On a flop of A♥J♦8♣, Daniel Geeng check-raised from 150,000 to 570,000 and then called the shove by Obst for 720,000 total.
James Obst: Q♣J♣J♠4♠ 
Daniel Geeng: Q♠Q♦8♥8♠
The 4♦ turn and 7♠ river kept Obst in the lead with the superior set and dented the large stack of Geeng.
Daniel Negreanu limped in from early position, and Benjamin Juhasz raised to 90,000 on the button. The action returned to Negreanu, who called.
The action checked down all the way on the 3♠6♠7♠3♥8♣ board, and Negreanu announced a straight, tabling Q♦10♠9♦9♣. Unable to beat that, Juhasz mucked his hand.
Stian Usterud was all in for 495,000 with the K♥K♠4♠2♠ and needed help, as Jeffrey Hakim revealed his double-suited A♦A♥8♦3♥.
The K♣8♥3♠J♦2♦ board came to the rescue as Usterud improved to a set of kings to leave Hakim on fumes.
On a four-way flop of A♣10♥3♦, Jason Mercier jammed for 150,000 in the big blind and was called by Jason Koon in the hijack and Juha Helppi in the cutoff. The 4♦ turn saw Koon bet 210,000 and Helppi call before the two active players checked down the 3♥ river.
"I'm gonna win the main pot," Mercier declared and rolled over the 10♦10♠9♠7♠ for tens full of treys.
His prediction was spot on as Koon's A♠Q♠4♥2♥ as well as the A♦K♦J♦4♣ of Helppi split the side pot.
Joao Simao potted to 185,000 out of the blinds and Tom Vogelsang called for them to see a flop of Q♥10♠5♠. Simao jammed the last 80,000 and Vogelsang instantly called.
Joao Simao: A♠K♠6♦3♦
Tom Vogelsang: Q♣J♦10♥8♥
"Okay guys we need spades," Simao said. They came on the 3♠ turn and 4♠ river for Simao to survive.
Anh Do put in his final 75,000 in the hijack and was looked up by Eelis Parssinen on the button.
Anh Do: A♣Q♣J♣6♥
Eelis Parssinen: A♥K♦6♣5♣
Do shot ahead on the 8♥8♠Q♥ flop, but Parssinen found a higher pair on the K♣ turn. The 2♦ river helped neither player, sending Do to the rail.
With the shortest stack in the tournament, Max Neugebauer raised to 40,000 under the gun, with just 10,000 left behind. Dylan Linde called in the hijack, and Adam Monaghan called in the big blind.
The action checked to Linde on the 7♥4♦J♥ flop, who bet 55,000. Monaghan called, and Neugebauer put his remaining 10,000 into the middle.
Both Monaghan and Linde checked on the K♠ turn, and the 8♣ completed the board. Monaghan checked for a third time and folded when Linde bet 80,000.
Neugebauer tabled J♣8♦3♦3♣, but his exit one shy of the money was confirmed as Linde flipped over A♥Q♦10♥9♠, good for the nut straight.
On a K♠K♥Q♠ flop, Jeremy Trojand checked out of the big blind, and Hani Mio followed suit in the cutoff. Trojand then bet 80,000 on the Q♣ turn, seeing his opponent call.
Trojand slowed down on the J♥ river, checking it over to Mio. Mio bet 140,000, and Trojand folded after a small tank.
"That was a nice flop for me," Mio said as he showed K♦Q♥ and raked in the pot.
In a limped pot without any action on the Q♠10♥4♥ flop, Sergio Martinez Gonzalez bet the 6♣ turn for 70,000 and Christopher Frank called in the cutoff. The Spaniard bet the 7♠ river for another 140,000 and Frank eventually paid it off, but couldn't beat the A♠10♣10♦6♥ for a set of tens by Martinez Gonzalez.
"You can't win the tournament yet," Bryce Yockey chimed in.
Martinez Gonzalez replied, "doesn't stop me from trying," with a smirk.
