There were roughly 600,000 in the pot on a flop of 9♠Q♠6♦, Connor Rash bet 430,000 from the cutoff and Andy Wilson called in the big blind.
Action went check-check on the 4♣ hit the turn and Wilson led for 430,000 on the 4♠ river, Rash quickly called. Wilson tabled Q♣3♣ and scooped the pot.
Paul Volpe and Michael Walsh got it all on preflop blind on blind, with Walsh needing the win to stick around in the 6-max.
Michael Walsh: K♦4♠
Paul Volpe: 9♦6♦
Walsh was ahead preflop, and stayed ahead all the way to the river, as the dealer fanned out the 5♣J♠7♥K♥4♣ board, keeping him hanging on.
Alejandro Ganivet raised from the cutoff to 240,000, and Tyler Cornell made the call from the big blind. The flop came out with 10♣4♠J♣, and Cornell checked. Ganivet bet out 120,000, and Cornell made the call.
Both players checked the turn 6♦ and the river Q♣, and Cornell tabled Q♦J♥ for two pair, and Ganivet mucked.
Matthew Wantman opened from the hijack and Kenneth Hill defended from the big blind.
The flop came K♥J♥4♠ and Hill check-called a 330,000 continuation bet from Wantman.
Wantman bet 575,000 when checked to on the 8♥ turn and Hill shoved for around 1,500,000. Wantman snap-called to put him at risk.
Kenneth Hill: 7♥6♥
Matthew Wantman: A♥A♦
Hill had turned a flush to crack Wantman's aces but the 4♥ turn gave Wantman the nut-flush.
"Oh my God, damn it" was all Hill could say before exiting the tournament area while Wantman dragged in another sizable pot.
Connor Rash raised 250,000 on the button, Alex Keating put him all in. Rash said "I'm going to wait a minute to see anyone busts" and called.
Connor Rash: 9♥9♦
Alex Keating: K♠J♦
The board ran out 6♥5♥Q♥3♥Q♦, and Keating was left with 500,000. Keating announced to the table after the hand "I thought the big blind was at 160,000".
The very next hand:
Alex Keating shoved in the small blind for 500,000, Uri Reichenstein called in the big blind.
Alex Keating: Q♥2♠
Uri Reichenstein: K♦9♣
No luck for Keating as the board ran out 7♣A♦4♦J♣10♥, and he was eliminated.
Dohyeok Kim opened to 250,000 from under the gun and Matthew Wantman three-bet to 800,000 from the small blind. Kim four-bet shoved for around 1,800,000 and Wantman called to put him at risk.
Dohyeok Kim: 6♠6♣
Matthew Wantman: 9♠9♥
Wantman remained ahead with the higher pocket pair on the Q♠5♠8♣5♦J♣ runout to eliminate Kim and win the hand.
Victoria Livschitz moved all in for her last 660,000 from under the gun, and Kenneth Hill isolated all in from the cutoff, and everyone else folded.
Victoria Livschitz: A♥J♥
Kenneth Hill: 6♥6♠
Hill announced, "Keep it low, dealer".
The board indeed ran out low with 9♥3♥6♣9♦7♠, and Hill pulled out a full house to eliminate Livschitz.
