Jason Mercier jammed for 156,000 from the hijack and Qiang Xu called as the bigger stack from the big blind.
Jason Mercier: Qx10x
Qiang Xu: A♥K♥
Mercier pulled ahead on the Q♦9♠8♥ flop, and remained best after the 6♦ turn. However, the K♠ river gave Xu the better pair to seal the checkmark.
Tyler Creach jammed from under the gun for 167,000 and Greg Garabedian moved in from the next seat for around 400,000. Once the rest of the table folded, the cards were revealed.
Tyler Creach: A♦J♣
Greg Garabedian: A♠Q♣
Creach was crushed by Garabedian, but that changed on the K♦K♠J♥ flop as Creach paired his ace. The 2♣ turn and 4♦ river were safe for Creach, and he doibled through Garabedian.
Mark Harken raised to 65,000 from under the gun, Matthew McEwan went all in for 255,000 from the cutoff, Harken snap-called.
Matthew Mcewan: A♥A♣
Mark Harken: A♠Q♠
The flop came sweaty for Mcewan as it came 10♠9♠6♦, the 4♦ was dealt on the turn and the 6♠ on the river gave Harken the nut flush and eliminated Mcewan from the tournament.
Level: 21
Blinds: 10,000/20,000
Ante: 20,000
A three-way all in had just taken place on Table 447 with Lucas Jumalon holding the chance to bust both Jose Sosa and Dale Kuklinski.
Jose Sosa: J♣J♠
Dale Kuklinski: A♦J♦
Lucas Jumalon: 10♥10♠
Kuklinski took a huge lead on the A♥3♦5♦ flop with top pair and a flush draw.
The 3♣ turn changed nothing, and neither did the 8♠ river. Sosa secured the triple-up, while Kuklinski stayed alive after winning the side pot against Jumalon.
Nadav Bitton raised to 25,000 from early position before Qiang Xu three-bet the hijack to 75,000. Bitton called to see the 2♦6♥10♣ flop.
Bitton checked it over to Xu, who fired a continuation-bet of 40,000. Bitton stuck around with a call for the A♦ to land on the turn.
Bitton checked for a second time and then folded versus a 60,000 bet from Xu.
Nikolai Fal raised to 45,000 from the big blind. Edward Rosenbloom moved all in from the small blind. Fal made the all with less.
Nikolai Fal: K♥10♣
Edward Rosenbloom: A♥5♥
In the runout 3♥Q♣Q♥7♥K♦, Rosenbloom found a flush and a bounty on the turn.
David Dibernardi raised to 24,000 from under the gun, William Linden went all in for 105,000 from middle position, Dibernardi went deep into the tank before he eventually made the call.
William Linden: A♠A♥
David Dibernardi: A♣7♣
No sweat for Linden as the flop came 6♦10♥Q♠, the J♣ on the turn however gave Dibernardi a chance to chop the pot but no luck on the J♦ river.
