Xi Chen open-shoved all-in for 44,000 in middle position.Vincent Robert in the cutoff shoved all-in for around 120,000, pushing everyone else out of the hand. Chen and Robert went to a showdown of:
Xi Chen: 8♦7♦ 
Vincent Robert: A♥Q♦
Robert was ahead with ace-high on the flop of 6♣9♠9♣. But it gave Chen an open-ended straight draw and a chance to stay in the tournament. The turn 5♦ completed his draw making Robert frown. The river K♦ was dealt with no consequence.
Robert matched Chen's chips, visibly frustrated with the turn of events.

Jason Wheeler raised from early position to 9,000, and action folded around to Cristian David in the big blind who called.
The flop came 4♣5♣J♥ and both players checked to see the 3♦ peel off on the turn. David led out for 17,000, and Wheeler called.
The 2♠ came as the river, and the action went check-check. Wheeler tabled A♦2♦ for the wheel, and he has definitely got the bus in motion with a stack nearing 800,000. David mucked his cards on seeing Wheeler's wheel!
