Archimedes Arenas raised to 210,000 in early position, Espen Sandvik moved all in for 2,700,000 from the big blind, and Arenas called.

Espen Sandvik: 3♠3♦ All in
Archimedes Arenas: 9♥9♠

"Wow!" tablemate Francisco Fragoso said as the 3♥ came in the window to give Sandvik a set, but it was followed by 9♦8♣ as Arenas also hit a set. The rest of the board ran out 6♣8♦, and Arenas stopped to snap a photo of the board while Sandvik got up to shake his hand before heading to the rail.

At the same time at another table, Andy Stacks and Blake Barousse were heads-up on a board of 6♥5♠A♠K♦ with around 1,000,000 in the pot. Stacks then bet another 1,000,000 on the button, Barousse moved all in from early position, and Stacks snap-called for 2,600,000.

Stacks turned over 5♥5♦ for a flopped set, but Barousse had turned a higher set with K♥K♠. The river was the 6♦ and "Andy Stacks" was sent to the rail.

Hattori picked up a host of outs on the 5♠9♠J♠ flop, although the 3♣ turn and 4♣ river provided no help.

Jason Blount: A♠4♣All in
Cade Lautenbacher: 6♦6♠

Daewoong Song opened to 200,000 from the cutoff, and Akihiro Konishi called on the button before David Kluchman three-bet to 1,300,000 from the small blind. With a big part of his stack already committed, Masato Yokosawa moved all in from the big blind for a total of 265,000.

Song responded by four-bet jamming for 2,785,000, causing Konishi to fold A♥10♥, while Kluchman snap-called.

Masato Yokosawa: Q♦9♠ All in
Daewoong Song: A♣K♦ All in
David Kluchman: K♠K♣

A board of 3♥J♥7♥5♦2♣ kept Kluchman's kings in the lead, so he sent both Yokosawa and Song to the rail.

Congya Zhang in middle position raised to 160,000. Han Feng in the hijack called before Tanner Pray in the cutoff moved all in for 435,000. Both Zhang and Feng called.

Zhang and Feng checked all the way through a board of 4♥A♥8♣9♣A♠, so all three players' cards went on their backs.

Tanner Pray: K♣10♣ All in
Han Feng: 6♥6♣
Congya Zhang: 7♥7♦

Pray had a flush draw on the turn, but the river didn't complete it, and he was eliminated.

Jason Kornegay and Merle Sauvola got their chips into the middle in what shaped up to be one of the most classic flips with near identical stack sizes.

Jason Kornegay: A♣K♠ All in
Merle Sauvola: Q♣Q♠

The board ran out A♥7♦4♠J♠K♣ and Kornegay doubled for 2,130,000, then exclaimed, "I got a date to destiny."

Sauvola was down to 145,000 and jammed the next hand, which Kyle Mart called in the cutoff.

Merle Sauvola: K♠J♦ All in
Kyle Mart: A♥6♠

The Q♦3♦2♥9♥7♣ runout spelled the end for Sauvola.

At the same time, one table over in the Gold section, Brock Wilson and Sam Snead were all-in preflop as well.

Sam Snead: K♦Q♥ All in
Brock Wilson: A♥8♦

The 8♥4♣2♥6♦9♥ board kept Wilson ahead all the way, and he also had Snead covered.

Anthony Lombard bowed out shortly after at the very end of the level as well.

Tianle Wang opened the action with a raise to 175,000, and it folded to Jose Rodriguez Zurita, who pushed all in. All players behind folded to Wang, who asked for a count. The shove was for 1,090,000 total, and Wang called.

Jose Rodriguez Zurita: Q♦Q♣ All in
Tianle Wang: K♥J♥
