Chahn Jung opened to 600,000 from under the gun and Yanting Jiang called from middle position.
The pair saw a 9♣2♣10♦ flop and action checked quickly to the 3♣ turn. Jung bet 2,000,000 and Jiang called to get to the 7♥ river.
Jung asked for 1,700,000 which was too much for Jiang and she mucked her hand and passed the pot to Jung.
Yanting Jiang opened to 600,000 from early position, which led to a call by Maurice Hawkins out of the small blind and Luis Yepez out of the big blind.
The flop came 2♦10♥K♦, and Hawkins checked his option. Yepez also checked, and Jiang opted to continue for 800,000. Hawkins folded, but Yepez was not in the folding mood as he check-raised all-in for 1,750,000 in response. Jiang called to put Yepez at risk.
Luis Yepez: K♦J♠
Yanting Jiang: Q♠5♠
Yepez was well in control with his top pair. The 4♠ sealed the deal in his favor as Jiang had no recourse to win the hand.
The inconsequential 8♦ hit the river as Yepez scored the double up.
Punnat Punsri opened to 650,000 from under the gun and saw four callers. Yanting Jiang called from middle position, Roberto Romanello on the button, Maurice Hawkins in the small blind and Luis Yepez defended his big blind.
The 3♦7♣5♦ flop saw action check to Jiang who moved out a stack of 10,000,000. Roberto folded, but Hawkins snap called, putting his 7,875,000 at risk. After the other players mucked their cards the hands were flipped and the runout continued.
Maurice Hawkins: 3♥3♠
Yanting Jiang: A♦9♦
Jiang was hunting for the flush draw, but Hawkins had already flopped the set. The 9♥ turn paired Jiang but didn't change his outs, and the 8♥ river locked up Hawkins double.
Yanting Jiang began the bidding with an open to 600,000 from hijack. Michael Rocco joined with a call from the small blind.
The flop fanned out J♥3♦2♦ before both players checked.
Neither player did any betting on the Q♣ turn either, as they both knuckled to usher in the 9♦ river.
Rocco led out with a wager of 300,000. Jiang wanted to put more chips in the pot and chose to raise to 1,500,000.
Rocco went into the tank before Jiang called the clock after he was in deliberation. The floor came over and began the countdown, and just before the timer was going to expire, Rocco made the call.
Jiang showed the river was her friend when she tabled 9♥9♠ for a set of nines.
Rocco mucked his hand to award Jiang the pot.

Jose Aguilera opened to 600,000 from under the gun to start the hand. Chahn Jung three-bet to 1,850,000 on the button. Aguilera four-bet jammed for approximately 5,700,000 and was called by Jung to be at risk as they went to a showdown.
Jose Aguilera: A♦4♦
Chahn Jung: A♣Q♣
Jung had Aguilera gasping for air as he held the superior ace with five cards to go.
The 2♠8♠10♦ flop was of no help to Aguilera.
Aguilera would perk up on the 5♦ turn as he gained a flush draw and a straight draw, but it did not come to pass on the 5♠ river as Aguilera would bow out from contention in 11th place.
Aguilera earned $91,740 for his finish.
