On the 10♠3♠4♦ flop, Todd Brunson checked from the big blind. Thomas Macdonald then bet 400,000 in middle position, seeing Shreesh Hebbar call in the cutoff.
Brunson had other plans and moved all in for a massive 4,150,000. Macdonald spent a while in the tank, but folded once the clock was called on him. Hebbar immediately followed suit, shipping the pot to Brunson.
Bryn Larkman raised to 400,000 in the small blind, Dan Stavila moved all in for 2,500,000 in the big blind, and Larkman called.
Dan Stavila: K♥Q♠ 
Bryn Larkman: A♥K♣
Larkman had Stavila dominated and at risk as the flop came 10♠8♥6♥. The A♠ turn gave Larkman top pair, while Stavila was left looking to complete a straight draw to stay alive. He missed the 4♥ river, and Stavila was sent to the rail.
Kenneth Asher raised to 240,000 in the hijack, Patrick Leonard moved all in from the small blind, and Asher called for 3,000,000.
Kenneth Asher: 8♣8♥
Patrick Leonard: A♣9♣
"Whatever happens, it's been fun," Asher said heading to the flop, which came 10♦9♥5♦ to give Leonard the lead. The rest of the board ran out 5♠K♦, and Asher was sent to the rail.
"Let me take a picture in case I never come back," Asher said.
"You had a very good run," Zhao Liu told him.
"I can't complain. I won quite a few of those. Now I can go golfing," Asher added as he went around the table to shake everyone's hand. Leonard then came over and gave Asher a big hug as he offered a few words of condolence.
Zhao Liu raised to 240,000 in middle position, Carlos Chadha moved all in for 1,475,000 on the button, and Liu called.
Carlos Chadha: J♣J♥
Zhao Liu: A♦Q♥
The 3♦5♦2♥ flop gave Liu a straight draw to go with his two overcards. "That's as sweaty as could be," Chadha said, but his jacks held on through the 5♣ turn and 8♣ river to earn him a double-up.
"I needed that sweat to feel alive," Chadha said.
"You didn't feel alive? You needed that sweat today?" Kenneth Asher asked him.
"I'm dead inside," Chadha replied.
Heads up to the 10♦6♦K♣ flop, Bradley Guan checked from the small blind to Lucas Jumalon under the gun, who bet 300,000. Guan then raised to 1,000,000, and Jumalon three-bet to 1,640,000.
Guan called after some thought, after which he checked the 10♥ turn. Jumalon moved all in, covering Guan's stack of 3,225,000.
Guan went deep into the tank, but ultimately folded his hand. Jumalon allowed Guan to pick one of his cards to show, and Guan opened the Q♣.
"I had ace-jack of diamonds," Guan bemoaned, "but no balls to call."
In table chat, Jumalon would later claim he had a king of diamonds with his queen of clubs and was jamming for value.
Wesley Fei raised to 250,000 in the hijack and Virgile Turchi called in the cutoff. Lauri Saaskilahti then three-bet to 850,000 on the button.
Fei, covering his face with his hoodie, spent a few minutes in the tank before moving all in for 3,280,000. He then buried his face on the rail of the table while Turchi quickly folded. "I don't have a good hand, but I think it must be better than you," Saaskilahti said.
"The only thing we know is you don't have aces," Zhao Liu added.
"I do have one ace," Saaskilahti said. He took off his sunglasses and tanked for a few more minutes until calling.
Wesley Fei: K♠K♦
Lauri Saaskilahti: A♦7♦
Fei was ahead with his kings, while Saaskilahti hit a pair on the 10♠7♥2♠ flop to get some additional outs. The 4♦ turn was safe for Fei as he was one card away from a double-up, but Saaskilahti spiked the 7♣ on the river.
"Wesley, you died a hero," Liu told Fei.
"At least we made the pay jump," Fei said with a laugh as the clock had ticked down below 90 players just as the hand was playing out. He then snapped a photo of the board.
Fei reminded the table that he had cracked two queens earlier with the same ace-seven. "Karma," he said.
"Don't do that to me. Only to Wesley," Liu told Saaskilahti.
Blinds: 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante:
Caitlin Comeskey was in middle position when she raised to 800,000, keeping only 25,000 behind. Allan Sannier in the hijack three-bet and Comeskey called.
Caitlin Comeskey: A♠J♦
Allan Sannier: K♣K♥
Comeskey ran into kings and was eliminated on 5♠9♥4♥3♥J♣.
Farid Jattin raised to 800,000 with just 50,000 behind and Cade Lautenbacher called in the small blind.
The flop of K♥6♣9♦ checked through and both players checked again on the A♥ turn. Lautenbacher then jokingly announced a bet of 5,000,000 on the 7♥ river and Jattin called with his remaining 50,000.
Farid Jattin: A♦9♠
Cade Lautenbacher: K♠Q♠
After Lautenbacher showed a pair, Jattin turned over two pair, smacking the table with all his might, twice, in celebration, leading to a warning from both the floor and dealer.
"We are in the Colosseum. Are we allowed to celebrate and be happy?" Jattin said facetiously, smacking the table one more time for good measure before getting up and throwing up a Breakfast Club fist pump in celebration.
Blinds: 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante:
Mario Boos in the hijack opened to 200,000. Brian Roelke in the cutoff three-bet all in for 2,515,000 and Boos called.
Brian Roelke: 8♠8♥
Mario Boos: Q♠Q♣
Roelke ran into a better pair and failed to improve on a board of 6♥J♠7♣2♣K♠.
Blinds: 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
At the feature table, Shaun Deeb opened to 200,000 from under the gun with A♦J♥. Hossein Ensan in the small blind three-bet to 500,000, then Michael Nugent in the big blind four-bet to 1,400,000. Deeb folded but Ensan jammed for 3,420,000. Nugent snap-called with a slightly bigger stack.
Hossein Ensan: A♠A♥
Michael Nugent: K♠K♥
The dealer fanned a board of 5♣4♣4♠9♦10♦ and the 2019 WSOP Main Event champion doubled up.
