Action was heads up with 30,000 in the pot and on the board when Tamer Kamel checked before Miguel Couceiro shoved his last 25,000. Kamel leaned forward and went into the tank for a moment before he ultimately put out the exact chips to call. Couceiro showed to take the pot with a pair of kings and Kamel flashed before he tossed it in the muck.

Patrik Jaros has been building a steady stack all day and mentioned earlier that he's "running hot" and that people keep betting into him despite him saying so. That form has continued into the last level of the day.

Kyung Sik Jung:

There was 14,000 in the middle on the board. Stephen Song checked from the hijack and Ai Guo Xu bet 5,000. Song then jammed as the bigger stack, which put Xu in the blender.
After some time, Xu called the clock on himself. "I need help," he said.
As the countdown began, Xu folded.
"Strange," Xu commented.
"I had the best hand," replied Song.
