Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Cleveland Richards moved all in for around 50,000 from the cutoff and Kevin Rabichow put him at risk in the big blind.

Cleveland Richards: 7♥7♣ All in
Kevin Rabichow: Q♣Q♠

Richards was crushed by Rabichow's queens, and no help arrived on the 2♥J♦4♥A♥K♣ board as Rabichow scored the knockout.

"He came back from dinner just for this? One hand?" a tablemate said as Richards left the table.

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Can Miral defended his big blind against a raise by Steven Pedlow and checked the A♦J♠9♠ flop, after which he check-called a bet of 4,500. On the 5♥ turn, Miral checked once more and Pedlow now bet 5,000.

With around 20,000 behind, Miral gave it a few seconds of consideration and moved all-in for Pedlow to instantly declare "I call".

Can Miral: A♥8♣ All in
Steven Pedlow: A♠K♣

The 7♣ fell on the river and the kicker played to eliminate Miral just before the dinner break.

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

In a preflop all-in, Zhan Chen was all-in for around 25,000 after late registering on Day 2abc and he was in rough shape, as Kai Yang left him with only a handful of outs.

Zhan Chen: A♠K♥ All in
Kai Yang: K♦K♣

The Q♣10♥2♠ flop opened the door for more hope with the gutshot straight draw, but the 6♥ turn and 4♥ river were both blanks.

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Michel Bouskila opened from under the gun to 2,400 and Janelle Jacobson called from the cutoff. Guillermo Sanchez Otero moved all in on the button for 13,000 and Bouskila re-jammed, covering both players. Jacobson pondered, before deciding to fold, leaving the players to go heads-up with Otero at risk.

Guillermo Sanchez Otero: A♠K♥ All in
Michel Bouskila: 8♦8♠

The J♥Q♥3♥ flop didn't change anything, although Otero had picked up a straight draw.

There was very little sweat on the 3♣ turn and 3♠ river, and Otero was eliminiated.
