With about 500,000 in the middle on the 9♠6♦2♠6♠ turn, Fedor Holz checked to Alejandro Lococo who used a time bank before betting 125,000. Holz made the call.
The 2♦ completed the board on the river, and Holz checked to Lococo as he tossed three time bank chips into the middle. After about a minute, Locooco pushed forward a bet of 560,000. Holz went into the tank, this time he was the one to throw in a time bank chip. Eventually, Holz mucked his hand and the dealer pushed the pot to Lococo.

Everyone folded to Matthias Eibinger in the small blind, who decided to limp. In the big blind, Jeremy Ausmus checked his option, and both of them discovered the flop 9♦J♦2♦.
Eibinger checked at this point and then called Ausmus's bet of 30,000. On the turn K♠, he check-called a second barrel of 105,000.
The 9♠ came on the river, and Eibinger checked for the third time. Ausmus fired out a bet of 345,000, which was almost his entire stack as he only kept a single red chip worth 5,000.
Eibinger used a time bank to make his decision. And after a minute, he called. Ausmus showed 6♦3♦ for a flush hit on the flop. Eibinger mucked his cards and let Ausmus double up.
Daniel Smiljkovic opened 50,000 in the hijack, and Gregory Jensen three-bet 200,000 from the small blind. Smiljkovic called.
The dealer fanned a flop of K♣8♥4♠, and Jensen continued for 200,000, which was enough for Smiljkovic to surrender the pot.
With about 500,000 in the middle on the completed board of A♥Q♣7♦5♦A♣, Christoph Vogelsang bet 300,000. Jonathan Jaffe was the only opponent in the hand and went into the tank. After tossing in two time bank chips and using almost the entire time allotted, he made the call.
Vogelsang tabled A♠9♠, for trip aces, and Jaffe mucked his hand.

Andrew Pacheco shoved under the gun for about 360,000 and John Hennigan called off his stack of 325,000 from a couple of spots to his left.
Andrew Pacheco: K♥10♥
John Hennigan: A♦K♦
The flop of A♥Q♥2♠ connected with both players, giving Hennigan top pair, and Pacheco a royal flush draw. The 9♥ turn completed Pacheco's flush, leaving Hennigan drawing dead and the 4♠ river was just a formality.
With about 135,000 in the middle, the flop read J♥8♦6♥, and Alex Kulev check-raised a bet of 35,000 from David Peters to 70,000.
Peters paused for a moment before ripping all-in, and Kulev's cards flung into the muck immediately.
Moshe Refaelowitz opened 50,000 in early position before Alexandros Theologis moved all-in from the small blind. Jules Dickerson only had 95,000 remaining and called it off before Refaelowitz called off his 435,000.
Jules Dickerson: 10♣9♠
Moshe Refaelowitz: A♦A♣
Alexandros Theologis: Q♣Q♠
Refaelowitz had the best starting hand in the deck and was able to hold when the board ran out K♣8♠5♠6♣2♠, eliminating Dickerson as well as collecting the double from Theologis.
