Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

The action was joined as Bradley Jansen and Hajime Watanabe were competing for a pot that had ballooned to roughly 210,000.

The five community cards were already on their backs, reading 7♠6♥Q♣10♠9♠, and the action was on Jansen in middle position.

Jansen elected to check, leading Watanabe to place a bet of 84,000. After some time to consider his options, Jansen moved all in for 285,000.

Watanabe responded by going into the tank. After thinking through the hand for a few minutes, he decided to fold, returning his cards to the dealer and surrendering the pot to his opponent.

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

With around 250,000 in the pot on a board of 5♣4♣3♦7♣, Humberto Lopes Galindo bet 120,000 from the button and Carlos Loving called in the big blind.

The river was the 10♠ and Lopes Galindo moved all in. Loving had around 300,000 remaining and took a few minutes before folding.

At the same time at another table, Damian Salas and Linglin Zeng had built a pot of around 300,000 as they went heads-up to the 6♣7♦3♥ flop. Salas then bet 50,000 from the hijack and Zeng called in middle position.

Salas bet another 90,000 on the J♠ turn, putting each chip in one at a time. Zeng played with her stack for a few minutes but eventually surrendered the pot to the 2020 Main Event champion.

Leonard Sande: K♠K♥ All in
Safiya Umerova: 10♥10♣
