At Outer Table 2, Robert Mizrachi was check-raised on the river by one of the world's premier Omaha players, Mike Matusow for Team USA. Team Israel captain Eli Elezra came to the table and looked at Mizrachi's hand. Mizrachi then stood up, and he and Elezra could be seen whispering to each other. Whatever was said prompted Mizrachi to muck his hand.

Across the set, at Outer Table 3, the players took a 7-way raised flop. David Saab, for Team Australia, was the first player to move at the pot. The player to Saab's immediate left, David Chiu of Team China, raised, folding all other players.

Saab called to the turn, then pushed all in. Chiu quickly called the shove, which brought all of Team China running to the table. Both players had the same two pair on the turn, but Chiu, who had Saab covered, was on a freeroll to a straight or a flush with a river 8, 9 or spade. The river fell ace of spades, eliminating Team Australia from contention on Outer Table 3.
