Dan Borlan raised from the cutoff and Grigorii Rodin shoved from the big blind for over 2,000,000. Borlan had around 1,850,000 in his stack and quickly called to put himself at risk.
Dan Borlan: J♣J♦
Grigorii Rodin: A♦2♦
Borlan was ahead with his jacks, but fell quickly behind as the 9♣Q♥A♠ flop paired Rodin's ace. A 6♥ on the turn offered no help, and neither did the 6♦ turn, which meant Borlan was out in 18th.

As the other players were heading on break, Alexandru Lupuleac made it 600,000 to go on the button, leaving himself around 200,000 behind. Danielle Noja then immediately shoved from the small blind, and after an unsuccessful ladder hunt, Lupuleac called.
Alexandru Lupuleac: A♠7♦
Danielle Noja: A♣K♣
It didn't look good for Lupuleac, who lost one of his outs on the 9♣J♥4♣ flop as Noja picked up a flush draw. A Q♣ on the turn ended the hand right there as Noja completed his flush, and even had a sweat for a Royal. However, the 5♥ river didn't bring in the rarest hand in poker, but still meant Lupuleac was out in 20th.

Dan Borlan raised from the hijack and Gaspare Sposato called from the big blind.
On a flop of 2♣6♣J♠, Sposato checked from the big blind and Borlan fired out a bet of 150,000. Sposato then raised to 500,000, and Borlan called.
When the K♥ landed on the turn, Sposato shoved for around 1,200,000, and Borlan snap-called.
Gaspare Sposato: K♣Q♣
Dan Borlan: 2♠2♥
Sposato had top pair with a flush draw, but Borlan's bottom set was a huge favorite to scoop the pot. A 7♠ on the river was the wrong shade of black for Sposato, and he was out in 20th.

Paul Newey shoved his stack of around 800,000 into the middle from the hijack and Murat Bayyurt also shoved from the cutoff.
Paul Newey: 5♦5♠
Murat Bayyurt: A♣K♥
Another tournament, another flip, and this one was spicy as both improved on the 10♣5♣6♣ flop with Newey making a set and Bayyurt having the nut flush draw. A 4♠ on the turn was safe for Newey, but he couldn't swerve the 7♣ river as Bayyurt made a flush.

Sachin Joshi opened from early position and then called the shove of Boris Kolev, who had around 500,000 in his stack.
Boris Kolev: A♠Q♥
Sachin Joshi: 10♠10♦
Kolev needed to win the flip to remain in contention, but didn't find much to work with on the 4♥J♦2♥ flop. A J♠ turn also was no help, and Kolev made his way to the exit when the 2♠ fell on the river.
