Stephen Nahm opened to 650,000 and called when Dan Matsuzuki raised to 2,300,000. The flop of Q♣5♣2♥ saw Matsuzuki move all in and Nahm called.
Dan Matsuzuki: A♣K♣Q♦8♦
Stephen Nahm: Q♠10♣8♥7♠
Matsuzuki's kicker kept him ahead as the cards were turned over, but the 9♠ turn brought Nahm some additional outs. The 10♥ river gave Nahm two pair, ending Matsuzuki's run in fifth place.

After doubling up on the previous hand, Ronald Keijzer was facing an open to 600,000 from Kevin Rand. Keijzer did not take long to announce a pot-sized bet for almost all of his remaining chips. Rand moved all in and Keijzer committed his remaining stack.
Ronald Keijzer: A♥Q♣J♥10♦
Kevin Rand: A♠A♦10♥7♠
The monotone J♠5♠10♠ flop improved Rand to a flush, while the 5♣ turn and 8♣ river completed the board as Keijzer bowed out in sixth place.

The short stack at the table, Zachary Peay, got all his chips in the middle against Ronald Keijzer and Stephen Nahm, who was on the button.
Zachary Peay: A♣4♣A♥3♠
Ronald Keijzer: A♦J♦7♠8♠
Stephen Nahm: K♠J♥J♠10♥
"I have the winning hand!", is what Nahm yelled to his rail when cards were on their backs. This was proved incorrect as the board ran out 4♥6♣K♦A♠2♣.
This was a massive triple up for Peay, catapulting him back into contention. Keijzer won a small side pot but is now the short stack at the table.

Amir Mirrasouli limped from early position and was joined by Dan Matsuzuki on the button. Ronald Keijzer and Stephen Nahm called from the blinds to see the 9♠9♦3♦ flop.
Keijzer and Nahm checked to Mirrasouli, who fired 500,000. Matsuzuki folded while Keijzer and Nahm both made the call.
All three players then checked the Q♣ turn with Keijzer following suit after the 6♣ river. Nahm slid out a bet of 700,000 which was called by Mirrasouli before Keijzer folded.
Nahm tabled 10♠9♥6♠5♣ for a full house, adding to his stack as Mirrasouli mucked his hand.

Stephen Nahm limped under the gun for 250,000 and was called by Amir Mirrasouli to his left, Zachary Peay, and both blinds.
The flop came 9♥4♠2♠ and all five players checked, bringing the K♠ and another round of checks. The river was the 8♥ and this prompted Nahm to lead for 300,000. Mirrasouli quickly called, as did Peay.
Nahm tabled Q♠10♠9♣J♦, declaring the second nuts. "So nice, paid off twice!", said Nahm, who was indeed awarded the pot.
Shortly after, Peay raised in early position to 875,000 which prompted Nahm to say, "Whoa, calm the fuck down, brother.", in reference to the larger sizing of his raise. It folded to Nahm in the big blind, who informed the dealer he needed to hit before putting in the call.
The spread the Q♦2♥8♥ and both players checked. When the 7♦ peeled they did the same. Finally, the 6♣ came on the river and Nahm threw out a bet of 975,000. Peay quickly folded and Nahm sprinted to the restroom again after being awarded the pot. He's had approximately ten beers now.

Ronald Keijzer raised to 500,000 on the button and saw calls from Stephen Nahm in the small blind and Amir Mirrasouli in the big blind.
The blinds checked the Q♠4♦6♥ flop before Keijzer continued for 675,000. Nahm folded while Mirrasouli called to see the 5♥ turn.
Both players checked to the 2♦ river, where Mirrasouli tapped the table once more. Keijzer slid out a bet of 1,350,000 and Mirrasouli counted his stack and took a moment before making the call.
"You got it" said Keijzer, with Mirrasouli showing K♠Q♣10♣6♦ for two pair to take down a nice pot.
