Pablo Melogno raised to 4,500 in the cutoff and Martin Zamani shoved the button for 51,000. Zachary Donovan called in the small blind for the last 16,000 and Melogno asked for a count, then called with the biggest stack of the trio.
Zachary Donovan: 
Martin Zamani: 
Pablo Melogno: 
"I am a big favorite," Zamani had joked before the cards were tabled and another player at the table replied, "make it a sweat." Indeed, the flop of brought a gutshot for the two ace-queens. However, the 
turn and river were blanks and Donovan was eliminated, Zamani more than doubled.

Chipleader Alexander Kharkov opened to 5,000 in early position, [Removed:510] three-bet to 22,000 from the small blind, Jacques Der Megreditchian four-bet shoved 92,000 from the big blind and Kharkov went in the tank. He folded after a minute of thought.
Trofimov needed no time to come to a decision and stuck calling chips in within a heartbeat.
Jacques Der Megreditchian: 
[Removed:510]:
The dealer fanned out 
to pair up Trofimov and eliminate Der Megreditchian. Kharkov watched it unfold with a sour look on his face and indicated to Trofimov he folded a big hand with a club in it.
"Lucky me!" the Platinum Pass winner laughed and Kharkov could muster a smile as well.

A raise to 20,000 was in front of Aleksandr Gofman with the flop showing 
and James Frangoulidis then moved all in for a total of 87,000. Gofman gave it some thought and folded.
"I would have done the same," Noah Schwartz said and Gofman said "I would have called you."
Frangoulis chimed in "you would have called him but not me? Come on," while dragging in the pot.
