Action folded to Event #3: $1,000 Mystery Millions winner Tyler Brown in middle position who limped for 10,000. It then made it to the button who raised to 45,000. The small blind folded and action was on Santhosh Suvarna in the big blind. He put in the pot sized bet to 150,000 with just a few chips back.

Action was back on Brown who did some accounting before repotting his full stack to 230,000. The button folded and Suvarna went all in for less.

Santhosh Suvarna: A♦A♥6♦9♦
Tyler Brown: K♦Q♥J♣10♣

The full board ran out 3♣2♣4♥8♣8♥ giving Brown a flush and sending Suvarna to the rail.

Level 14 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

On a heads-up river of 2♥6♥8♦J♦A♣, there was around 250,000 in the pot when Ky Nguyen checked over to his opponent Dylan Smith, who then set out a bet of 175,000.

Nguyen then went into the tank for a good while, using two of his time banks to debate this decision.

Before he used his third, Nguyen made the call but was then shown A♠J♥8♥3♦ by Smith for top two-pair and Nguyen mucked his hand.

Two hands later, Michael Russo opened to 27,000 and Smith three-bet to 94,000 and action folded back around to Russo who made the call.

Russo checked the flop of 3♥Q♥A♠ and Smith continued for 100,000. Russo went into the tank before making the call to see the 9♦ on the turn.

Russo checked once more and Smith announced pot for 417,000 and Russo shook his head and hastily mucked.

Dylan Weisman: K♦K♥6♥5♥
Jonathan Azoulay: A♦8♣6♣4♦

Azoulay's wrap made a pair on the A♣ turn but Weisman spiked a straight thanks to the 8♦ river.
