Diego Ponce raised it up to 600,000 in the hijack and found a single caller in Sergio Veloso out of the big blind. On the K♣3♥2♣ flop, Veloso opted to check-call for 500,000 before they checked the K♥ on the turn. The K♠ river was also checked and Veloso claimed the pot with the A♠9♥.
The first active hand of Adrien Zychowski on the stream table this level saw him open to 750,000 with A♥10♠ and he was called by Luka Bojovic out of the big blind with 5♦4♣. Following the Q♣6♦4♦ flop, Bojovic checked and Zychowski continued for 500,000. Bojovic check-raised to 1,350,000 and Zychowski sent his cards into the muck.
Pedro Padilha raised to 600,000 in the cutoff before Tomas Szwarcberg three-bet to 2,400,000 in the big blind. Padilha folded.
The next hand, Padilha again opened to 600,000 with 7♥7♦ in the hijack and Szwarcberg called in the small blind holding K♣6♣
Both players checked to the river on a board of 10♠8♠4♦A♣J♦ when Szwarcberg led out for 1,200,000. Padilha then raised to 4,800,000, and Szwarcberg didn't even wait for Padilha to finish putting in the chips before folding.
John Wasnock made it 700,000 to go from middle position and Ruben Correia called in the big blind.
They saw a flop of Q♣5♠4♦, where Correia decided to lead out for 500,000. Wasnock called.
A Q♠ paired the board on the turn and Correia showed no signs of slowing down as he threw out 1,100,000. Wasnock had 3,600,000 behind and moved them all into the middle, which sent Correia into the tank.
It was only 2,500,000 more for Correia to call, but he elected against it and slid his cards back to the dealer, allowing Wasnock to chip up
Action folded to Lautaro Guerra on the button, and he made a raise to 600,000. Paul Gibbons was sitting in the small blind and went all in for 2,400,000. Guerra made the call after giving it some thought.
Paul Gibbons: A♣7♥
Lautaro Guerra: K♣7♠
The board came down clean with 3♦9♣8♠2♠8♣, giving Gibbons a full, much-needed double-up.
Nazar Buhaiov opened to 600,000 from the hijack. Octavian Voegele and Braxton Dunaway called from the button and big blind.
The K♣10♠10♣ flop checked through to the 3♠ turn. Dunaway checked and Buhaiov bet 2,250,000. Voegele called before Dunaway folded.
Buhaoiv fired out another 5,000,000 on the J♦ river and Voegele snap-called.
Buhaoiv tabled 10♥6♥ for trip tens and Voegelo mucked to fall to the 12 big blind mark.
Theo Tran was short-stacked but managed to get a shove through after he moved all in for 3,600,000 from under the gun.
Nobody else at the table called, and Tran lived to fight another day.
Tony Gregg opened to 600,000 from under the gun and was called by Eric Afriat and Joey Padron in the blinds. The flop fell 10♠10♦3♦ and the action checked to Gregg who continued with a bet of 450,000. Afriat called and Padron got out of the way.
The turn brought the 7♦ and both players checked to the Q♦ on the river. Afriat checked for the third time and Gregg put together a bet of 2,100,000. Afriat contemplated his decision for a couple of minutes but decided to fold.
"I had a diamond. Did you?" Afriat asked.
"Can neither confirm nor deny," Gregg replied.
Pedro Padilha raised to 600,000 on the button with Q♥J♥ and Juan Carlos Vecino called in the big blind with 7♦5♣.
The A♠7♣7♥ flop was checked through before Vecino led out for 300,000 on the 2♠ turn. Padilha called.
The river was the 9♠ and Vecino bet 2,200,000, leaving himself just 300,000 behind. Padilha quickly folded and Vecino continued his climb back into contention
Stephen Hesse on the button raised it up to 625,000 and Luka Bojovic three-bet to 1,800,000 in the small blind. It folded back to Hesse and he four-bet to 3,150,000 before Bojovic five-bet jammed and earned the call from Hesse for an effective 8,875,000.
Stephen Hesse: K♠K♦
Luka Bojovic: A♦K♥
The Q♣J♥8♠ flop gave Bojovic a gutshot straight draw and he instead spiked the A♥ on the turn. Hesse now needed the case king to double or one of the four tens in the deck to chop. Neither came with the 5♥ river and his tournament run ended in 39th place for $240,000.
