Matthew Schiavo moved all in for 550,000 from the small blind. The big blind thought for some time, eventually deciding they were priced in to call.
Matthew Schiavo: Q♠8♦
Big Blind: 9♥4♦
Schiavo was ahead but the big blinds weak holding still had two live cards. The flop landed 6♦2♠Q♣ to pair Schiavo. The 4♠ turn brought a small sweat but the 6♥ river doubled Schiavo.

Action was picked up with two players all in and Joshua Hatfield at risk for 2,175,000.
Joshua Hatfield: 8♠8♦
Opponent: A♦A♣
Hatfield ran into it when his opponent had aces, but when the flop came 8♣2♦3♦ Hatfield jumped into the lead with his set of eights. But the turn flipped the script again after the A♠ hit the felt. But once the 8♥ came on the river the table erupted in screams, as Hatfield improved to quad eights to crack the aces full of his opponent and doubled up.
A player from the cutoff raised to 320,000 and was called by Brian Stine on the button. Then the small blind three-bet to 840,000. The cutoff folded, and Stine made the call.
After the A♠2♣2♠ flop, the small blind bet 800,000 before Stine raised to the player all in for 1,800,000. The small blind snap called and was at risk for his tournament life.
Small Blind: A♣10♦
Brian Stine: A♥Q♦
The small blind was out kicked by Stine. He was not able to improve on the turn or river and was eliminated.
The button raised to 375,000 and George Dolofan three-bet jammed for 1,960,000 from the small blind. The button received a count and made the call.
George Dolofan: K♦K♣
Button: A♦K♠
The board ran out 4♦7♥3♥Q♦4♣; Dolofan's opponent couldn't materialise an ace to send him to the rail, doubling him up.
Oleksii Ievchenko raised to 325,000 from under the gun and the action folded all the way around to the big blind who shoved all in for around 3,000,000. Ievchenko started the hand with around 2,200,000 and after some careful consideration, he made the call.
Oleksii Ievchenko: 9♠9♣
Big Blind: A♥10♦
Ievchenko was made to sweat as the flop of J♦8♥K♣ gave his opponent a flush draw, but both the 3♥ turn and 7♠ river were safe for the Ukranian player meaning he doubled up.
