Short-stacked Gabriel Andrade got it all in preflop against David Mzaruelov, who covered.
Gabriel Andrade: K♥5♥
David Mzaruelov: A♦K♠
"Five!" Andrade yelled as the flop came out 10♠K♦4♦ to give both players a pair of kings.
"Five!" He yelled again but the dealer put out the 6♠ on the turn.
"FIVE!" Andrade yelled one last time, and the cards finally seemed to hear him as the river came the 5♦ to give him the two pair he desperately needed to score the double.
Unfortunately, this victory did not last long as he moved all in a few hands later after an open from Jonathan Vuong.
"You know if you bust me, you won't be able to enjoy my singing anymore," Andrade tells him as he starts singing very much 'on-key'.
With that, Vuong snap-calls to put him at risk and the cards were tabled.
Gabriel Andrade: 2♣2♥
Jonathan Vuong: K♣Q♥
Andrade was in the lead with his deuces, but the runout was not his friend as it came 10♠5♠9♣5♦9♠ to counterfeit him and he was eliminated with deuce-high to Vuong's king-high.

After a preflop betting war, Dora Coyle got it all in against Bohdan Slyvinskyi who had around the same stack.
Bohdan Slyvinskyi: J♣J♦
Dora Coyle: K♦K♥
Coyle was a big favorite with her kings, and the runout of 3♣A♠5♦A♥2♦ was good for her to score the pot. After a chip count, it was found that Coyle actually had Slyvinskyi covered by a single 5,000 chip and he was eliminated from the tournament.

Maxx Holland opened under-the-gun to 100,000 and was three-bet to 300,000 by David Valden, but then John Ross put in the four-bet to 675,000 from the cutoff. The action folded back to Valden who made the call and the two players went to a flop of 4♦2♣4♠.
Valden checked to Ross who fired out for 420,000 and produced a fold from Valden.
"Phewwww!" Ross let out a deep sigh of relief as he pulled in the pot and showed K♥Q♣, which got quite a few reactions from the table.
Holland admitted to folding pocket tens, Valden said he had ace-queen suited, and even Jake Daniels said he folded ace-king on the button after faced with the four-bet.

The action was picked up on a heads-up turn of 8♠2♦J♦6♠ with a little over 1,000,000 in the middle and Maxx Holland had just moved all in for 1,800,000.
The action was then on David Valden who was in the tank.
After nearly two minutes, he shrugged and made the call, putting himself at risk.
David Valden: K♥J♥
Maxx Holland: A♦A♠
"Aghhh, nice hand," Valden sighed as he realized he was in rough shape. Only a jack or a king could keep him alive, but the river was the 8♥ to send him to the rail while Holland rakes in the big pot for a double.
