Alexandros Papadopoulos raised to 120,000 from early position, and it folded to Giuseppe Pantaleo in the small blind. He thought for about 90 seconds before he assembled a three-bet to 390,000, and slid it into the middle. The big blind quickly folded, and it was back to Papadopoulos. He asked Pantaleo how much he had behind, and not long after he got the answer, he moved all in, having Pantaleo covered.
Pantaleo quickly ditched his cards, and Papadopoulos scooped the pot to up his stack to over three million.
With a massive pot of about 650,000 already brewing and the completed board reading , Saya Ono shoved for what looked like 520,000 from the small blind into her lone opponent, Matt Berkey, who was under the gun and had her covered by a wide margin. Berkey went into the tank and ultimately called, and Ono flipped over for a rivered jack-high flush.
John Lanese moved all in from middle position, and Martin Lesjoein called the small blind. The player in the big blind had a bit of a dwell but left them to it.

The board ran out [3s52s8d8c]. Big slick stayed ahead of Lanese’s hand to send him to the rail in 28th place, just short of the three-table redraw.
Samuel Vonkennel raised to 115,000 from the cutoff, and Giuseppe Pantaleo three-bet to 290,000 from the button. Linglin Zeng was in the small blind and counted down her stack several times before she ultimately folded, and Vonkennel called.
The flop came , and Vonkennel checked. Pantaleo bet 185,000, and Vonkennel called. The turn brought the , and Vonkennel checked. Pantaleo moved all in for about 700,000, sending Vonkennel into the tank for several minutes.
The two players had approximately equal stacks. The clock was eventually called, and Vonkennel was given 30 seconds to act on his hand. With three seconds remaining in the countdown, he tossed his cards into the muck, and Pantaleo took the pot.
