Xiang Lin opened to 2,800,000 from the button. Karen Sarkisyan in the big blind three-bet to 7,100,000, but Lin four-bet all-in for 20,050,000. Sarkisyan went deep into the tank and called.
Xiang Lin: A♦K♣
Karen Sarkisyan: A♠10♠
Lin kept the lead all the way through a board of 6♦8♥5♣J♥7♣ and doubled up.
Short stacked Krishna Hari moved all in for his last 2,400,000 from early position and action folded to Mark Evangelista in the small blind, who three-bet to 3,600,000.
Frank Cimperman, sitting in the big blind, made the call, and the dealer fanned out the flop of 9♣3♠8♣.
Evangelista checked to Cimperman, who moved all in, which got a quick fold from Evangelista.
"Give me a Jack, please," requested Hari as cards were tabled.
Krishna Hari: Q♦10♦
Frank Cimperman: A♦9♦
Hari did indeed need a Jack to stay alive, but a Queen or ten would work too. Nothing materialized on the K♠ turn, and when the river bricked out with the 7♥, Hari was sent to the rail in eighth place.
"Guys, I had a very good time. F**** it, all-in," Krishna Hari under the gun said while pushing forward his 1,200,000-chip stack. Amadeus Janotta in middle position raised to 5,000,000 and the other players folded.
Krishna Hari: Q♥Q♣
Amadeus Janotta: A♦K♦
"I have two wonderful ladies," Hari said while flipping over his cards. He was barely worried by a flop of 8♦3♦3♥ and doubled up after the 5♥8♥ runout was revealed.
Action folded to Garrett Dwire in the big blind, who jammed all in, covering Ming Chen in the big blind. Chen squeezed his cards and snap-called.
Ming Chen: 7♥7♠
Garrett Dwire: K♦Q♥
Chen was looking good for a double-up on the A♥9♦5♠ flop, but the 10♣ turn spelled some danger as it gave Dwire a gutshot to go along with his pair outs. Cruelly, the K♥ peeled off on the river and made Dwire his pair to send Chen to the rail in ninth place

Xiang Lin opened to 2,200,000 from the cutoff. Stefan Jahn in the big blind jammed for 7,300,000 and Lin went deep into the tank. After more than a minute, he announced that he was calling.
Stefan Jahn: A♥Q♥
Xiang Lin: K♠7♣
Jahn was in the lead but Lin asked for a "cowboy" and flopped one on 5♣K♦4♥5♥5♦ to eliminate Jahn.

Amadeus Janotta raised from the hijack to 3,100,000, and Lukas Timko moved all in for 10,000,000 from the cutoff. Karen Sarkisyan was in the small blind and called the shove, and Janotta folded.
Lukas Timko: 7♥7♠
Karen Sarkisyan: J♥J♠
The board was 8♥6♦A♦J♣8♠, and a full house won the pot for Sarkisyan.
