Hand #9: Action folded around to the blinds, Mike Takayama shoved from the small, and Matthew Smith folded his big.
Hand #10: Action folded to the blinds, Matthew Smith raised to 250,000 from the small, and Lorenc Puka called to put himself at risk from the big.
Matthew Smith:

Puka was ahead and Smith needed help from the deck in order to stack him. The board ran out 
which missed both players entirely and Puka took the pot to double up.
Hand #11: Mike Takayama raised to 250,000 from the cutoff and won the pot uncontested.
Hand #12: Kavish Shabbir shoved from under the gun and won the blinds and antes.
