On a flop of A♥A♠7♣, Robert Tryon in the big blind and Bruno Porto in the hijack checked to Alexander Tkatschew who bet 150,000.
Tryon then check-raised all-in for 755,000. He was called by Porto, while Tkatschew folded 9♥8♥.
Robert Tryon: A♦5♠ 
Bruno Porto: A♣K♣
Both players flopped trips, but Porto had a better kicker and the situation remained unchanged on the J♣ turn and 6♦ river so Tryon was eliminated.
Francesc Davila was all in for his last 1,300,000 from the small blind and up against Sean Marshall on the button.
Francesc Davila: A♦Q♠
Sean Marshall: A♠K♦
Davila was dominated heading to the flop, which came J♣4♦7♥. Marshall remained in the lead on the 6♥ turn, while the 10♠ fell on the river to send Davila to the rail.
Laurent Manderlier opened to 325,000 from early position, but Julio Trimmer in the small blind three-bet all-in for 2,420,000. Kristen Foxen in the big blind folded, and Manderlier called, finding himself at risk for 530,000.
Laurent Manderlier: Q♥J♦
Julio Trimmer: A♥Q♣
Trimmer flopped top pair on A♦10♦9♠7♦5♠ and sent Manderlier to the rail.
Fabiano Kovalski raised to 160,000 and Xuejun Huang three-bet to 450,000 on the button for Kovalski to come along. The Q♦8♠5♣ flop was checked by Kovalski, who then called a bet of 350,000 by Huang.
They checked down the 3♣ on the turn and Kovalski bet the 5♦ river for 325,000 to force a fold.
Picking up the action on a flop of 6♣9♦6♠, Brian Rast in the hijack bet 175,000 and Alexander Tkatschew in the big blind check-called.
On the 6♥ turn, Tkatschew checked. Rast asked for 325,000, and he was called.
The Q♠ river landed on the felt and after Tkatschew checked again, Rast checked back with A♥10♦. Tkatschew had 9♣8♣ for a full house and scooped the pot.
With around 450,000 chips in the pot on a flop of 10♣8♥K♥, Gaston Martinez had 445,000 chips laid out in front of him, which Andres Gonzalez called.
On the 3♦ turn, Martinez loaded another bullet and fired 1,200,000, which eventually got Gonzalez to fold.
Cairo Kadre opened to 160,000 from middle position and was called by Joseph Bold in the small blind and Nicholas Howard in the big blind for a three-way pot.
Action checked through on the 9♣Q♥5♦ flop and it was checked to Kadre again, who bet 135,000 on the 3♥ turn. Only Howard called.
The K♥ completed the board and Howard turned over 9♠8♣ for a pair of nines. Kadre sent his hand into the muck and Howard was sent the pot.
Joe Serock was being pushed a massive pot while Jangkyu Lee was waiting for a payout slip after a board of 3♥4♣J♣2♣K♥.
According to Serock, Hai Pham raised to 200,000 in the cutoff and Lee called in the small blind. Serock then three-bet to 760,000 in the big blind, Pham folded, and Lee four-bet to 1,500,000. Serock called.
Lee jammed on the flop and Serock called with A♣A♥. Lee could only show two nines and didn't find any miracles on the turn and river. The stacks were counted down and Serock had 2,300,000 remaining, barely covering Lee who was sent crashing out of the tournament.
"I saw you look back at the board when he shoved. Is there any board you wouldn't have called?" tablemate Russell Rosenblum said to Serock.
