Rachid El Yaacoubi raised to 250,000 in the hijack before Christopher Campisano moved all in for 1,875,000 in the cutoff. El Yaacoubi confirmed the amount before calling.
Christopher Campisano: Q♦Q♠ 
Rachid El Yaacoubi: 7♦7♣
Campisano had El Yaacoubi dominated with his queens and finished with a full house on the J♠J♥9♥6♥J♦ board to earn a double up.
Thomas Eychenne raised to 240,000 from the cutoff and Frederic Marechal three-bet to 600,000 from the button. After the blinds folded, Eychenne four-bet to 1,300,000 and Marechal five-bet jammed for 3,570,000. Eychenne snap-called to put Marechal at risk.
Thomas Eychenne: K♦K♣
Frederic Marechal: 10♠10♥
Eychenne would move over the ten-million chip mark if his cowboys could hold up. However, the poker gods had other plans as the 10♦4♥2♦ flop put Marechal firmly in the lead with top set. The 3♥ turn and 9♠ river didn't change anything and Marechal doubled up through Eychenne.
Candido Cappiello put in 250,000 in the hijack and Iman Ghashayar three-bet to 775,000 in the cutoff. Cappiello put in a call for the 7♥8♦6♠ flop to hit the table.
Cappiello decided to lead out for 425,000, receiving a call from Ghashayar. He then sized up to 600,000 on the 2♠ turn.
This time, Ghashayar let his cards go as forfeited some chips to the leader of the field.
Xiaohua Yang raised to 300,000 in the cutoff and Sebastien Lucina called in the big blind.
Yang continued for 200,000 on the A♦A♠10♥ flop and Lucina raised to 460,000. Yang called and the 6♠ fell on the turn. Lucina then moved all in for 1,000,000.
Yang tossed the 10♠ into the muck as he surrendered the pot to Lucina.
Gary Tatavarti raised to 260,000 in early position, Stephen Nahm moved all in for 1,165,000 in the cutoff, and Tatavarti called.
Stephen Nahm: K♦9♦
Gary Tatavarti: 10♥10♠
The Q♦10♦2♠ flop gave Tatavarti a set, while Nahm picked up straight and flush draws. The rest of the board ran out 3♦A♥ and some players at the table wished Nahm "good game" before it was pointed out that he had made his flush on the turn to crack Tatavarti's set.
"I didn't even realize that," Luc Ramos said.
Thomas Eychenne made it 240,000 in the hijack and was called by Florian Duta on the button.
Eychenne checked to Duta on the 9♠8♣5♠ flop, after which the latter bet 275,000. Eychenne called to the Q♠ turn, where he check-called a bet of 400,000 from Duta.
The A♥ river was knuckled by both, leading to a showdown. Eychenne showed a Qx, but Duta quickly tabled A♣J♥ to take down the pot with his superior pair.
Stephen Nahm called from the small blind before Adrian Cazacu raised to 325,000 out of the big blind. Nahm limp-raised to 900,000 and after doing a bit of inventory, Cazacu shoved for 4,250,000. Nahm instantly called.
Adrian Cazacu: A♥J♠
Stephen Nahm: A♦A♠
Cazacu would need a miracle if he were to remain in the tournament. The flop of J♥7♠10♥ offered a glimmer of hope to Cazacu in the form of top pair. However, the 2♦ turn meant only a jack on the river could save him, and when the dealer peeled of the J♦ on the river to give Cazacu trips, he erupted in excitement by shouting
"Yes! Yes!, I'm the f#%king worst!"
Nahm remained stoic as ever while the majority of his chips were sent over to Cazacu.
Luigi Pignataro had open-raised preflop and Rachid El Yaacoubi had defended his big blind when El Yaacoubi checked the A♥6♥4♥ flop to his opponent.
Pignataro put in a bet of 355,000 and El Yaacoubi matched that bet. Both were checking the 10♥ turn before Pignataro put in 745,000 on the 7♠ river.
El Yaacoubi immediately flicked in a calling chip but mucked his cards just as fast when Pignataro tabled K♥10♠ for the nut flush.
Thomas Eychenne raised to 250,000 in middle position, Catalin Diac moved all in for 1,500,000 in the cutoff, and Eychenne called.
Catalin Diac: A♦K♣
Thomas Eychenne: K♦K♠
Diac needed to find an ace to survive as Eychenne woke up with kings, but he received no help on the 6♦9♣2♦7♠5♥ board and was sent to the rail.
Dimitrios Anastasakis raised to 240,000 under the gun with Xiaohua Yang being the only caller out of the small blind.
After Yang checked the J♥5♦6♠ flop, Anastasakis bet 150,000 and was immediately check-raised to 400,000 by Yang. Anastasakis called.
Yang quickly shoved for Anastasakis' remaining 1,150,000 upon seeing the 2♣ fall on the turn and Anastasakis snap-called.
Dimitrios Anastasakis: A♦A♣
Xiaohua Yang: 10♠8♣
Yang was drawing dead to the pocket aces of Anastasakis as the inconsequential J♦ came on the river.
