Garry Gurevich, the youngest player who remained in the Main Event, moved all in for 345,000 from the hijack. It folded back to Sam Darkin, who quickly called in middle position.
Garry Gurevich: A♠Q♠ 
Sam Darkin: A♦K♦
Gurevich turned a flush draw on 4♦9♠2♥3♠, as well as some chop outs. His Main Event officially came to an end on the A♣ river, however, with his top pair being outkicked by the Big Slick of Darkin.
The action folded to Shawn Fagan in the cutoff who ripped all in for around 300,000. Alan Sternberg called on the button and Jeff Gross stuck in the last of his 140,000 chips from the small blind.
Jeff Gross: A♣K♣
Shawn Fagan: Q♣J♥
Alan Sternberg: A♠8♠
The flop came 10♦9♣7♥ and Gross was still in the lead but his opponents had plenty of equity. The turn brought the K♦ to give Fagan the nut straight and both of his opponents were left drawing dead to the 7♣ on the river. Fagan earned nearly a triple up while Gross was sent to the rail early on Day 5.
From middle position, Roman Korenev raised to 40,000, and only Christian Portillo called from the big blind.
Portillo check-called a bet of 35,000 by Korenev on the J♥A♠6♥ flop.
The turn came the 10♥ and both players checked to see the 8♠ drop on the river. Two more checks followed and Portillo revealed the best hand holding K♠10♠ for a pair of tens.
It had been a slow start in the Horseshoe Gold section withPokerNews witnessing six consecutive raise-folds.
Finally, there was action at Table 637 as Justin Pechie opened to 50,000 on the button and Raja Chirumamilla three-bet jammed a stack of 450,000 in the small blind. Sergio Veloso then shoved a stack of 1,565,000 from the big blind to put Pechie to a decision.
"There's no way," he said. "Sorry if I'm nitrolling you."
After hearing that, Veloso immediately called the clock, but the dealer told him enough time hadn't passed. Soon after, Pechie called off with a stack of around 1,200,000.
Raja Chirumamilla: 10♠10♣
Justin Pechie: A♥K♦
Sergio Veloso: 9♣9♦
Veloso took a huge lead as the flop landed 4♠9♥Q♦ to give him a set. He was far from gracious after the big suckout, clapping his hands and taking a lap as the board finished out A♠K♣ to earn him a double knockout.
He returned to the table and shook Pechie's hand, but Chirumamilla wasn't in the mood for niceties and headed to the payout counter.
Esther Taylor opened from under the gun with A♦A♣ and Adrien Delmas called from the small blind with K♦8♦.
The flop came 5♦K♠3♠ and Delmas check-called a 100,000 bet from Taylor.
Taylor sized up with a 260,000 bet when checked to on the 2♣ turn and Delmas opted to fold his top pair.
Christopher Alcindor had started the day with a mere 12 and a half big blinds and just invested all but one of them to the A♣K♥J♦ flop on which he checked. Andrejs Prost bet 25,000 to cover the last bit of Alcindor, who went into the tank and jokingly asked Prost how much he started with before a forced smile saw him fold and walk to the rail.
In the very next hand on that table, Scott Allacher raised to 50,000 and James Charbonneau three-bet to 140,000 two seats over. Justin Liberto four-bet jammed for 525,000 and Allacher folded, while Charbonneau called rather swiftly.
Justin Liberto: K♣K♦
James Charbonneau: 9♦9♥
The superior pocket pair remained ahead on the Q♣3♣3♠4♣5♠ runout, and Liberto doubled.
Soon after that, Alcindor was eliminated after he couldn't spin up the one big blind and change.
Lucas Bandeira moved all in for 550,000 from the button and Wagner Wysotchanski put him at risk in middle position.
Lucas Bandeira: Q♣Q♠
Wagner Wysotchanski: A♥J♣
Wysotchanski went from looking for an ace to hoping for a ten following the K♠Q♦5♥ flop as Bandeira hit a set, while Wysotchanski picked up a straight draw. The turn, though, was the K♥ to improve Bandeira to a full house.
Wysotchanski was already drawing dead, and the 10♥ river was merely a cruel tease as Bandeira doubled up.
Fabrice Bigot opened to 45,000 from the button with Q♥Q♦ and Stephen Chidwick defended his big blind holding 10♥7♦.
They saw a flop of K♣J♥10♦, where Chidwick check-called a bet of 25,000 from Bigot to see the A♠ drop on the turn. Chidwick checked and then folded to a bet of 55,000 from Bigot.
Yaichi Fukao opened from late position, seeing Stefanita Fechete jam in his last 350,000 or so from the big blind. Fukao looked him up to put Fechete at risk.
Stefanita Fechete: 9♠9♥
Yaichi Fukao: A♥10♥
Fukao flopped best on 5♦A♣K♥, and Fechete failed to find a nine on the 4♠4♣ runout. Fechete said his goodbyes to his former table, wishing his former opponents good luck.
Greg Merson limped in from the cutoff with A♣8♥ and Josselin Gardes raised to 80,000 on the button with Q♥9♦. Chris Viox called in the big blind with K♣J♣, then Merson made it 315,000.
That was enough to get the job done as both of Merson's opponents folded, allowing him to take the pot.
