Rick Mechammil: A♠J♥
Martynas Vitkauskas: A♣7♦

Rick Mechammil open-shoved for 285,000 and it folded to Martynas Vitkauskas who made the call in the big blind:
Rick Mechammil: A♠J♥
Martynas Vitkauskas: A♣7♦
Mechammil didn't find any bad surprises on the A♦6♠10♣3♥K♣ board to double his stack.
Rob Hollink checked the Q♦7♦4♦ flop from the big blind, and Vitalijs Zavorotnijs fired a bet of 75,000 in middle position.
Hollink called, and the 6♣ turn was checked by both players. Hollink then led out for 220,000 on the 2♣ river.
Zavorotnijs slid in the call, and Hollink tabled A♦5♥ for ace-high. Zavorotnijs showed 9♠9♦, good enough to take down the pot and new chips to his stack.
Zdenek Zizka started the action in the cutoff by raising to 90,000 and got called by Anze Smajd next to him.
The flop fell A♥6♦9♠ and Zizka continued for 75,000. Smajd called and they both checked on the 5♥ turn.
The river was the 2♠ and Zizka checked. Smajd sent 270,000 into the pot and Zizka didn't take long to fold.
After losing a half a million chips when her kings were busted by jacks in the previous hand, Menglan Xu joined a threesome of shortstacks all in preflop.
Martynas Vitkauskas had the most chips in the hijack. Xu was in with around 80,000 from the cutoff and Edward Quinn was all in with 65,000 from the big blind.
Edward Quinn: A♥K♠
Menglan Xu: K♥8♥
Martynas Vitkauskas: A♣J♣
Xu had the lead through the turn, with a pair of eights on the 2♥8♣10♣10♥ board, plus she had a heart draw. But Vitkauskas hit a club flush on the river when the 3♣ fell, giving him a double knockout and two bounty chips.
John Racener raised to 80,000 from middle position. Santiago Plante then went all in, having Raecener covered. Raecener made the call and was ahead.
John Racener: A♠A♣
Santiago Plante: A♦Q♦
The dealer ran out a board of 9♥7♥3♣2♥2♣, securing a much-needed double up for Raecener.
Netanel Stern opened from under the gun. Jonathan Mccann in the cutoff raised all-in for 750,000, then Carlos Ibarra in the big blind shoved as well for roughly 200,000. Stern went deep into the tank but folded.
Carlos Ibarra: 10♣10♥
Jonathan Mccann: J♣J♥
Ibarra asked for a ten, but he didn't find any on K♣2♥K♥9♠9♥ and was eliminated. "If I cover you, I call," Stern said after the hand. He added that he had KxQx.
Level: 23
Blinds: 20,000/40,000
Ante: 40,000
Dan Stavila jammed from the cutoff for 210,000 and was called in the small blind by Zheyu Weng to put Stavila at risk.
Dan Stavila: Q♥10♣
Zheyu Weng: 5♦5♥
Stavila had a fighting chance against the pocket fives of Weng, but the flop brought no immediate relief as it came 3♠K♣6♠ to keep Weng in the lead.
The 4♣ turn offered no solace to Stavila, and the 4♠ river was a brick to award the pot to Weng.
Karl Karlsson was seen all in for his last 180,000, holding Q♠J♦, and against Kaiwen Wei who had the best hand with J♣J♥.
Karlsson was in bad shape to survive but he found a board Q♥8♠8♦3♣K♠ to double up with the queens.
