Andrew Wu limped the K♦J♣ and Lucas Pochat raised to 32,000 with the K♠Q♥, earning calls from Shota Nakanishi with the 6♠6♥, Donald Crabtree with the A♣Q♠ on the button and Wu.
The 9♥8♠4♣ flop was checked and Wu then bet the 8♦ turn for 92,000 after plenty of consideration. Only Nakanishi called to see the J♦ on the river as Wu took the lead and checked. Nakanishi bet 235,000 and Wu cut out the chips for the call before double-checking his cards.
In table chat, he pondered whether or not Nakanishi had an eight and engaged in table chat with his opponent. Wu tank-called and was delighted to win the large pot, declaring "you scared me to death".

Gabi Livshitz opened from middle position to 22,000 and was called by Cezar Quiambao in the small blind and by the big blind.
On the flop A♥K♠10♦, Livshitz bet 30,000. However this time, only Quiambao check-called to see the turn 4♥, where Livshitz fired out a second barrel of 85,000. Quiambao called once again.
The Q♣ landed on the river, and Quiambao bet 110,000. But Livshitz decided to raise all in for approximately 800,000 chips. Quiambao went into the tank and eventually called with his 400,000 chips left.
Cezar Quiambao: A♠Q♥
Gabi Livshitz: J♦10♣
"The Nuts," said Livshitz when he flipped his cards. Quiambao only had two pairs. Not enough to beat a straight, so he has been eliminated.

Andrew Benedict opened to 22,000 in early position and was called by the cutoff. Jason Somerville three-bet to 110,000 from the small blind and Benedict ripped all in for 493,000. The cutoff quickly folded but Somerville asked for a count which took over two minutes. Somerville thought for an additional minute and then made the call.
Andrew Benedict: K♠K♣
Jason Somerville: A♥K♥
The dealer fanned the flop of A♠J♦8♦ with the ace in the window to give Somerville a commanding lead. The 10♥ on the turn provided some chop outs but the 8♣ on the river sent Benedict to the payout desk.
