Nikita Kuznetsov opened 40,000 under the gun, and both Carlos Ribeiro and Alex Keating came along in the blinds.
The dealer fanned a flop of A♥8♠7♣, and once checked to, Kuznetsov continued for 45,000. Only Keating called.
The 7♦ fell on the turn, and Keating check-folded to a bet of 160,000.

Vladas Tamasauskas opened to 40,000 from early position, only to be faced with a three-bet from Robin Ylitalo to 125,000 in the cutoff.
Action folded back to Tamasauskas, who pondered his options before announcing a four-bet to 290,000.
Ylitalo wasted little time in announcing he was all-in, and Tamasauskas got his chips in the middle just as quickly, with Tamasauskas at risk.
Vladas Tamasauskas: A♣A♠
Robin Ylitalo: A♦K♠
In one of the first hands of Day 3, Ylitalo had the misfortune of running ace-king straight into Tamasauskas' aces, with no unlikely escape provided by the Q♥9♠9♣7♣5♠ runout.
Tamasauskas raked in a huge pot to start off the day.

Michael Jozoff was seen with 380,000 across the line, and Alexander Tkatschew announced all-in. Jozoff went into the tank with his 40,000 behind, using his time banks. The floor came over to give him a warning as he was using the time banks to try to ladder-up for a pay jump. Eventually, he made the call.
Michael Jozoff: A♣K♠
Alexander Tkatschew: K♦K♣
Jozoff couldn't find an ace as the 7♦7♠3♦9♦Q♥ board ran out, eliminating him from the tournament.
