Vincent Moscati raised from the cutoff to 360,000, and Lawrence Brandt three-bet pot to 1,200,000 from the button. David Daniels in the small blind then four-bet all in for 2,100,000. Moscati folded, and Brandt snap called:
David Daniels: A♣A♥8♣2♣
Lawrence Brandt: Q♦J♥J♠8♥
A jack came as the door card on the J♣K♦8♦ flop, and it was looking grim for Daniels. The 4♦ turn did not help him at all, and when the 10♦ peeled off on the river, it was curtains for Daniels and he was sent to the cage.
Mir Gaskari open-shoved all-in in middle position for 520,000 and got called by James Cheung in hijack taking them to showdown.
Mir Gaskari: A♠Q♠10♥6♠
James Cheung: A♦9♠7♦5♠
Gaskari had Cheung dominated, but the flop gave him an upset when Cheung spiked a pair on the flop 7♣3♣2♦. Gaskari was on life support when the turn 9♦ improved Cheung's hand to two pair. It all ended when the J♥ river fell, sealing Gaskari's fate to be eliminated from the tournament.
Cheung apologized to Gaskari and gave him a fist bump of sportsmanship.

Action was picked up with Ferenc Deak at risk and all in for around 1,600,000 against James Cheung.
Ferenc Deak: K♥K♦3♠3♣
James Cheung: A♠8♥5♠2♥
Deak was ahead on the flop with his pocket kings but the flop ran 3♥4♥8♦ giving Cheung a chance to turn things around with a straight draw. Deak's chances for a double-up looked slim when the turn 2♦ completed Cheung's straight. The river 4♦, returned the lead to Deak with a full house. Deak scored a crucial double.
