With cards already on their backs, Tyler Hirschfeld was seen doubling through Brian Rast for 810,000 chips.
Hirschfeld held in the big blind against Rast's in the small blind, and the board showed to secure Hirschfeld's double against the five-time bracelet winner.
Alejandro Lococo raised it up from the hijack and Karim Rebei defended from the big blind. The flop came and both players checked to the on the turn.
Rebei led out with a bet of 140,000 and Lococo raised to 485,000. Rebei responded with a three-bet to 1,135,000 and this is where things got interesting. Lococo announced a raise but put in the wrong amount, therefore was committed to a min-raise of 1,785,000.
Rebei took the opportunity to push out a five-bet to 4,000,000 which put Lococo into the tank for at least six minutes. After looking visibly distressed, Lococo eventually announced all-in for 5,710,000.
"Oops," Rebei said to the rail as he shrugged his shoulders. He still asked for a count and gave it some thought for a couple of minutes and even got the chips ready to call. However, Rebei opted to lay his hand down and Lococo flashed the as he started clapping and shouting "Let's go!" as he dragged in a massive pot.

Pierce Mckellar raised it up from the hijack and Marius Johansen shoved all in for around 500,000 from the cutoff. The action was back on Mckellar who quickly called to put Johansen at risk.
Marius Johansen:
Pierce Mckellar:
It was no doubt a coin flip for Mckellar who was going to be looking at at least two overcards from Johansen. The board ran out and Johansen was unable to connect, sending him to the rail.
