Action was joined with 8,000 already in the pot and a board showing 2♦5♠9♦6♥.
Under the gun player, Ryuta Nakai, checked to John Volpendesta in the cutoff, who placed a bet of 10,000. Nakai's response was one of total pressure, moving all in, covering his opponent.
Volpendesta looked a tortured soul while deciding what to do, but reluctantly abandoned his chips already in the middle by returning his cards to the dealer.
After Paul Rhoades had bet the 9♥2♥8♠2♣ turn from early position, Rutger Hennen raised to 11,500. Rhoades tossed in a call, after which the 3♠ river was checked down.
Rhoades tables K♥K♦, winning the pot when Hennen claimed to muck a lower over-pair.
David Baldanza raised to 1,000 from middle position before Andreas Kniep three-bet to 3,000 from the button. Rodrigo Portaleoni cold called from the big blind and Baldanza also called.
Three ways to the A♠J♥4♦ flop that was checked to Kniep, who bet 2,800. Portaleoni folded, but Baldanza called.
Two checks followed the 5♦ turn to see the K♣ roll off on the river. Baldanza checked before Kniep bet 15,300. Baldanza swiftly released his cards and surrendered the pot to Kniep.
Alec Torelli and Lyvin Soon Lee Toh were heads-up on a flop of Q♦J♥9♠ with several thousand already in the middle.
Torelli bet 2,500 from the small blind and Toh called.
The 10♣ turn brought four cards to a straight on board and Torelli barreled for 5,000.
Toh min-raised to 10,000 and, undeterred, Torelli shoved for 45,200 total.
Toh sent his hand into the muck and Torelli collected the pot.
Sebastian Zalazar opened to 800 from the cutoff and Matthew Waterfall called from the small blind.
The flop came K♣4♠Q♣ and Waterfall check-called an 1,100 continuation bet from Zalazar. Both players then checked down the 10♠ turn and Q♥ river.
Waterfall showed J♣4♣ for two pair, queens and fours which was enough to take the pot.
Action was picked up on the river in a pot between Miroslav Alilovic in the big blind and Juli Black in the cutoff with 25,500 in the middle.
The board read 5♦8♣2♦Q♦A♣ and Miroslave Alilovic bet 13,600. Black responded by moving all in for 38,800 effective and Alilovic went into the tank.
After some time contemplating a decision for his tournament life, he shrugged and put the chips into the center.
Miroslav Alilovic: A♦A♠ 
Juli Black: A♥Q♣
Alilovic's set of aces was good against the top two of Black and Alilovic secured the double in a sizable pot.
Action was joined with roughly 11,000 in the pot, and a board showing 10♠Q♣5♣K♦.
Action checked over to Kyle Chang on the button, who put out a bet of 7,500. Liam Murphy, in the big blind, responded by moving all in for 11,100. Frank Bonacci, the only other player in the hand, made the call, and Chang called too.
The river 7♠ didn't change the board, and when Bonacci checked, Chang placed a bet of 33,000. There was no tanking from Bonacci, who immediately folded, at which point Chang showed his A♠J♥, for a Broadway straight. Murphy flipped over K♣9♥ as he was standing up and getting ready to leave.
Atanas Malinov opened to 1,000 from the cutoff and was called by Nicholas Schwarmann who defended from the big blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of Q♥Q♦9♦ and Malinov continued for 800. Schwarmann check-called.
Malinov fired a second barrel of 3,100 on the Q♠ turn, then bet 7,200 on the 7♠ river. Schwarmann called both times but mucked his cards after Malinov flipped over Q♣3♣ for quads.
