The 3♠ river paired the board, and Safwane Bahri led out with a bet of 105,000. Yuhan Wang took his time, burning through two time bank cards before raising to 900,000. Bahri used three of his time bank cards before folding, letting Wang scoop the pot.

Nizar Comaty raised from the cutoff before Diogo Duarte jammed for 1,030,000 from the button. The blinds folded, putting the action back on Comaty. A few timebanks went to the dealer, and after over a minute of thinking time, Comaty called.
Diogo Duarte: 6x6x
Nizar Comaty: A♣10♠
Duarte faded Comaty's overcards, and doubled up after the 7♠7♥2♠4♦5♥ runout.
That left Comaty with just 30,000 and he was all-in and at risk to Vasileios Panagiotidis the following hand.
Nizar Comaty: 8♥7♦
Vasileios Panagiotidis: 9♦9♣
Comaty left his chair after the Q♥3♦2♦ flop but he went runner-runner, making two pair to survive after the 8♦ turn and 7♣ river.

Marc Delimal opened to 80,000 from the early position and found two callers in Nenad Cvetkovic on the button and Chris Hunichen in the big blind.
All three players checked the 6♦A♣8♦ flop.
On the 8♥ turn, Hunichen checked, and Delimal bet 175,000. Cvetkovic folded, but Hunichen called to see the river.
The A♠ completed the board, and Hunichen checked again. Delimal decided to check back, leading to a showdown where Hunichen showed A♥9♥ for a full house, which was enough to take the pot as Delimal mucked.

Antonio Guimaraens raised to 80,000 from early position before Chongxian Yang three-bet to 250,000 from the button. Guimaraens jammed for 1,465,000, and after some thinking time, Yang called as the slightly bigger stack.
Antonio Guimaraens: A♠A♦
Chongxian Yang: A♣K♠
Yang paired up on the K♥9♠6♠ flop to have some hope, but it was Guimaraens who celebrated after his rockets held up after the 9♣ turn and 10♦ river.
Moments later on another table, Dragoljub Martinovic had his stack in the middle and was at risk to Onur Gizir.
It was another aces versus ace-king showdown, and Martinovic sealed the double up on the turn, to double-up.

Benjamin Chalot opened to 80,000 from the hijack. Action folded to Chaofei Wang in the small blind, who moved all in for 570,000. Daniele Sacchi in the big blind took some time before announcing his all-in for around 760,000. Chalot stepped aside, and the two went to showdown.
Chaofei Wang: 4♦4♠
Daniele Sacchi: 10♥10♦
Wang needed help from the board to stay in the tournament, but the runout of A♦9♣8♦K♥9♥ gave him nothing. Sacchi’s tens held, sending Wang to the rail and adding more to his stack.
