In heads-up play, the flop was A♠4♣8♦ when Faraz Jaka checked and called a bet of 20,000 from Gustavo Andre Mastelotto.
On the 2♥ turn, Jaka checked again and Mastelotto sent 200,000 in the middle. Jaka tanked for a minute and called.
The river was the 10♠ and Jaka checked. Mastelotto thought about his move for some time and jammed. Jaka snap-folded.
Action folded to Simeon Spasov in the small blind, who asked for a count of Olga Iermolcheva's chips in the big blind.
After a moment of thought he went all in. Iermolcheva only took a moment to check her cards and called.
Olga Iermolcheva: A♥9♠
Simeon Spasov: J♦2♦
The full board ran out 9♦7♣6♣A♠A♦ and Iermolcheva would get the double.
The very next hand she would put another short stack in the same spot, blind versus blind, but unfortunately she would lose half her stack in the process.
The next hand after that she opened on the button and got a call from the big blind.
The 7♥6♠8♠ flop landed and her opponent opted to lead. Iermolcheva called and they saw a 2♥ turn. Her opponent led again for 80,000 and Iermolcheva quickly ripped it all in. Her opponent tanked for almost four minutes but eventually laid it down and Iermolcheva would be back up to a workable stack.
All the chips went in the middle preflop between Ao Chen, at risk for a stack of about 650,000, and Simon Roboh, who had him covered:
Ao Chen: Q♠Q♣
Simon Roboh: A♣K♠
It was a typical flip situation, and the board J♥6♦7♥10♥4♣ gave the winning hand to Chen with his pair of queens.
All the chips went in the middle preflop between Mingzhe Li, at risk for his last 350,000 holding Q♠10♠, and Yuri Dzivielevski, who had the dominant stack with 9♣8♦.
The cards came out Q♥4♣K♥5♦K♣ and Li doubled up with two pair.
Yang Zhang raised and Edward Mroczkowski made the call to see a flop 5♥7♥10♦. Mroczkowski check-called Zhang's continuation for 75,000.
Things heated up on the 6♠ turn. Mroczkowski checked again and Zhang announced all in for 200,000. Mroczkowski called for the following showdown:
Yang Zhang: 9♥6♥
Edward Mroczkowski: 10♣8♠
Zhang couldn't find any help on the A♦ river and Mroczkowski took all the chips with a pair of tens to secure his seat for the final table tomorrow.
Mingzhe Li limped in on the button. Yuri Dzivielevski raised to 60,000 from the big blind. Li called.
The Q♦9♥4♥ flop hit the felt and Dzivielevski continued for 65,000. Li then raised to 160,000, and Dzivielevski called.
The 2♦ turn slowed things down and action checked through to a 5♠ river.
Dzivielevski then took the opportunity to lead four or 125,000. Li thought it over but eventually decided to lay it down and Dzivielevski scooped, giving him a massive chip lead heads up.
In heads-up play, the board showed 6♠A♠Q♣4♦ when both Yang Zhang and Mroczkowski checked.
The river showed the 5♦ and after another check from Zhang, Mroczkowski bet 135,000. Zhang considered it for some time and called, but mucked his cards when he saw 5♣4♣ in Mroczkowski's hands for two pair.
