Level 35 : Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante

Yuhan Wang raised to 1,600,000 from the button and Christophe Vincent three-bet jammed from the small blind for 21,025,000. Once the big blind folded, Wang called for his stack of 9,325,000.

Yuhan Wang: A♦Q♦ All in
Christophe Vincent: J♦10♦

Vincent made a move with jack-ten and Wang held the best hand for now with ace-queen. Wang needed a safe runout to double through Vincent.

Neither player was able to improve on the 5♣2♠5♥K♦9♠ runout, which meant Wang doubled up to 20,000,000, while Vincent was down to just under 12,000,000.

Level 35 : Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante

Gal Naim raised the button to 1,600,000 and Yuhan Wang defended his big blind.

Both players checked the K♠3♠2♠ flop to see a 10♥ hit the turn. Wang checked again, and Naim bet 1,100,000. Wnag tanked for a while, then decided to check-raise to 3,700,000. Naim wasn't going anywhere as he continued in the form of a call.

When the 6♦ completed the board, Wang meticulously gathered together a bet of 12,000,000, which Naim quickly called.

Wang revealed the nut flush with A♠8♠ to win the huge pot and leave Naim, who had rivered a set of sixes with 6♠6♣, as the table short-stack.

Gal Naim shoved from under the gun for 5,975,000 and Christophe Vincent called in the big blind.

Gal Naim: A♠6♦ All in
Christophe Vincent: Q♠Q♦

Naim's situation went from bad to worse as he was on the brink of elimination in the space of a few hands. An ace is what Naim needed, but he never got it as the 5♠2♥J♥K♠6♣ runout meant he was out in fourth.

Level 36 : Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante

Christophe Vincent opened to 3,500,000 from the small blind and Stanislav Koleno shoved the big blind. Vincent called off his stack of 18,100,000.

Christophe Vincent: Q♦J♠ All in
Stanislav Koleno: A♥Q♣

Vincent was at risk and dominated with his queen-jack, and despite making top pair on 10♥Q♥10♦, he still trailed as Koleno had a bigger kicker. An 8♣ added a gutshot for Vincent, but he was sent to the rail in third when the 5♦ dropped on the river.
