Katie Lindsay opened on the button and Robert Cheung shoved in the small blind for 800,000. Yansong Kou reshoved in the big blind with slightly more and Lindsay tanked before folding:

Robert Cheung: 10♥10♣ All in
Yansong Kou: 9♦9♣

The runout improved Cheung's hand into trips with 6♥Q♦10♦A♦7♠ and he took down the pot to double up.

Bad Time for Queens

Erick Torres

Level 29 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Mark Davis got his chips in the middle from the hijack position against Zhou Lin in the small blind to be at risk for his tournament life.

Mark Davis: Q♣Q♠ All in
Zhou Lin: A♠A♦

Davis held a strong starting hand in pocket queens, but Lin had the goods as he showed pocket aces in response.

Davis needed a fortunate runout. The flop offered slim pickings as it fanned out 8♠J♣K♥. The 7♣ closed any backdoor opportunities, and the 4♦ sealed the deal in favor of Lin.

Level 29 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Sridhar Sangannagari opened under the gun to 325,000, and only Nicolas Maniable called, defending his big blind.

Maniable check-called a bet of 250,000 on the J♣Q♦6♦ flop, but ceded to the pressure when Sangannagari put him all in on the 5♥ turn.

Sangannagari pulled in the pot, adding to his towering stack, cementing his place as one of the chip leaders.

Level 29 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Stephane Roux raised to 320,000 from middle position and was called by Santhosh Amingad in the big blind.

The dealer fanned a 9♥6♦Q♦ flop. Amingad checked, and Roux bet 415,000. Amingad then went all in for roughly 1,200,000, and Roux snap called.

Santhosh Amingad: Q♠8♥ All in
Stephane Roux: K♠K♣

The turn K♥ ended the drama, and the 4♦ was of no consequence as Roux stack has surpassed the 10 million mark.

Lucky Triple Up for Camardella

Gaelle Jaudon

Level 29 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

All the chips were already in the middle for a three-way showdown between Giovanni Camardella, at risk with the smallest stack worth 1,350,000 and facing Frederic Delval and Russel Mcclean who had made the call:

Giovanni Camardella: Q♦Q♥ All in
Russel Mcclean: K♦K♥ All in
Frederic Delval: K♣Q♣

Mcclean was in good position to scoop the pot but a board Q♠3♥10♠10♦8♥ showed up to give trips to Camardella. Mcclean was left with only 130,000 chips after that hand and busted a few minutes later.

Player	Chips	Progress
Giovanni Camardella	2,800,000 2,595,000	2,595,000
Frederic Delval	720,000 5,000	5,000

Not to Be for Naughton

Erick Torres

Level 29 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Nicholas Naughton put in the final bits of his stack as he jammed for 185,000 from under the gun. Naughton was called by John Ishak in the hijack and Matthew Voeltz in the big blind to go three-way to a flop.

The flop came 10♣J♠A♥, which led to a check from Voeltz and a bet of 200,000 from Ishak. Voeltz got out of the way to create a showdown between Naughton and Ishak.

Nicholas Naughton: K♦K♥ All in
John Ishak: K♣Q♦

Naughton held a formidable pair of kings, but he found out the terrible news that the flop was unkind to his hand as Ishak flopped the nut straight.

Naughton needed help to at least chop or triple, but the 8♣ turn and the 5♣ river were not the cards he needed as Naughton was sent out of the tournament.

Matthew Voeltz	4,350,000 3,330,000	3,330,000
John Ishak	2,105,000 1,390,000	1,390,000

Mhiri Knocks Out Montes

Erick Torres

Level 29 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Shay Montes began the hand with an all-in from the cutoff to 490,000. Chakib Mhiri chose to call from the big blind to send the two to a showdown.

Shay Montes: K♣Q♣ All in
Chakib Mhiri: 3♥3♦

Montes flopped a flush draw, but it came with the caveat that Mhiri improved to a set as it fanned out 6♣J♠3♣. The Q♠ turn was not the card Montes needed, and the Q♦ river was not enough as Montes was sent to the rail.
