Tom Siddle opened to 1,4000 from early position and George Pappas called from the cutoff. Ferrando Villa also called on the button, taking the players three-ways to the flop.
The Q♠8♣3♦ fell and players checked to the 7♦ turn.
Siddle checked and Pappas bet 3,000, which saw two folds.
Pappas pickes up small, putting him back to half starting stack in the last level of the day.
Tingfeng Wu opened the button before Mathew Frankland three-bet to 6,800 from the big blind, and Wu called.
The 8♥7♥6♠ flop checked through to the Q♦ turn which saw Frankland come with a slight overbet as he fired for 15,000, and Wu called.
The 10♣ river slowly checked through as Frankland tabled K♥K♣ for the winner as he collected another pot in a strong Day 1 performance.
Brandon Adams opened to 1,300 in the cutoff, finding a call from Gustavo Narducci in the big blind.
Both players declined to bet the 6♣2♠7♣ flop, and Narducci checked again on the K♠ turn.
Adams fired a bet of 2,800, taking dow the pot as Narducci folded.
The action was joined on a A♣9♠8♣ flop with roughly 14,000 in the middle.
The player in the big blind checked, as did Miltiadis Kyriakides, who was playing from early position. Action was then on Dustin Holladay, who placed a bet of 7,000. The big blind called, and Kyriakides hit them both with a perfectly executed check-raise.
Holladay took a minute or two, uncertain of what to do. He landed on a fold and returned his cards to the dealer.
The big blind folded almost straight away, and Kyriakides offered to show a card. The 6♣ was the exposed card to which Holladay said, "If he [the big blind] hadn't called, you and I were just getting it in".
Quirin Heinz checked out of the hijack on a board of Q♥K♠6♠K♣, and Devaraj Munisekar bet 5,000 from the cutoff. Heinz thought for a few moments and then slid in the call.
The 8♣ appeared on the river, causing Heinz to check again. Munisekar bet 6,500, which Heinz called once more. Munisekar showed a boat with 6♥6♣ and increased his stack to 200,000.
Andrew King raised to 1,200, which Tarun Goyal called in the cutoff. Button Orestis Kanakopoulos then three-bet to 4,800, which King four-bet to 18,000.
Goyal had seen enough and quickly mucked his cards, but Kanakopoulos wanted to see a flop and called.
King slowed down on the 9♦3♠5♥ flop, checking it over to Kanakopoulos. Kanakopoulos bet 11,000, and King called.
The 10♦ turn saw Kanakopoulos size up to a hefty 34,000. Upon hearing the amount, King took off his sunglasses and spent a few minutes in contemplation. Eventually, he check-called to the 3♦ river, which he also checked.
Kanakopoulos piled in a bet of 74,500, which covered most of both players' stacks. King leaned back in his chair, repeating "I do not believe you" a few times before he spent some more time in the tank.
Eventually, King verbally announced a call. Kanakopoulos tabled 6♦6♥ for a measly pair of sixes, which King royally beat with his A♠A♦. King shipped the massive pot and celebrated loudly, and Kanakopoulos could not help but smile as he paid his opponent off.
Kanakopoulos was left with about four big blinds, which he lost before the conclusion of Day 1d.
The action was picked up after Joseph Curcio in the big blind raised to 9,900, and Daniel Sindelar in the hijack reraised to 21,000.
Curcio called to discover a flop of 9♦3♣Q♣ where he check-called a continuation bet to 11,000.
The turn was the 5♣ and Sindelar moved all-in. Curcio went deep into the tank but check-folded.
Bolacio Palacios raised to 1,300 in the hijack and Bradley Smith called in the cutoff. Tsugunari Toma then three-bet to 4,800 on the button and Palacios four-bet to 14,100. Smith folded, but Toma called to see the 8♣4♣4♠ flop.
Palacios continued for 3,300 and Toma called. Both players checked the A♣ turn, and Palacios also checked the 7♣ river. Toma then bet 46,000.
Palacios took a minute before another player at the table called the clock. Palacios protested that he hadn't been given enough time, but the tournament official still started the 30-second countdown after arriving at the table. Palacios allowed the clock to run out before his hand was declared dead, and Toma took down the pot.
With 10:00 remaining in Level 5, the floor has announced that four more hands will be played at each table before bagging for the night.
