Sebastian Malec raised to 240,000 from the button and Stoyan Madanzhiev shoved for roughly 1,000,000 from the small blind. Ryan Mandara then jammed for 5,100,000 out of the big blind and after Malec folded, the cards were revealed.

Stoyan Madanzhiev: A♠7♦ All in
Ryan Mandara: A♥K♦

Madanzhiev needed to find a seven to stay in the hunt for the trophy. However, the board ran out J♥6♦10♦K♣6♠ to give Mandara the best hand with a pair of kings, and Madanzhiev was out in fourth.

Daniel Myers Eliminated in 7th Place ($135,200)

Level 29 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Jelle Moene raised to 200,000 from middle position and Daniel Myers shoved for 250,000 from the cutoff. Stoyan Madanzhiev then moved all in from the big blind with a stack that covered both players. Moene had around 1,800,000 remaining and after burning through a time bank card, made the call.

Daniel Myers: 2♥2♦ All in
Jelle Moene: A♦Q♥ All in
Stoyan Madanzhiev: A♠J♠

If Madanzhiev could find a jack, he would bust two players and the final table would be down to five players.

The dealer fanned out the flop of 5♦9♣J♥ to put Madanzhiev in the lead with top pair. The 3♠ turn didn't change anything, but the Q♣ on the river meant Moene had more than doubled up with a pair of queens. Myers was out, and Madanzhiev sent around half of his stack over to Moene.

Player	Chips	Progress
Jelle Moene	4,400,000 2,100,000	2,100,000
Stoyan Madanzhiev	2,200,000 -1,600,000	-1,600,000
Daniel Myers	Busted
