Level 39
: Blinds 1,000,000/1,500,000, 1,500,000 ante
Aaron Massey opened to 3,000,000 from early position holding K♦Q♣, and his only customer was Kevin Eyster, who flatted the bet from the cutoff with 8♠8♦.
Massey then continued for 1,700,000 on the 4♠5♣A♣ flop, which was called by Eyster, and the two both saw the 9♣ turn. Here, Massey slowed down with a check, and Eyster took the initiative with a bet of 8,000,000. It brought a quick fold from Massey.

: Blinds 1,000,000/1,500,000, 1,500,000 ante
Richard Alsup raised to 3,500,000 from middle position. Action folded around to Nikolaos Angelou, who announced all in, covering Alsup's near-50,000,000 stack. Alsup didn't wait for too long before making the call.
Richard Alsup: Q♦Q♣ 
Nikolaos Angelou: A♦K♥
It was the classic flip in a massive spot, and the 5♥4♣3♦ flop afforded some additional outs to Angelou in the form of a straight draw. The 3♠ turn changed nothing, with Alsup only having one card to fade in order to scoop a massive one.
The Q♠ river was overkill, as he improved to top boat, and breathed a sigh of relief as he raked in the near nine-figure pot.

Matthew Miller raised to 3,500,000 from under the gun and Arthur Teisseire moved all in for 23,000,000 from the cutoff. Andrew Moreno announced all in as well, for less than Teisseire.
Action folded to Miller, who asked for counts and talked to himself a little bit before making the call.
Andrew Moreno: A♣K♠
Arthur Teisseire: A♠10♠
Matthew Miller: Q♠Q♥
"Why you gotta speech me with queens?" Moreno asked, who was flipping for his tournament life. Miller found himself in a great spot to score two eliminations, despite having "thought about folding."
The flop came extremely safe for him, with neither of the other players connecting on 4♣2♦6♣. The 7♠ turn had him just a card away from securing a massive pot, and the 5♣ river brought his chip stack to almost nine figures as both of his opponents hit the rail.
Level 39
: Blinds 1,000,000/1,500,000, 1,500,000 ante
Kevin Eyster opened to 3,000,000 from the hijack before Paul Vang shoved for 17,300,000 on the button. Eyster quickly called to put Vang at risk.
Paul Vang: A♠Q♦
Kevin Eyster: K♥K♣
Vang needed to find an ace to stay alive, but it never came on the 7♠4♦10♦10♠J♠ runout to eliminate him in 12th place.
Vang earned $93,000 for his finish.
Level 39
: Blinds 1,000,000/1,500,000, 1,500,000 ante
Nikolaos Angelou moved all in from the hijack for 14,000,000, and She Wong called all in from the big blind with 6,600,000.
She Wong: A♥J♦
Nikolaos Angelou: A♦8♠
The dealer fanned out K♥7♦8♦10♠7♣, and two pair for Angelou would seal Wong's fate.
Level 39
: Blinds 1,000,000/1,500,000, 1,500,000 ante
Action was picked up on a flop of 2♥10♥8♦ with middle position opener Andrew Moreno and big blind defender Pierce Mckellar contesting the 8,500,000 chip pot. Action went check-check, which brought the A♦ turn.
Here, Mckellar checked a second time, and Moreno opted to slide 4,400,000 into the middle. Mckellar called, and the two saw a 7♥ fall on the river.
Action checked through again, and Mckellar showed his A♥8♠ had gotten the better of Moreno's 10♠9♠ on the turn,as the chips were sent in his direction.
"Interesting hand," Moreno commented.
Level 39
: Blinds 1,000,000/1,500,000, 1,500,000 ante
John Ripnick opened to 2,400,000 before Alen Bakovic shoved for 8,200,000 total. Ripnick called to put Bakovic at risk.
Alen Bakovic: A♣J♦
John Ripnick: A♦Q♠
Bakovic was in trouble, but the flop gave him some additional outs when it came 7♥8♦10♠ for a gutshot straight draw.
The A♥ turn kept Ripnick in the lead, and the K♣ river did not help Bakovic as he was eliminated in 14th place.
Bakovic earned $75,000 for his finish.
Level 39
: Blinds 1,000,000/1,500,000, 1,500,000 ante
Aaron Massey opened to 3,200,000 from the cutoff, before big blind Robert Georato moved all in for slightly more than 10,000,000. Massey shrugged and called.
Robert Georato: K♠K♣
Aaron Massey: K♥3♥
Massey was in just about the worst preflop spot possible, having only 10% equity to his name. However, this number increased to 36% on the Q♦7♥2♥ flop, as he picked up a flush draw. Georato managed to fade the massive sweat on the 9♣7♦ runout, as he lived to fight another day.
