Yueqi Zhu found himself all in for his last 30,000 soon after the bubble burst and up against Grzegorz Derkowski.

Big O

Rodney Assous raised to 20,000 from early position and was called by an opponent to his immediate left. Jim Collopy, in the small blind, then potted to 60,000 and Assous stuck in his last chips, as did the other opponent.

Jim Collopy: A♥K♠K♥Q♦J♦

The board ran out Q♥5♥9♦Q♣7♠ and Assous finished with a straight to beat Collopy's trip queens. He doubled up off the bracelet winner, while Collopy took the side pot to send his other opponent to the rail as the bubble boy.

Niveau 18 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Omaha Hi-Lo

Daniel Chio raised from the cutoff and Kristopher Townsend called from the small blind only to see Travis Pearson three-bet from the big blind.

Chio tossed in a four-bet and got called by both Townsend and Pearson to set up a three-way flop of 9♦8♣9♣. Townsend checked to Pearson who bet. Chio went all in and was called by both Townsend and Pearson to head to a 7♣ turn card with Chio at risk.

Townsend check-called a bet from Pearson, prompting the dealer to put the 7♥ out on the river.

Action checked through and Pearson turned over the A♦10♣4♦2♣ for the flush. Townsend tabled the A♣K♥9♥3♥, good for three nines but not good enough to get scooped by Pearson as Chio tossed his cards into the muck and exited the tournament area.

Big O

James Woods and Kosei Ichinose were heads-up on a board of 2♣5♦K♦9♠9♠ as Ichinose had a bet of 40,000 in front of him.

Woods tanked for a moment before announcing a call, turning over A♣K♥K♠7♥2♦ for a full house. Ichinose mucked his hand as Woods took down the big pot.

"You had a set of fives, right," Woods asked Ichinose after the hand.
