Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Action was picked up preflop, with Andrew Ostapchenko already all in for his last 6600 under the gun. A side pot was created as Feng Yu in the hijack, Yifan Tang on the button, and Santhosh Suvarna in the small blind all went off to a flop, too.
On a flop of 4♦A♠K♣ Tang went all in for 34,800 when checked to, and the other two folded, confirming his side pot.
Andrew Ostapchenko: K♦Q♠J♠4♠ 
Yifan Tang: 6♥5♦3♠2♦
Tanh had an inside wrap and got there instantly on the 3♥ turn. Ostapchenko could only survive with a ten, and by some miracle, the 10♣ river handed him the main pot.

Three ways to the 4♠7♥6♣ flop where Aaron Kupin and Matt Vengrin checked from the blinds. Benjamin Hamnett bet 1,800 from the button with Kupin calling from the small blind, and Vengrin calling from the big blind.
Three checks followed the J♦ turn to see the 2♣ appear on the river. Kupin checked, and Vengrin bet 8,000. Hamnett and Kupin folded, allowing Vengrin to win the pot.

Action was picked up on a flop of K♥J♣2♠ with 6,400 in the middle, and Garik Tamasian all in and at risk for 24,500. He and Robert Cowen went off to a showdown.
Garik Tamasian: A♣A♥J♥7♠
Robert Cowen: K♠Q♦J♦4♠
Tamasian couldn't overtake Cowen's two pair on the 8♦4♥ runout, as he exited the tournament area.
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
With 18,600 in the pot three players saw the dealer produce a flop of J♥4♦5♥. Billy Tarango checked from the small blind, and Tarun Golati checked from under the gun. Michael Dimaiuta bet the pot from the cutoff, and only Tarango called.
Tarango immediately jammed for 40,000 when he saw the A♠ hit the turn. Dimaiuta called with slightly fewer chips and the cards were revealed.
Michael Dimaiuta: A♦9♣8♥6♦
Billy Tarango: A♣5♦4♣2♠
Tarango was in the lead with two pair, and the 5♠ river improved him to a full house. The pot was pushed to Tarango and Dimaiuta was out.

Chino Rheem opened the action by potting it to 3,500 from the hijack. Michal Schuh repotted to 12,000 on the button, and Rheem called after around a minute.
The 6♥9♦10♣ flop checked through, and Rheem checked again on the 3♦ turn. Schuh bet out for 25,000, forcing Rheem to relinquish his cards to the dealer.

Eran Carmi got it all in, and shortstacked preflop, attempting to crack the aces of opponent Joshua Ladines whilst holding them himself.
Eran Carmi: A♥A♠J♦5♥
Joshua Ladines: A♣A♦8♦7♣
The 9♦5♦J♥ flop seemed sent by the poker Gods for a max sweat, as Carmi's aces now didn't even play considering his two pair. Ladines picked up a diamond draw, as well as a gutshot, which he hit on the 10♥ turn leaving Carmi with just four outs. The 9♠ river sealed his fate, as he hit the rail.
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
With 23,500 in the pot, four players saw the flop of Q♦6♦5♠. Cary Katz and Bin Duan checked before Kai Yang bet the pot from the hijack. Paul Gunness called, which prompted Katz and Duan to get out of the way.
Yang thought Gunness had raised, so Yang ended up putting in his 34,700 total, and Gunness called.
Kai Yang: K♦Q♠Q♥3♥
Paul Gunness: A♥K♠K♥3♠
Yang was ahead with top set, but the 7♠ turn gave Gunness a flush draw. The 6♠ river may have completed Gunness' flush, but Yang improved to a boat to win the pot and double-up.
