The action was joined as the cards were on their backs preflop. Anthony Mcie had Stephane Roux all in at risk, playing from the button and big blind position respectively.
Stephane Roux: A♦Q♦ 
Anthony Mcie: 9♥9♦
The deck favoured Roux on this occasion, as the board ran out 3♦J♠Q♠3♥6♦, earning him a full double up.
Robert Kim opened from under the gun and was called by Nan Min in the big blind.
On the K♥9♥7♥ flop, Min checked to Kim who bet 12,000 before Min check-jammed for a total of 27,000. Kim called.
Nan Min: A♥2♥
Robert Kim: 7♠7♦
Kim had flopped button set but was behind the flopped nut flush of Min. No waiting was required as the 9♣ landed on the turn to give Kim a full house and leave Min drawing dead to the 2♠ river as she hit the rail in brutal fashion.
The action was picked up on the 8♣7♣2♥Q♥ turn when Jameson Painter led for 11,000 in middle position. Alexander Wong on the button raised to 31,000 and Painter called. That led them to the 5♥ river on which Painter checked. Wong bet 55,000 and that won the pot uncontested.
Joshua Kay opened to 6,000 in early position and Yuya Sakamoto called on the button before Eric Penner three-bet to 27,000 in the big blind.
Kay four-bet to 70,000 and Sakamoto tank-folded before Penner five-bet jammed a stack of around 200,000. Kay quickly called.
Eric Penner: K♥K♣
Joshua Kay: A♣A♥
It was the cooler of all coolers and Penner couldn't hit a king as the board ran out 3♦7♥J♦8♦10♣ to mark his elimination. After the hand, Sakamoto told the table he folded ace-king suited.
There were roughly 13,500 chips in the pot on 8♣10♠8♠Q♥ when Mike Matusow led for 4,500. Samuel Roussy-Majeau called in early position.
Matusow led again for 15,000 when the 3♥ hit the river, Roussy-Majeau took his time before he made the fold. Matusow tabled the a straight with 10♥9♦.
Moran Merdinger shoved for 9,500 from under the gun and Michael Ginn called from middle position with a covering stack to put her at risk.
Moran Merdinger: K♣6♣
Michael Ginn: K♥Q♦
Merdinger was in rough shape against a dominating king but she paired her six on the A♥5♠6♦ flop, leaving Ginn drawing to three outs. The 2♥ turn and 8♥ river remained clean for Merdinger who doubled up through Ginn.
On the tail end of a 5♣3♥2♥9♣4♣ board with more than 130,000 already in the middle, Grant Maruya bet 83,000. Omar Del Pino went deep into the tank and eventually called.
"You win," Maruya instantly said and exposed his Q♥J♦ for a queen-high bluff. Del Pino had that beat with the J♣J♥ to drag in a very healthy pot.
Gyeongyeong Lee raised in early position and was met with an all-in from David Macisaac in the big blind. Lee called, and the players turned their cards over.
David Macisaac: A♦10♥
Gyeongyeong Lee: 7♠7♣
Macisaac flopped best on the A♠6♥K♣ flop, and retained his lead on the 6♠9♣ runout, earning himself a double up
