The flop came 8♣A♠4♥ and Francisco Perez Moreno checked from the big blind. Brett Murray fired for 30,000 from the button.
While the turn peeled the A♥, Moreno again checked to Murray. He continued for 90,000 and was rewarded with a pot.
Hyunsick Jang went for a ride on the ole poker rollercoaster.
Jang first moved all in for 335,000 from middle position, with action folding to Jeffrey Yanchek in the big blind. Yankchek called off his stack of 275,000 and the cards went on their backs.
Jang had 7♦7♥ and was flipping against A♥K♥. The J♥8♦4♣K♦K♣ runout gave Yanchek trips for the double up.
A few hands later, Jang put in his last 60,000 from under the gun. The table got out of the way before Rui Ferreira called from the big blind as the bigger stack.
Jang's Q♦5♥ bested Ferreira's 10♣2♦ after the board ran out with the 9♦7♥3♠5♣7♦.
On the next deal, Zhiyuan Xu opened to 50,000 from the button, with Ferreira calling from the small blind. Jang moved all in once again, looking to continue his spin up. Xu folded but Ferreira called to reclaim his recently lost chips.
Hyunsick Jang: A♥4♦
Rui Ferreira: 5♠5♣
Ferreira's pocket pair remained best and Jang headed out of the tournament area following the Q♣2♥6♣K♥J♦.
On a K♦10♦7♥3♥ board, Mustapha Kanit was in from the blinds and put to the test by Michael Arellano. The pot was around 250,000, which was roughly Kanit's remaining stack as well.
Arellano had moved all in and Kanit called after long deliberation with 10♥9♣. Arellano turned up A♣2♣ and Kanit doubled after the 9♠ river.
At an adjacent table, Pavlo Veksler played his last hand in the tournament when he ran A♥Q♦ into Alisson Piekazewicz' A♠A♦.
Action was caught after the flop of 8♠A♠10♦ and Ashish Anilkumar led out for 55,000 from the big blind. Fehem Hajdari made the call from under the gun.
The turn was the 7♦ and both players were quick to check.
While the river peeled the J♠, Anilkumar fired for 30,000. Hajdari made the call and Anilkumar revealed 10♣8♣ for two pair.
Brian Shaw moved all in from late position for 170,000 and was called by Moundir Zoughari from the button. Both players revealed their cards.
Brian Shaw: Q♥10♠
Moundir Zoughari: A♦J♦
The board ran out 2♣3♠9♣A♣9♠ for Zoughari to take the pot.
Kevin Pawloski moved all in for around 300,000 from the small blind and Vitalijs Zavorotnijs called from the big blind.
Kevin Pawloski: K♦9♦
Vitalijs Zavorotnijs: Ax10x
Pawlowski flopped best, making a pair of kings as the dealer put out the K♠10♥4♠. The 8♥ kept the at-risk player ahead, but the A♣ river gave Zavorotnijs the winner to bring Pawlowski's run to an end.
