DJ Sharma raised to 130,000 in middle position, Loai Elayday moved all in for 1,720,000 in the hijack, and Sharma called.
Loai Elayday: J♣9♣ 
DJ Sharma: A♠10♦
"Keep it low," Sharma pleaded with the dealer heading to the flop, which came K♠7♦3♠. Sharma remained in the lead with his ace on the K♥ turn, while the 5♦ river sealed Elayday's elimination.
Benjamin Morgan raised to 100,000 from middle position and Aliaksei Boika three-bet to 215,000 from the hijack. Morgan came along with a call.
On the J♣6♦J♦ flop, Morgan checked, Boika continued for 55,000, and Morgan called.
The 7♣ landed on the turn, and this time Morgan check-folded versus Boika's second barrel.
Heads-up on a board of 3♠K♣2♣7♦ with several hundred thousand already in the middle, Chih Wei Fan bet 275,000 from the big blind and Malcolm Trayner called in middle position.
The 4♦ completed the board and Fan slightly increased his wager for a bet of 300,000. Trayner thought a while before announcing he was all in, which was enough to put Fan all in for his last 975,000.
Fan went deep into the tank and began quietly listing what he thought Trayner's hands could be.
After a few minutes, Fan reluctantly called all in and Trayner turned over K♦Q♦ for a pair of kings. Fan showed he held Q♣Q♥ for a pair of queens and was eliminated.
"I level myself too much..." Fan said. "Good game."
Arriving at the table to see Josh Arieh all-in and at risk for around 800,000 from the blinds, with Simon Britton trying to score the knockout from the button.
Josh Arieh: K♠J♣
Simon Britton: 4♦4♠
Britton had the chance to eliminate the seven-time bracelet winner if his pocket fours could win the race.
Arieh found no help on the 5♥6♥3♠ flop, and his hopes took another hit when Britton improved to a straight on the 7♥ turn.
The 6♠ river didn't bring Arieh a chop, and he wished the table good luck before making his exit from the Main Event.
Wellington Araujo raised to 100,000 in early position, and, after Daniel Hachem three-bet him to 250,000 in the cutoff, Araujo moved all in for 915,000, which Hachem called.
Wellington Araujo: 10♥10♣
Daniel Hachem: A♦K♦
The 4♥9♥2♥ flop was a welcome sight for Araujo, not only keeping him in the lead, but also reducing Hachem's outs. That mattered not, though, as Hachem pinged the A♠ on the turn to take the lead. The 3♦ had no effect on the outcome, and Araujo slid his chips into the middle, took a photo of the board, and headed out.
Catching the action on the 7♥K♠8♠J♥7♣ river, Tianle Wang checked from the big blind before Callum Roque bet a pot-sized bet of 1,000,000 from middle position.
Wang went deep into the tank, but eventually came out with a call.
"You win," Roque simply stated as he windmilled 9♠9♥ across the table. Wang opened K♣Q♠ for top pair, and he raked in the pot to cross the five-million mark.
After several preflop raises, Phillip Mighall committed his 1,470,000 from the big blind and was up against Allan Sannier in the cutoff.
Phillip Mighall: A♦J♣
Allan Sannier: 8♠8♦
Sannier flopped a set on K♣5♦8♥ to leave his opponent with only runner-runner outs. The 5♠ turn already solidified Mighall's elimination, and he took his exit as the meaningless 6♦ river completed the board.
With 1,350,000 already in the pot already preflop, David Urban fired 450,000 from the big blind on the K♥Q♣3♣ flop. Jason Blount called from middle position.
The 10♠ landed on the turn, and Urban jammed for his remaining 1,125,000. Blount quickly made the call.
David Urban: K♣K♠
Jason Blount: Q♠Q♥
It was a brutal cooler of set over set, with Blount needing the case queen to make quads.
The 8♣ river was no help, and the pot of more than four million was pushed over to Urban.
Lauri Saaskilahti raised to 120,000 on the button and Lucas Jumalon three-bet to 400,000 in the small blind. Saaskilahti called, and they saw a flop of 2♥10♠7♣.
Jumalon then continued for 225,000, and Saaskilahti called. Jumalon bet another 800,000 on the 4♣ turn, and Saaskilahti again called.
The river was the 9♦ and Jumalon slowed down and checked. Saaskilahti then announced all in, and Jumalon quickly folded.
Saaskilahti allowed Jumalon to pick one of his cards, and Jumalon turned over the 6♥. "What a beast," tablemate Abhishek Goindi said.
"Can I shake your hand, sir?" Ibrahim Naim added as he reached across the table.
"This should be the feature table," Goindi said.
With around 650,000 already in the pot on a board of 7♣3♣K♦6♣J♥, Brian Yoon checked from the small blind and Abhishek Goindi fired 325,000 from the big blind. Yoon took his time before making the call.
Goindi tabled J♣10♣ for a flush, and Yoon slid his cards back to the dealer.
The hand left Yoon short-stacked, and he was eliminated shortly afterward.
