Ilia Pavlov opened to 110,000 from early position, and received a single call by Nariman Yaghmai in the cutoff.

Yaghmai went deep into the tank, and had to use at least three time banks to finally call.

Nariman Yaghmai: K♠Q♠
Ilia Pavlov: K♥J♣

Yaghmai hit top pair on the flop, but Pavlov had two pair. He improved to a full house thanks to the river J♥.

First eliminated player of the final table, Nariman Yaghmai, wins $84,600.

Burning through two time banks, Yaghmai responded with a raise to 700,000, leaving himself just 225,000 behind. Reixach made a swift fold.

Dmitrii Nazarov opened to 125,000 from under the gun. Then Hwany Lee three-bet to 350,000 in middle position. The other players folded, and Nazarov decided to go all in for 1,085,000 chips. Lee snap-called.

Dmitrii Nazarov: 5♠5♥
Hwany Lee: A♣K♦

Like he does every time he's at risk, Nazarov turned around so he couldn't see the board 4♦10♥7♠4♣5♣, but he doubled up, so he sat down and took his chips.
