Aditya Systla had previously lost more than half his stack and then got in preflop what he had left, seven blinds, with K♦J♣. Artem Metalidi had him dominated with the A♥K♠ and the ace-high remained in the lead all the way on a Q♠8♦5♣9♣5♦ runout.
"Let's goooo!" Liran Betito screamed from the top of his lungs after being heads up against Timothy Faro on a flop of 8♠4♣3♣ when the A♣ fell on the turn.
Faro was all in with the Q♣7♣ for a flush, but Betito, with the K♣8♣, had the nuts. That made the 9♥ river a formality as Faro was sent to the payout desk.
Christian Harder was moved over to table 622 after the one seat was ousted by Liran Betito. Soon after that, he flipped against Betito in a preflop contest.
Christian Harder: A♥K♣
Liran Betito: 4♦4♣
The board ran out 10♥6♥4♥7♥10♦ and Betito rivered a full house for the win.
Viliyan Petleshkov then clashed in a large flip with Ryan Tosoc, the other big stack at the table.
Viliyan Petleshkov: J♠J♦
Ryan Tosoc: A♥K♣
This time, ace-king came out on top. With a board running out K♠3♣3♦A♦9♠ Tosoc became one of the biggest stacks in the field.
Tim Van Loo raised to 225,000 with Q♠Q♦ and Masato Yokosawa called holding 10♥9♥. Chris Lee, with J♠J♦, then moved all in from the button for 1,440,000 and Daniel Weinman called with A♠K♠ in the big blind. Van Loo also called with his queens, while Yokosawa folded.
The flop came 9♠A♥A♣ and Weinman led out for 800,000. Van Loo called to create a side pot as the 6♣ fell on the turn, where Weinman bet another 1,250,000.
Van Loo folded this time, and Weinman's trip aces took out Lee's jacks once the 8♣ completed the board on the river.
Vitor Bengozi moved all in for his last 1,330,000 from middle position before Ping Liu re-jammed on the button. The blinds got out of the way to put Bengozi officially at risk.
Vitor Bengozi: 9♦9♠
Ping Liu: J♠J♦
Bengozi was in rough shape and found no help on the 2♥4♣10♠ flop. The J♣ turn ended things abruptly prior to the inconsequential Q♠ river to bring Bengozi's deep run to a close.
Nikita Luther was all in for her last 2,285,000 in the small blind and up against Andrew Hulme in middle position.
Nikita Luther: A♣K♥
Andrew Hulme: A♠Q♥
Luther had Hulme dominated and was a favorite to double up as the flop came 5♦5♣2♥. The turn, though, brought the Q♦ and Hulme came from behind to leave Luther a card away from elimination.
The 9♥ fell on the river and Luther was sent to the rail, leaving Estelle Cohuet as the last woman remaining.
Sachin Joshi opened to 220,000 from under the gun before Andrew Dea made it 650,000. Mark Teltscher asked Dea how much he had behind and after it was confirmed, the Brit opted to fold.
Action folded back to Joshi, who decided to give his opponent some respect and open-folded his A♦10♦.
"Pretty hand," said Joshi as he tossed his cards in the muck.
As the hand was playing out, Dea asked Estelle Cohuet if she was the last woman standing. Joshi pointed out Nikita Luther was also still in. However, as he finished his sentence, the elimination of Luther was confirmed over the loudspeaker.
The table congratulated Cohuet on being the final remaining woman in the Main Event. However, she noted that she didn't just want to be the last woman standing, but the last player standing.
Cohuet is a force to be reckoned with as she was one of the winners in Winamax's Top Shark event.
Picking up the action at the end of the hand, Artem Metalidi had just called off his stack on a board reading Q♦6♥7♣5♠4♣ against Joshua Payne. His call was no good, as Payne held A♥A♠ to send his opponent to the rail and send his own chip count soaring up the leaderboard.
Elsewhere, Alejandro Perez also was seen heading to the exits.
Tony Dunst raised to 250,000 from under the gun and Nate Silver called in the cutoff. Stephen Friedrich then shoved all in for 1,990,000 from the button and Dunst folded.
Silver spent several minutes agonizing over the call before he put in the chips.
Stephen Friedrich: A♦10♠
Nate Silver: A♥J♥
"Good luck. Actually, not good luck," Silver joked as the two opponents stood up and shook hands prior to the 9♣8♦Q♦ flop. The board ran out 4♣6♠ and Friedrich was sent to the rail.
"Now I got to go back to work. Engineering's tough," Friedrich said on his way to collect his payout.
