Aylar Lie raised to 22,000 in the hijack, Ranei Obarzanski moved all in for 156,000 in the small blind, and Lie called.

Ranei Obarzanski: A♣K♥ All in

Level 6 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

With 275,000 already in the middle the turn read Q♦6♦2♥5♦, and Faraz Jaka checked from the big blind to Jim Collopy who fired 85,000. Jaka took a few moments and made the call.

The dealer dropped the 7♣ on the river and Jaka checked it over to Collopy who asked to see Jaka's stack before splashing 375,000 across the line, which was enough to put Jaka to the test for his remaining 247,000. Jaka went into the tank for about a minute before deciding on a call.

Collopy rolled K♠Q♠ for top pair and Jaka stood up from his seat as his 10♦10♠ was turned face up.

Level 6 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Nicolas Chouity raised to 22,000 in middle position before Paulo Mendez moved all in for around 250,000 on the button. Loan Phan stuck in her last 160,000 in the big blind, while Chouity gave it some thought but ultimately decided to fold.

Loan Phan: K♦10♦ All in
Paulo Mendez: 10♠10♣

"She saved me. I had a smaller pair," Chouity said as the flop came 6♦4♣2♣. Chouity let out a loud groan and admitted he would've made a set. The board ran out 2♥A♠ and Mendez took the pot to send Phan to the rail.

"She saved you. Play the rush," Chouity lamented after the hand.

Level 4 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

There was already around 270,000 in the middle as Jeff Berwick and Christian Dressler saw a flop of 4♥3♠10♥. Dressler then bet 55,000 from the big blind and Berwick took a few minutes before calling in the small blind.

The turn was the 9♠ and Dressler moved all in for 160,000. Berwick snap-called and turned over 9♣9♥ for a set.

"Wow," Dressler said, showing Q♥Q♠ as the 6♥ fell on the river to seal his elimination.

"You bet so small. If you bet a little larger, I fold," Berwick told him as Dressler wished his tablemates luck before heading for the exit.

Level 4 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

With around 90,000 in the pot on a flop of 10♥6♠5♥, Josh Arieh bet 25,000 from middle position and Koray Korkmaz called under the gun.

The turn was the J♦ and Arieh bet another 100,000. Korkmaz again called and the Q♦ fell on the river. Arieh then moved all in for 200,000 and Korkmaz practically beat him into the pot.

Arieh turned over A♣2♣ for a bluff and was already walking away from the table as Korkmaz showed A♦K♣ for the rivered straight to win the pot and send Arieh to the rail.

Level 4 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Heads up on a flop of 4♥8♠10♠, Panagiotis Gavriilidis bet 60,000 from the hijack and Victor Chong called in the small blind.

The turn was the 5♠ and Gavriilidis moved all in for 160,000. Chong snap-called with A♣A♠, but Gavriilidis had K♠Q♠ for a flush.

The 9♠ fell on the river and Gavriilidis shot out of his seat after Chong improved to the nut flush, letting out a few choice words in his native language before snapping a photo of the board and heading for the exit.

"You know what the odds were of hitting that spade?" tablemate Eric Afriat said to Chong.

"Very low," Chong replied with a smile.

Dumitru Pora: A♥K♣ All in
