Kayhan Mokri opened to 125,000 from the button, and was faced with a three-bet to 480,000 by Masashi Oya in the big blind. Mokri called.

On the K?Q?6? flop, Oya fired out a bet of 350,000. Mokri quickly called.

The 5? rolled off on the turn, and after some thought, Oya slid out a bet of 525,000. Mokri again called speedily.

The 5? river completed the board, and Oya took his time to count his remaining stack, before putting out a bet of 800,000, leaving himself around 120,000 behind.

Mokri pondered the spot for a moment, before moving all in. Oya sighed loudly and sat back in his chair. He gave it about 30 seconds thought before flicking the remainder of his stack in.

Mokri showed Q?8? for the rivered flush to take the pot, while Oya had Q?J? for second pair queens. Mokri has a big chip advantage heading into three-handed play.

The tournament director also informed the players the clock will now be reduced to 30-minute levels.

Action folded to Luca Marki in the cutoff, who opened to 125,000. Sergey Lebedev was on the button, and he produced a three-bet to 500,000, leaving himself around 210,000 behind.

Action folded back to Marki and he quickly moved all in, and Lebedev called it off.

Sergey Lebedev: A?J? All in
Luca Marki: A?K?

Lebedev was in trouble with a dominated ace, and the Q?A?Q?J?9? runout sent the pot to Marki with aces-up and the better kicker, as Lebedev's paired jack was counterfeited by the queen-paired board.

The flop came 8?3?7?. Sanchez checked, Neves bet 80,000, then Sanchez check-raised to 225,000, which Neves called.

The turn was the 4?. Sanchez pushed a stack of black chips into the middle, putting his opponent all in. Neves went into the tank and then made the call.

Sanchez showed K?8? for top pair and Neves flipped over J?10? for a flush draw, gutshot straight draw and overcards. He had all the outs, but the river came the 8?, giving Sanchez trips to win the pot.

Neves was eliminated from the tournament in sixth place for �258,400.

Action folded to Kayhan Mokri in the cutoff, who opened to 125,000. Sergey Lebedev defended his big blind.

On the K?10?3? flop, Lebedev check-called a bet of 90,000 from Mokri.

The 9? came on the turn, and it was checked through by both players.

On the 5? river, Lebedev led out with a bet of 150,000. Mokri used a time bank before moving all in with the far bigger stack, and with Pedro Gois Neves shorter than Lebedev.

Lebedev took a time bank, looking slightly pained, before he let go of his hand.
