Back on Kudzmanas, he four-bet to 1,100,000, and Zanette responded with an all-in. Kudzmanas called, sending both stacks to the middle.
The board ran 9♣7♦8♥7♠2♣, and in the end, the hands held up for a split pot.

Hengtao Zhu opened the action on the button with 8♣6♣, raising to 240,000. Chris Hunichen called from the small blind holding 2♠2♥. In the big blind, Jan Tichacek saw his chance with 3♥3♦ and shoved all in for 1,600,000.
Zhu folded right away, but Hunichen took a moment and decided to call.
The flop came 9♥2♣5♠, giving Hunichen a set, but the A♣ on the turn brought a glimmer of hope for Tichacek. That hope turned into reality on the river when the 4♦ landed, completing a straight and keeping him alive in the tournament.

On the 8♦ river, Eychenne fired 750,000, and Sheils quickly called. Eychenne showed 5♥5♦ for a set, but Sheils tabled K♠K♣ for top set to scoop the pot, while Eychenne could only exhale, knowing it might have gone very differently.
The pot was 910,000 when the flop came 8♥5♥10♣. Danilo Velasevic took the lead from early position with a bet of 250,000 holding K♣J♦, while Adem Can check-called with 10♦9♣.
The 2♦ turned and Can checked, but Velasevic pressed on with a bet of 700,000. Can then shoved all in for 1,900,000, forcing Velasevic to fold and letting Can scoop the pot.
