Hossein Ensan had three-bet an earlier open to 205,000 in the hijack, and he called off when Michael Mizrachi shoved his 445,000 in from the small blind.
Michael Mizrachi: A♣K♣ 
Hossein Ensan: A♥8♥
Mizrachi's kicker remained in play on the 6♦6♥6♠2♣Q♥ runout, securing him another double-up.
Alen Bakovic had gotten his stack of 310,000 in on the button against Will Givens in early position.
"Short deck!" Givens shouted across the room as the cards were tabled.
Alen Bakovic: A♣Q♦
Will Givens: J♠10♠
While the K♣9♠K♦7♠9♥ board could also have emerged in short deck, it did not improve Givens' hand and Bakovic doubled.
Heads up to the 3♦2♣6♣8♦7♦ river, with 490,000 in the middle, Lara Eisenberg checked from the small blind to Michael Mizrachi on the button. Mizrachi bet 500,000, Eisenberg raised all in to 565,000, and Mizrachi called.
Eisenberg showed A♦2♦ for the nut flush. Mizrachi had J♦10♦ for a lower flush, and paid the bet to be left with just over four big blinds.
Aaron Barone three-bet to 210,000 in the small blind before Tianle Wang moved all in from the cutoff. Another tablemate called the clock on Barone after he tanked for a few minutes, and he eventually called for 1,225,000.
Aaron Barone: A♣Q♦
Tianle Wang: J♣J♦
Barone was racing for his tournament life, and he took the lead on the A♥Q♠8♦ flop with top two pair. The rest of the board ran out 3♥10♥, and Barone doubled up.
Pikcing up the action on a 9♠7♥7♣8♠ turn, with 665,000 already in the pot. Caitlin Comeskey checked A♠K♠ under the gun to Tony Dunst in middle position.
Dunst bet 260,000 with 8♦8♥, which Comeskey called with her flush draw. After Comeskey checked the A♦ river as well, Dunst shoved all in for 1,070,000 with his full house.
Comeskey spent some time in the tank, but eventually correctly folded her rivered pair to send the pot Dunst's way.
Josh Arieh raised to 60,000 from early position, and Archimedes Arenas called from the next seat.
The dealer spread the J♥10♥6♦ flop, and Arieh continued for 75,000. Arenas quickly called.
The 4♠ turn checked through before the 9♦ completed the board. Arieh fired 225,000, and Arenas took his time before making the call.
Arieh tabled K♦Q♣ for the nut straight to earn the pot, while Arenas revealed Q♠Q♦ for a pair of queens, blocking the nuts himself.
Ali Ayub quipped after the hand to the entire table, "You want to know something about the pros? In my 25 years of playing, they just always have it"
Will Givens bet 75,000 from the hijack on a flop of 10♥10♣2♥ and Sam Snead called in the big blind, as did Truong Nguyen in middle position.
"Wasn't expecting you," Givens said to Nguyen heading to the J♦ turn, where he bet another 300,000. Snead folded this time, but Nguyen stuck around and called to see the 6♥ river.
Givens then splashed in 1,000,000, and Nguyen quickly folded. Givens turned over A♥K♥ as he took the pot.
"That river doesn't come, I call you," Nguyen told him.
"What did you have? You won't even tell me what you had," Givens replied.
"It's common sense what I had. Why didn't you raise me preflop?" Nguyen added.
"Because I'm a gangster. Everyone loves me because I bring good energy," Givens said.
Antonio Galiana raised to 60,000 in early position and Bradley Guan called in the big blind.
The flop came 10♠7♣4♦ and Galiana continued for 65,000. Guan called, and they both checked the 6♦ turn.
The river was the A♣ and Galiana bet 260,000. Guan then raised to 700,000, and Galiana snap-called.
Guan turned over A♦10♥ for two pair, and Galliana mucked.
While this hand was in progress, tablemate DJ Sharma mentioned that he owns several McDonald's franchises back home in Canada. "Are you going to bring Happy Meals for everyone?" Jiacheng Li asked.
"If you guys come to Canada, I'll give you a Happy Meal," Sharma replied.
Philipp Hasenburger raised to 60,000 in the hijack. Alex Foxen called in the small blind, and Ryan Miller defended his big blind.
Foxen and Miller checked before Hasenburger continued for 55,000 on the 5♣2♣K♣ flop. Foxen then check-raised to 160,000, Miller cold-called, and Hasenburger also came along to the 7♥ turn.
Foxen checked, and Miller then jammed in his stack of 725,000. Hasenburger folded A♣J♠ and Foxen tanked for minutes on end before he called with the covering stack.
Ryan Miller: J♣10♣
Alex Foxen: 2♥2♦
The 10♥ river did not pair the board, doubling up Miller and leaving Foxen on fewer than 25 big blinds.
Marius Gicovanu raised to 65,000 in middle position and Daniel McGinnis three-bet to 190,000 in the hijack. Gicovanu then moved all in, and McGinnis snap-called.
Daniel McGinnis: A♥A♠
Marius Gicovanu: 9♦9♠
McGinnis had woken up with aces, and the 6♦6♣4♦5♥6♥ board offered no help to Gicovanu as McGinnis secured the double up.
The stacks were counted down, and Gicovanu barely had McGinnis' remaining 1,300,000 covered.
