In the first postflop hand of the heads up, Yuri Dzivielevski raised to 1,300,000 from the button and Paul Berger defended his big blind. The flop came K♥A♦9♦ and Dzivielevski put out a continuation-bet of 600,000, which Berger check-called.
Berger then checked again on the Q♦ river, but would fold when Dzivielevski upped the ante to 3,000,000 this time.
The next hand, Berger raised his button to 1,300,000 and Dzivielevski put out the first three-bet of the battle, to 3,500,000. Berger quickly folded and another pot was shipped the Brazlian's way.

Level 36
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Miguel Cardoso jammed his 2,900,000 stack in from under the gun and Yuri Dzivielevski made the call from the small blind with the covering stack.
Miguel Cardoso: A♠9♠
Yuri Dzivielevski: Q♠J♠
Cardoso had a slight lead but it vanished when the flop came 10♣J♣10♠. Cardoso's rail was rooting for an ace but it did not come on the 2♦4♦ runout and he was eliminated in fourth place, taking home a nice pay-out.

Level 36
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Action folded to Santiago Plante in the small blind who jammed. Michael Liang quickly called off in the big blind to put himself at risk and send both players to a runout.
Michael Liang: K♦J♣
Santiago Plante: A♠2♣
The flop came 10♣7♦8♣, keeping Plante in the lead, but when the K♠ hit the turn, the lead quickly changed.
As the dealer burned a card and started to put out the river, Plante's rail was screaming for an ace and when it appeared on the river in the form of the A♣, the lead swung back in Plante's direction, his rail went crazy and Liang was forced to stand and exit the tournament area in fifth place for $51,700.

Miguel Cardoso: Q♠10♣

With Kafton Ramsamooj's chips in the middle in the big blind, the action folded around to Santiago Plante in the small blind. The quick call was made, with Ramsamooj at risk and taking a first look at his holding.
Kafton Ramsamooj: 7♠3♦
Santiago Plante: K♣10♥
The 4♥Q♦J♥ was no help to Ramsamooj, while the 10♣ left him drawing dead after Plante made top pair. The 6♣ completed the board, as Ramsamooj made his exit in sixth place.

Level 35
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
In the previous level, Yuri Dzivielevski raised to 800,000 from the cutoff and Michael Liang defended the big blind after confirming the stack of his opponent.
The flop then came J♦7♠A♦ and Liang checked to Dzivielevski, who put out a bet of 450,000. Liang then sneakily check-raised to 1,100,000 and Dzivielevski made the call.
On the 5♣ turn, Liang shoved all in, covering Dzivielevski's 3,950,000 remaining chips. Dzivielevski snap called and both players' holdings were revealed.
Yuri Dzivielevski: A♣5♥
Michael Liang: J♣7♣.
Liang had flopped two pair, but Dzivielevski turned a higher two pair. The 10♥ river did nothing for either player's hand and Dzivielevski doubled up to an eight-figure stack, nearly half of the chips in play.
