Jonathan Hoal raised to 12,000 with the K♥J♥ from an early position and Stefan Van Huyssteen defended the big blind with 6♦2♠. They checked the J♣6♠2♥ flop before Van Huyssteen led the 3♥ turn and 3♦ river. The final bet was for 18,000 and Hoal called to win the pot with the superior two pair.
Alan Jung had taken half of the stack from Jarred Solomon in the opening stages and then raised to 12,000. Solomon jammed and Jung called "just because it is you".
Jarred Solomon: 8♣8♥ 
Alan Jung: A♠10♥
The flip went to Jung via counterfeit on the K♠J♥9♦J♣K♦ runout.
Over on the outer tables, Teren Ramnundlall was all-in with the K♠Q♦ and Jonathan Kalil looked him up with the 10♠10♣.
The J♣4♦3♠A♣7♦ board kept the pocket pair ahead and spelled the end for Ramnundlall.
On the tail end of a 9♣8♠7♦2♥3♠ river, Cliton Taliwanth bet 57,000 from the big blind. Wesley Blom called and won the pot with the A♦A♥, catching Taliwanth bluffing with the K♥10♠ for a missed straight draw.
SPT GrandWest runner-up Diane Walker had reached Day 2 with a severe short stack of 21,000 and got those in against Jonathan Hoal on the stream table. Her A♦J♣ was trailing against A♥K♠ and found no help on the K♥Q♦6♠A♠9♣ runout.
Norman Cherry was one of the shortest stacks coming back and got it in with A♥Q♥. Zoran Kljajic looked him up holding the K♦J♦ and improved to a pair of jacks on the J♥9♥6♦2♣7♣ runout.
Gareth Fourie led the 7♥3♣2♣Q♦ turn for 15,000 in the small blind and Jonathan Kalil called from under the gun. Fourie bet another 30,000 on the 9♠ river and Kalil let the entire 30 seconds shot clock run down before he folded.
