As Gonzalo Robles was eliminated, a three-way all-in situation happened on the other table.
Manjunath Mulinti open-jammed all in for 1,300,000. Kartik Ved, immediately to his left, tanked and took so much time that the clock was called on him.

Gonzalo Robles open-jammed all in from early position for 800,000. After action folded around, big blind Qing Sun made the call, taking them to showdown.

Qing Sun: 8♣8♠
