in the big blind repotted to 1,320,000. Once it was back on Zhou, he said "I fold kings" and exposed the K♠K♣. "Good fold," Tsonev replied and exposed the A♠A♥J♥.
Javier Francort then raised to 300,000 in the cutoff and Erik Seidel called in the big blind. Following a 7♥6♠4♠ flop, Seidel check-called for 400,000. Both checked the J♠ turn and Seidel's bet of 700,000 on the K♣ river won the pot uncontested.
Alex Foxen potted to 420,000 in the next hand. Tsonev repotted to 1,440,000 on the button and all players behind including Foxen folded.

Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
David Paredes raised the pot out of the small blind and was called by Quan Zhou in the big blind. With around 900,000 behind to the J♥6♣4♠ flop, Paredes got it in and Zhou looked him up without too much hesitation.
David Paredes: K♦Q♦Q♠2♦
Quan Zhou: K♠J♦10♥9♠
The 8♣ turn gave Zhou further outs and he hit one of them with the K♥ river, sending Paredes out in 12th place.

Quan Zhou called from the small blind and Javier Francort checked his option in the big blind.
Francort called a 230,000 bet from Zhou on the 2♣7♥3♠ flop and then raised a 330,000 bet from Zhou to 900,000 on the 2♥ turn.
Zhou thought it over, but landed on a fold — conceding the pot to Francort.
