Kenny Hallaert raised to 425,000 from under the gun with A♥2♥ and Pedro Padilha called in the hijack with the A♠Q♠. All other players behind them folded.
The flop came K♠10♥4♣, and Hallaert continued for 550,000, Padilha called as they headed to the 10♦ on the turn.
Both slowed down and checked to the J♦ river, on which Hallaert opted to bet 1,800,000. Padilha called with Broadway and won the pot.
Joey Padron raised to 450,000 from the button, and Adam Hendrix called from the small blind. Action checked through to the river, where the board read K♦Q♠Q♥7♣2♦.
Hendrix bet 300,000, but folded after Padron made it 1,400,000.
Diego Ponce raised to 400,000 in early position and Adrien Zychowski called in the big blind.
Ponce bet 300,000 on the A♥6♥2♣ flop and Zychowski called. Ponce then bet 1,200,000 on the 9♣ turn, and Zychowski took a minute before folding.
A few hands later, Stephen Hesse opened to 450,000 in early position and Ponce defended his big blind.
The flop came 7♠6♣5♦ and Ponce led out for 350,000. Hesse called to the J♦ turn, where Ponce bet another 1,200,000. Hesse folded and Ponce took another pot.
For the third hand in a row, Kyle Grupp and Michael Mizrachi clashed.
Grupp opened from the hijack with 9♣8♣ to 400,000, and Mizrachi, sitting on Q♥Q♣, fired back with a three-bet to 975,000.
Grupp made the call, and they went to a flop that came 6♣7♦8♠, giving Grupp top pair and an open-ender.
Grupp led out for 625,000, and Mizrachi responded with a raise to 2,100,000. Grupp came over the top with a shove to 7,800,000, leaving just 25,000 behind. Mizrachi moved all in, and Grupp took his time before the call, putting his tournament life on the line.
With the cards on their backs, Grupp needed a ten, nine, eight, or five to survive. The 2♥ turn offered no help, and the Q♠ river sealed it as Mizrachi improved to a set and sent Grupp to the rail after a dramatic three-hand saga.
After some arguments between Will Kassouf and Tomas Szwarcberg surrounding the clock being called too early, Kassouf started bantering his tablemate within earshot of the tournament floor supervisor. He was then given a one round penalty and took that time to step away from the table to have a discussion with two of the tournament directors.
Kassouf was still in the middle of explaining his situation and all of the controversy that took place on Day 6 when Jack Effel arrived in the tournament area.
"This conversation is over. There is nothing else to be said here. Take your one-round penalty and shut up," Effel went off on Kassouf. "If you follow me or if this continues, I will have security escort you out of here and you will be disqualified."
Kassouf was clearly not happy with the situation unfolding and took it outside of the ropes to continue explaining his situation to the PokerGO camera.
"This is 2016 all over again!" Kassouf shouted.
Out of the small blind, Stefan Nemetz raised to 700,000 and was called by Pedro Padilha in the big blind. The two players checked to the 9♦8♥2♥6♦6♣ river, on which Nemetz opted to check once more. Padilha checked it back and won the pot with A♣10♥.
Sergio Veloso raised to 400,000 in middle position and Stephen Hesse called in the small blind.
The flop came K♦J♣4♠ and Veloso bet 300,000. Hesse called and the 8♦ fell on the turn.
Hesse then led out for 650,000, and Veloso raised to 1,500,000. Hesse called and checked the 6♦ river, and Veloso quickly checked back.
Hesse showed K♠J♠ for two pair, and Veloso mucked.
Michael Garner raised to 400,000 and Daniel Iachan three-bet to 1,200,000 in the cutoff. All other players behind and Garner then four-bet jammed for Iachane to call all-in for 5,925,000 on the pay jump.
Daniel Iachan: A♦K♦ 
Michael Garner: A♠Q♥
The K♥J♦J♠ flop kept Iachan in the lead and Garner traded his three queens for four tens as outs. Nothing changed on the 7♦ turn and the 4♠ river was a blank as well for Iachan to double.
