In a blind-on-blind battle between Glen Wright and Hector Berry, the flop came down Q♦5♠2♦. Wright checked, Berry bet 350,000, Wright check-raised to 1,000,000, and Berry called.
On the 6♠ turn, Wright bet 2,000,000, Berry shoved all in for around 7,000,000, and Wright reluctantly let it go after a minute of thought.

It's been nothing but up for Kindah Sakkal after the three-table redraw. Just now, she raised 400,000 in middle position, Arlen Sarte three-bet to 800,000 from the small blind, and Sakkal called.
Sarte bet 500,000 on the 10♠5♠5♦ flop and Sakkal called. On the 3♣ turn, Sarte bet 750,000 and Sakkal quickly called again.
The river brought the 9♣ and Sarte emptied the clip with a bet of 1,000,000. Sakkal wasted no time and beat Sarte to the punch with a call.
Sarte showed A♥10♦ for top-top, but Sakkal had A♣5♣ for trip fives to soar over 11 million.
Action picked up preflop when Hector Berry raised to 400,000 from middle position. Yun Choi then went all in from the cutoff. Diogo Cardoso then four-bet all in from the button and Berry folded.
Yun Choi: A♣Q♠
Diogo Cardoso: 10♥10♣
The 6♥5♠10♠ flop put Cardoso firmly in the lead and after the 3♥4♠ turn and river Choi was eliminated.
On a J♣10♠4♦ flop, Eric Holtz bet 1,500,000, Glen Wright raised to 4,000,000, Holtz went all in, which was about the 4 million that Wright raised, and the quick call followed.
Eric Holtz: A♦J♠
Glen Wright: 4♥4♠
It was a setup for Holtz, who was officially eliminated after the 9♠ turn and 5♦ river.
Kindah Sakkal was on the button when Angelo Martelli went all in from under the gun. Yun Choi made the call and when action folded back to Sakkal she tanked before announcing all in for 2,845,000. Choi tanked for a while, with Sakkal whispering "clock?" before Choi eventually made the call.
The flop came out K♠J♦3♠ which secured Sakkal's lead and the 6♠A♥ run out sealed the deal. Martelli was eliminated, bringing the tournament to the three table redraw.
