David Coleman raised to 18,000 in middle position and was called by Samuel Mullur in the cutoff, Ben Heath in the small blind, and Eelis Parssinen in the big blind.
The flop came 2♣4♠3♦ and it checked to Parssinen, who bet 25,000. Coleman called, and Mullur made it 90,000 to go, prompting Heath and Parssinen to step aside. Coleman thought for a brief moment before deciding to get out of the way as well.
Heads-up on a flop of 7♦5♦7♥, Thomas Boivin in middle position bet 12,000 but Alex Foxen in the big blind check-raised to 60,000. Boivin made the call.

Moments later, Artur Martirosian and Kristen Foxen both entered the tournament.

Both players checked to the 5♦ river, where Mateo bet 140,000. Sturm took some time to think through his decision before flicking in the call.
Mateos tabled 10♣9♣ for a full house, fives full of nines, to take down the pot.
Adrian Mateos opened to 18,000 from the button and Daniel Negreanu defended from the big blind.
Mateos continued for 16,000 on the 5♣K♠6♥ flop. Negreanu check-called and checked the 8♠ turn. Mateos checked back.
Negreanu led out for 15,000 on the 10♠ river. Mateos quickly made the call. "I was hoping for you to call because I have the nuts," Negreanu said while flipping over A♠6♠ to win the pot.
Leon Sturm joined the table after this hand.
Aleksejs Ponakovs raised to 18,000 in the hijack and Dejan Kaladjurdjevic three-bet jammed for 54,000 in the big blind to put himself at risk. Ponakovs made the call.

Heads-up on a board of 8♣8♦7♦10♦ with 80,000 in the pot, Jason Koon on the button bet 52,000. Emilien Pitavy under the gun check-raised to 144,000 and Koon called.

Foxen and Willson checked again on the 3♠ river, and the trio tabled their cards. Foxen turned over 7♠7♦, besting the 4♥4♦ of Wilson to claim the side pot, while Kaladjurdjevic showed J♣2♣ for a pair of jacks to earn the much-needed triple up.
Gus Hansen, for the first time since 2011, is at a World Series of Poker (WSOP) final table, where he's attempting to end a lengthy bracelet drought.
The popular poker boom era high roller reached the final six players in Event #38: $10,000 Limit Hold'em Championship. At last check, he was among the shortest stacks. But if he were to go on and spin it up, he'd win his second bracelet and first since 2010.
