Andre Marques got his last 45,000 or so all in preflop and was flipping for his tournament life against Alessio La Francesca.
Andre Marques: K♣9♦ 
Alessio La Francesca: 6♣6♦
Marques needed to improve to stay alive but that proved easier said than done as the board ran out an unhelpful 2♥4♣8♦Q♦10♥.
Marques hit the rail in 82nd place for $3,200.
Jose Scarano moved all in for 30,000 from the cutoff and Filip Fijacko called from the big blind.
Jose Scarano: K♣2♣
Filip Fijacko: K♦7♣
Fijacko had the better kicker and that's what made the difference after the board ran out 5♦6♠3♦10♠Q♥. Scarno finished in 84th place for $3,200.
Narcis-Gabriel Nedelcu opened under the gun before David Chen three-bet to 32,000 on the button, leaving just 1,000 behind. Nedelcu put in another raise and Chen called.
While waiting for the floor to give permission to run the hands, a conversation of insurance came up. Instead, Jovan Kenjic offered to buy 100 percent of Chen's action for $9,000. Chen thought about it for a moment and agreed to the deal as they shook hands.
"Wait, are you just not going to play well now?" Kenjic started to rethink his offer.
"No, I'll still play the same," Chen replied with confidence. "But, can I trust you not to freeroll me?"
"Look me up, I am Jovan Kenjic."
Eventually, they were allowed reveal their cards.
David Chen: A♣K♣
Narcis-Gabriel Nedelcu: A♥7♣
The J♦10♥4♦10♦10♠ runout meant Chen doubled to remain in the tournament, while the bubble burst at another table on the other side of the room.
Niveau: 15
Blinds: 3,000/6,000
Ante: 6,000
Only 86 players remain with 85 players making money, with a min-cash worth $3,200. The hand-for-hand portion of the tournament has begun.
Andrei Piatrushchanka opened 10,000 in the hijack and Lucas Foster defended the big blind.
Both players checked to the 9♣7♠6♦J♦ turn, and Foster checked once more. Piatrushchanka fired 15,000 across the line and Foster responded with a check-raise to 40,000. That was enough to earn the pot as Piatrushchanka mucked his hand.
Lewis Spencer opened 10,000 under the gun and Leonard Herrmann defended the big blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of 4♦3♥2♥, and both players checked to see the Q♦ turn. Herrmann led for 22,000 and Lewis called.
The 8♣ completed the board on the river and Herrmann fired 56,000. Lewis thought about it for a few moments while glancing at the clock. He then tossed in the call to see the Q♥10♥ of Hermann and tabled A♠Q♠ to win with a pair of queens, ace-kicker.

Vladimir Minko: A♥10♥
Belarmino De Souza: A♦Q♣
Minko was dominated and the A♣J♣6♦K♠K♦ runout was no help as he stood up from his seat.
