No-Limit Hold'em
Oleksii Kovalchuk opened to 25,000 on the button and action folded to Maurizio Melara in the big blind, who contemplated his options for a bit before deciding to stick his last 130,000 into the middle. Kovalchuck called and hands were revealed.
Maurizio Melara: A♠6♥
Oleksii Kovalchuk: J♠10♠
Melara held a slight lead, but the J♥3♠3♦8♣10♥ runout left Kovalchuk best with jacks-up and Melara was knocked out in eighth place.

Action folded around to the blinds, where Wooram Cho shoved and Daniel Habl called all in for approximately 130,000.
Daniel Habl: K♣Q♣
Wooram Cho: K♥8♦
Habl had Cho dominated, but the 7♥8♠7♠ flop paired Cho's eight and vaulted him into the lead.
The 2♠ turn and 6♣ river were of no help to Habl and he was eliminated in ninth place.

No-Limit Hold'em
Three ways on a flop of J♥9♥A♦, Ian Bradley checked from the small blind and Roland Israelashvili checked from the big blind to Wooram Cho, who bet 15,000 from under the gun. Bradley then check-raised to 50,000, which got a fold from Israelashvili and a call from Cho.
Cho called a 65,000 bet from Bradley on the 5♦ turn and then Bradley overbet the pot for 400,000 when the Q♠ completed the board.
Cho quickly called and Bradley tabled K♥10♠ for a rivered straight. Cho showed he held 9♠9♦ for a set before sending it into the muck — awarding the massive pot to Bradley.
