Gabriel Nastasa: 10♣10♦ All in
Tae Hoon Chang: A♣A♥ All in
Jordan Spurlin: J♥J♠ All in
Yuchung Chang: 8♦8♣

All four players had a pair, but the board of 3♦7♦2♠6♥Q♠ didn't improve any hand so Tae Hoon Chang scooped the main pot while Gabriel Nastasa, who had the shortest stack, was eliminated.

Cameron Bolton: 4♠4♣ All in
Ryan Riess: A♠K♠ All in
Ronald Sims: A♥A♣

The board was 9♥3♦8♥7♥6♠, no help to either all-in player. They were out, while Sims has managed to build a very nice stack early on.

Niveau 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Jason Mitchell: A♦10♣ All in
Barry Shulman: A♣Q♣

The board ran out with 7♣5♦2♠A♥6♥ and Shulman's kicker played for the win with the pair of aces.
