Kyosuke Nagami raised to 200,000 and was called only by Jason Kornegay in the big blind. On the 10♥7♠7♦ flop, Kornegay check-called a bet of 150,000 and they checked the K♦ on the turn. Kornegay check-called another 150,000 on the 8♥ river but couldn't beat the Q♠Q♣ of Nagami.
Hendrik Terner raised to 225,000 in middle position. Kyle Mart three-bet to 600,000 on the button, and Junjie Tang placed a small four-bet from the small blind after a while in the tank.
Terner also got out of the way, but Mart committed his stack of 3,000,000 to the middle. Tang snapped him off to put Mart at risk.
Kyle Mart: A♠K♣ 
Junjie Tang: A♦A♣
"I folded queens," Terner immediately said.
"Why?" he lamented once the 6♠3♣Q♣ flop was dealt, which would have given him top set. Meanwhile, Mart could not perform a miracle on the 7♣10♥ runout, and he said his goodbyes as he departed the Main Event.
Lauri Saaskilahti raised to 200,000 first to act and was called by Wesley Fei in the small blind and Virgile Turchi in the big blind for a three-way pot.
Fei led out for 250,000 on the 6♠8♥5♥ flop and then action checked through on the 4♥ turn.
The 3♥ brought four cards to a flush on board and Fei put a bet of 350,000 into the middle. Saaskilahti quickly called and Fei showed A♣7♣ for a turned straight.
It was no good, however, against Saaskilahti's 9♥9♦ for a flush and Saaskilahti padded his stack.
Jeff Weiss in early position bet 225,000 on a flop of 4♠7♣9♣ but Dylan Smith in the small blind raised to 700,000. Weiss made the call.
Smith continued for 400,000 on the 4♣ turn, but Weiss fired back with a bet of 2,000,000. Smith quickly folded.
On the K♥7♥4♠ flop, Kyosuke Nagami got all in for 1,385,000 from the big blind, with Jason Kornegay trying to win them all from the cutoff.
Kyosuke Nagami: K♠Q♦
Jason Kornegay: K♦9♥
Both players had top pair, but Nagami's queen kicker had him poised for the double-up.
The 7♠ turn and 5♦ river changed nothing, and Nagami doubled through Kornegay.
With the turn showing Q♦J♦7♣2♠, Thomas Clack was all-in for 1,315,000 and James Gregg reluctantly called after getting an exact count.
Thomas Clack: K♠K♥
James Gregg: A♣Q♣
"Ace or queen one time," Gregg demanded but the 5♠ river was a blank.
Wesley Fei raised to 200,000 from under the gun and Lauri Saaskilahti called in middle position before Kenneth Asher three-bet to 850,000 from the next seat.
Fei folded and Saaskilahti surprised the table by four-betting to 1,500,000. Asher called.
Saaskilahti bet on the flop of 8♠3♣9♣ and Asher laid it down.
Antonin Hays jammed his stack of 450,000 in early position and Jacob Thibodeau raised behind him to get things heads up.
Antonin Hays: Q♥9♥
Jacob Thibodeau: K♦J♦
Hays took a big lead on the flop of Q♣A♦4♣, but that changed on the K♥ turn before the 10♣ river confirmed Hays' elimination.
Gonzalo Almada moved all in for 1,580,000 from the button and Bryn Larkman put him at risk in the hijack.
Gonzalo Almada: A♥10♠
Bryn Larkman: 8♣8♥
Almada was racing for his tournament life but remained behind on the 5♥4♠2♣J♠ board. The river, though, was the A♦ to give Almada top pair and the double-up.
"Poker is crazy. One card, either he's out or has 3.5 million," tablemate Greg Mueller said.
Antonin Hays raised to 200,000 from the hijack and Antonio Galiana defended his big blind.
Galiana check-called a 300,000 bet from Hays on the 6♥4♦Q♦ flop and then led out for 450,000 after the 3♣ fell on the turn. Hays responded by raising to 1,450,000 and Galiana called.
The K♥ completed the board and Galiana checked a final time. Hays tanked a bit before announcing he was all-in and Galiana snap-called all in for approximately 3,500,000 total.
Antonio Galiana: K♦Q♠
Antonin Hays: A♦7♥
Hays could only show a bluff and Galiana shouted, "Vamos!" as he slammed down two pair to be awarded the large double-up.
