Biao Ding, who started the hand with around 300,000, jammed the turn on Q♠6♣2♠J♥ and was looked up by Artsiom Lasouski.
Biao Ding: K♦Q♦ 
Artsiom Lasouski: A♥A♣
Ding had top pair queens but had ran into Lasouski's rockets, and the 7♠ river did not save him.

Lucien Cohen moved all in for 180,000 in the cutoff and Zhewen Hu called in the big blind.
Lucien Cohen: A♣Q♠
Zhewen Hu: K♣K♥
Hu had woken up with kings to leave Cohen at risk of elimination. "Ace," Cohen yelled out heading to the flop, which came Q♣J♦7♦. "Ace or queen," he shouted, and he got his wish when the A♠ fell on the turn to give him two pair.
"King," Hu cried as he pleaded for help. The dealer obliged by turning over the K♠ on the river to give him a set and send the Ratman to the rail.
"Bravo, my friend. It's good," Cohen, in the gentlest voice he's had so far this level, told Hu as he reached across the table to shake his opponent's hand before heading for the exit.

Sebastian Malec kicked off the action from the cutoff with a raise to 24,000, only to be three-bet to 70,000 by Fahredin Mustafov on the button. Malec responded by shoving for around 400,000, and Mustafov snap-called, bringing the two to a showdown.
Sebastian Malec: Q♥J♠
Fahredin Mustafov: 10♠10♦
Malec needed help from the board, but it ran out K♥5♥2♣8♦7♥, offering no improvement. Malec was sent to the rail, while Mustafov continued to build his already solid stack.

Ivan Zabiiakin raised to 24,000 in early position and Nicola Cappellesso called in the big blind.
The flop came 10♣8♠4♥ and Zabiiakin bet 30,000. Cappellesso called and the 9♣ turn was checked through to the Q♥ river.
Zabiiakin then bet 80,000 and Cappellesso snap-called, only for Zabiiakin to show A♣J♣ for a straight to win the pot.
A few hands earlier at this table, Nikita Kuznetsov got his short stack in with 6♣5♣ from the big blind on a board of 8♥7♠6♥J♣8♣, but Ranno Sootla in early position had A♠J♥ for top pair and Kuznetsov, who made the final table of this event last year, had his tournament come to an end short of replicating that run this year.

Hubert Matuszewski opened to 24,000 from early position, before Iurii Okolovich three-bet jammed for around 220,000 from middle position.
Action folded to Anton Wigg in the big blind, and he rejammed with a stack covering both players, convincing Matuszewski to get out of the way.
Iurii Okolovich: J♥J♠
Anton Wigg: 10♠10♦
Okolovich dominated with his overpair jacks, and the 8♦8♥6♥ flop was clear.
However, the 10♥ hit on the turn in cruel fashion to put Wigg in front, and the 2♠ river was not the jack Okolovich required to survive.

Mateusz Wozniak shoved from the hijack for around 130,000 and Mikhail Shalamov called in the cutoff.
Mateusz Wozniak: Q♥J♠
Mikhail Shalamov: A♠J♥
Wozniak was way behind and didn't find much to work with on the 8♦4♦7♠ flop. A 9♠ on the turn did give Wozniak a gutshot to a higher straight, but the 6♥ river was a brick, which meant he was eliminated.

Georgios Tsouloftas opened to 25,000 from early position and received a call from Anton Wigg on the button.
Adi Rajkovic was in the small blind, and he three-bet jammed for 201,000. Tsouloftas quickly folded but Wigg made the quick call with the covering stack.
Adi Rajkovic: A♣K♥
Anton Wigg: 9♥9♠
Rajkovic was behind in a race, and no help arrived on the 10♠10♥6♣3♣4♠ runout, Wigg scooping the pot with two pair, tens and nines.

Christopher Nguyen raised to 20,000 in the hijack and Artsiom Lasouski three-bet to 85,000 on the button. Mihai Niste then moved all in for 344,000 in the small blind, Nguyen folded, while Lasouski snap-called.
Mihai Niste: A♠Q♥
Artsiom Lasouski: A♣K♣
Niste was dominated and at risk, but the Q♠J♥4♠ flop gave him the lead with top pair. The turn was the A♦, but the 10♥ river improved Lasouski to a straight and sent Niste crashing to the rail.

Santhosh Suvarna made it 25,000 to go from the hijack and Arian Hassankashani called from the cutoff before Riccardo Saraniero squeezed to 75,000 on the button. Suvarna folded, but Hassankashani called.
They went to a flop of 10♣5♣4♣ where Hassankashani checked, and Saraniero fired 65,000. Hassankashani then picked up a stack of chips in each palm and double-handedly slid them into the middle — a raise of 185,000. Saraniero then instantly shoved for around 350,000, and Hassankashani snap-called.
Riccardo Saraniero: Q♠Q♦
Arian Hassankashani: 4♦4♠
Saraniero had the overpair, but Hassankashani had flopped a set and had control of the hand. The J♣ on the turn did put a flush draw on board and a club on the river would see the two chop the pot, but instead the J♥ completed the runout, which eliminated Saraniero.
Hassankashani has almost 1,500,000 in his stack and sits a few seats away from the current chip leader Bobby James.
