Jack Nolan raised to 2,500 from middle position and the action folded to Oleksii Natoptanyi in the big blind, who made the defending call. The flop fell 4♥2♠8♦ and Nolan continued for 3,000 after a check from Natoptanyi.
Natoptanyi made the call and did so too when Nolan bet 4,000 more on the Q♥ turn. The 7♣ river then completed the board and Natoptanyi checked for a third time.
Nolan decided to put it all in, risking his stack of 16,600. Natoptanyi sat in the tank for a while before emerging with a call. Nolan showed J♥J♣ for a pair of jacks and Natoptanyi tried to muck his hand.
The dealer retrieved his K♣8♥ for a pair of eights, however, and the pot was sent Nolan's way, who acquired a full double up.

Samuel Polack and Julien Sitbon were seen leaving the tournament area together, as they were eliminated in a three-way all in and call situation.
According to Darius Merva who won the pot, he called from the small blind after Polack opened in the cutoff and Sitbon called on the button.
On a flop of Q♣J♦9♣, everybody checked to Sitbon who bet 2,500. Merva called, but Polack raised to 7,500. Then Sitbon decided to go all in for approximately 28,000. Merva called, and so did Polack, with his last 20,800 remaining chips.
Samuel Polack: K♦10♥
Julien Sitbon: A♣J♣
Darius Merva: Q♥10♣
Polack was in the lead with his flopped straight, but Sitbon still had a flush draw to win. However, Merva was lucky enough to hit a runner-runner full house thanks to the turn 9♠ and the river 9♦ to take this big pot.
