Renat Bohdanov was all in for 5,175,000 and Adrian Mateos was the one to put him at risk. The cards were already on their backs and the dealer was ready for a runout.
Renat Bohdanov: A♥7♣
Adrian Mateos: A♣10♠
The board ran out 6♠7♥3♠3♥9♣ and Bohdanov flopped a pair of sevens to secure another double.
Action folded to Arunas Sapitavicius in the cutoff who raised to 1,000,000 only to see Artur Martirosian jam for roughly 4,000,000. Sapitavicius decided to put in the call to set up a runout with Martirosian at risk.
Artur Martirosian: Q♣Q♠
Arunas Sapitavicius: A♦6♠
The board ran out 6♦K♣A♥2♥10♥, leaving Martirosian second best and sending him to the rail in 11th place for $164,900.
Niveau: 27

The remaining 11 players have been sent on their final 15-minute break of the evening. They will play one more level or down to six players when they return.
Damian Salas opened to 800,000 in the cutoff and Adrian Mateos defended out of the big blind.
Mateos checked on the flop of 2♠8♥K♣ and Salas continued for 600,000. Mateos called. Mateos checked again on the 9♣ turn and Salas checked back.
Mateos checked once more on the 6♣ river and Salas checked back. Mateos showed A♥2♥ for a pair of deuces, but it was no good against the 7♠7♦ of the 2020 Main Event champion.
Matthew Stumpf opened to 800,000 in the cutoff and Damian Salas defended the big blind.
The dealer fanned out the A♠10♣9♦ flop and Salas check-called for 600,000.
The 4♦ turn was checked to the 5♣ river and Salas bet out 2,025,000. Stumpf used multiple time extensions but ultimately sent his cards into the muck.
Renat Bohdanov raised to 800,000 from the button and Daniel Smiljkovic called from the big blind. The flop was 8♥A♣4♠ and Smiljkovic checked. Bohdanov bet 1,600,000 and Smiljkovic called to see 2♣ on the turn.
Smiljkovic check-called again on the turn, this time for 4,100,000, and the river was 8♠.
For a third time, Smiljkovic checked and Bohdanov went into the tank. After he used one time bank he announced 11,000,000 — enough to put Smiljkovic all in. Smiljkovic called without much hesitation and turned over A♠3♠ for a pair of aces. Bohdanov showed the dusty K♣7♣ and send most of his chips over to the German.
Action folded to Damian Salas in the small blind who jammed to put Ivan Luca to a decision for his shorter stack. Luca checked his cards and paused briefly before calling off his stack to put himself at risk and send he and Salas to a runout.
Ivan Luca: A♥10♥
Damiam Salas: K♦3♦
Luca was in good shape to lock up a much needed double, but when the flop came down 6♣K♥7♣, that all changed as Luca was now in need of some help to survive.
The turn brought the 5♣ and when the board completed with the K♣ river, Luca stood up to make his exit in 12th place for $132,800.
