Short-stacked Timothy Niles moved all in preflop and was called by Charlen Aseberos in the big blind to put him at risk.
Timothy Niles: Q?9?
Charlen Aseberos: A?9?
"Well, look at that, he has an ace in the big blind!" Niles sighed, visibly frustrated.
The board ran out J?2?6?5?K? for Aseberos to take the pot with his ace high and Niles was eliminated in 11th place.

Wilson Chan opened to 400,00 from the button and Yousef Salameh made the call from the small blind.
The action was then on Jagdeep Bal in the big blind who then three-bet to 2,000,000. Chan thought about it for a few seconds before he tossed it in and Salemeh quickly followed suit to award the pot to Bal.

In a massive heads-up pot, there was already around 2,400,000 in the pot when Yousef Salameh led out for 700,000.
The action was then on Jagdeep Bal who went deep into the tank, so much so that the clock was called on him.
As his timer reached zero, he then shocked everyone by moving all in for 5,700,000 and then it was Salameh's turn to be in the blender.
After a good two minutes, he finally decided to let it go and the massive pot was pushed to Bal to increase his chip lead.

Rifki Yazid moved all in preflop and was called off by Joe Nguyen to put him at risk.
