Level 35
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Michael Stashin shoved his stack of around 4,000,000 into the middle from the cutoff, and Adrian Tivadar made the call from the big blind.
Michael Stashin: A♠5♣ 
Adrian Tivadar: A♦K♦
Stashin had run into the Big Slick of Tivadar and would hit the rail unless he found some help from the dealer. The dealer provided no assistance to either player as she put out a board of 10♥3♠7♠J♦2♥. This meant Tivadar's ace-king high held up, and Stashin was eliminated in 21st place.

David Yoon opened to 1,000,000 in middle position and Najeeb Elkamand called in the big blind taking them to a flop.

Najeeb Elkamand: 6♥5♥
David Yoon: A♠Q♠

The dealer completed the board with a 7♠ sealing Elkamand's fate to claim his payout.

Michael Stashin made it 1,000,000 from early position and Peter Walsworth jammed for 4,075,000 from the cutoff. Kevin Schulz moved in over the top from the small blind with the covering stack, which forced Stashin out.
Peter Walsworth: A♥8♥
Kevin Schulz: A♣K♦
Schulz's Big Slick dominated Walsworth, but the 3♦Q♦5♣8♣7♠ runout gave Walsworth the best hand with a pair of eights on the turn, and he doubled up at the expense of Schulz.

Dylan Lambe open-shoved for around 3,700,000 and got a caller from the player to his left Jimmy Setna, putting his tournament life on the line.
Dylan Lambe: K♠K♣
Jimmy Setna: A♣A♥
Lambe was ready to leave when the flop dropped K♦4♥2♠ giving him a set. The turn 5♥ didn't help Setna. When the river 4♣ fell, Lambe improved to a full house, securing his double up.
