Paul Runge raised to 1,300,000 from the small blind and Yucel Eminoglu defended his big blind.
The flop came J?5?7?. Runge shoved and Eminoglu jumped up from his seat. He glanced over to Runge's stack who counted it out for him and confirmed he had around 6,000,000 behind. Eminoglu considered it for a while, counting out calling chips.
"You got the flush draw, I call!" Eminoglu said before making the call.
"Straight draw," Runge replied but then he saw Eminoglu's cards. "Oh no, you're ahead."
Paul Runge: 8?6?
Yucel Eminoglu: 8?7?
Runge had the open-ended straight draw but Eminoglu had flopped middle pair.
The rest of the board was completed with the 3? on the turn and the 10? on the river for Runge to finish in third place.
Yucel Eminoglu raised to 1,300,000 from the button and Seam Jazayeri three-bet shoved from the small blind for Paul Runge to fold immediately but Eminoglu made the call.
Sean Jazayeri: A?Q?
Yucel Eminoglu: J?J?
The flop came A?6?4? for Jazyeri to find the bigger pair before the A? on the turn gave him trips.
The river completed the board with the 7? to keep Jazayeri ahead and double up.
Paul Runge opened the button to 1,100,000 and Sean Jazayeri shoved for around 6,500,000 from the big blind. After thinking it over, Runge made the call.
Sean Jazayeri: A?K?
Paul Runge: 10?9?
Jazayeri needed to win the hand to stay alive and he did so emphatically after the runout of K?2?2?K?A? improved him to a full house.
In the first hand, Paul Runge raised to 1,100,000 from the button and Sean Jazayeri defended his big blind. On the 4?J?2? flop, Runge's continuation-bet saw him getting awarded with the pot.
A few hands later, he completed his small blind and then called the 1,600,000 raise by Yucel Eminoglu in the big blind. On the K?5?J? flop, Runge check-raised the 1,800,000 bet of Eminoglu to 6,000,000 and won again.
But in the third hand, Eminoglu bet 1,100,000 from the button and Runge defended his big blind.
The flop came Q?10?9?, Runge check-called the 600,000 bet of Eminoglu.
They both checked through the 4? on the turn to the J? on the river. Runge checked and Eminoglue bet 3,800,000 out. Runge contemplated for a bit but folded. Eminoglu tabled the 6?3? for the bluff.

Paul Runge opened from under the gun to 1,100,000 and Manelic Minaya called from the big blind.
On the flop of K?4?7?, Minaya checked, Runge bet 1,000,000, Minaya shoved for 4,500,000, and Runge snap-called,
Manelic Minaya: K?8?
Paul Runge: K?K?
Runge had flopped top set which crushed the top pair of Minaya, whose only hope was his backdoor draws. Minaya did hit the perfect turn card as the 6? improved him to both straight and flush draws, which gave him the chance he needed to survive. Unfortunately for Minaya, the 2? river was a brick meaning he was eliminated in fourth.
