Gaston Martinez raised to 160,000 in the hijack before James Tsou moved all in for 870,000 in the small blind. Aloisio Dourado reshoved in the big blind and Martinez tanked for a minute before folding.
James Tsou: A?8? 
Aloisio Dourado: Q?Q?
Tsou was trailing Dourado's queens as the flop came 7?5?5?. The 8? turn left him a card away from elimination, but Tsou spiked the A? on the river to win the pot and double up.

Iaron Lightbourne peeked at his cards then looked at who was in the big blind and saw Stephen Song.
"It's more for you," said Lightbourne as he made it 200,000 to go.
Once it folded to Song, he made the call.
They saw a monotone flop of A?3?K? where Song checked, Lightbourne bet 80,000, and Song made it 300,000. Lightbourne hadn't seen the raise of Song and jokingly called the clock, not knowing that he was calling the clock on himself. The floor came over to give the countdown when Lightbourne finally realized.
"You're calling the clock on yourself?" asked Song.
"Oh what. You raised?" replied Lightbourne as he saw the raise of Song in the pot, then folded his hand.

Alex Keating opened to 160,000 from early position and Tobias Matuschek three-bet to 480,000 from the cutoff. Kyosuke Nagami then cold four-bet to 1,160,000 on the button which got a fold from both Keating and Matuschek.
"Let me pick one!" Matuschek requested.
Nagami complied and Matuschek said, "One hundred percent a king," as he turned over the K?.
"I know!" Matuschek said as Nagami collected the pot.

Dian Shi was already all-in preflop and looked up by Francisco Sanchez as well as Jordan Griff. The two active players checked down the Q?9?9?K?7? runout and Shi tabled his A?Q? for queens and nines. Sanchez had that beat with the A?K? and the J?J? of Griff were no good either for Sanchez to score the early knockout.
