Mahler check-raised all in over Arcano's bet of 100,000, prompting Arcano to go into the tank. After taking some time to think through his decision, Arcano eventually flicked in the call for his remaining 265,000 or so.
"Got a set?" asked Arcano before the cards were tabled.
John Arcano: Q♦Q♥ 
Brian Mahler: 6♠6♣
Mahler did indeed have a set, and improved to a full house as the board ran out 7♥, J♣ to send Arcano packing.

On the 9♠ river, Ngamsaard checked and Asadabadi checked back. Ngamsaard tabled A♣A♦ to take down the pot.
Jeffrey Proctor raised to 75,000 in the cutoff and Joshua Staples defended in the big blind.
The dealer put out a monotone flop of 3♦4♦10♦ and Staples moved all in for 300,000 to put himself at risk. Proctor made the call.
Joshua Staples: A♠3♥
Jeffrey Proctor: 7♦7♠
Staples couldn't find any help on the 8♥ turn or 9♣ river, and his impressive tournament run came to an end.

Tyson Warren: Q♥Q♦
John Major: A♣10♠

Roy Kim was in the big blind and got it all in for just under 500,000 effective against Arash Asadabadi in the small blind, who covered.
Roy Kim: K♦K♥
Arash Asadabadi: A♠K♠
The flop came J♣3♦9♥ and Kim was in great shape to enjoy an appetizer in the form of a double up right before the dinner break.
That was until the board ran out Q♣, 10♦, giving Asadabadi Broadway to send Kim to the payout desk.
Michael Murphy open-jammed under the gun for 245,000, Jeffrey Proctor three-bet to 500,000 on the button, and Marlon Posadas four-bet shoved in the big blind for just over 1,000,000. Proctor called with the covering stack.
Michael Murphy: K♠Q♥
Marlon Posadas: J♣J♦
Jeffrey Proctor: A♣A♥
Murphy found some help on the 4♦9♠K♥ flop, pairing his king, but Proctor was still in the lead with his aces.
The turn landed the 8♦ and the river fell the 7♠ and the sizable pot was pushed Proctor's way, as both of his opponents were sent to the rail.
