Shaun Deeb raised to 200,000 from the button and Dan Smith shoved from the big blind for what looked to be around 615,000. Deeb quickly made the call so the cards could be revealed.
Dan Smith: A?2?
Shaun Deeb: 8?8?
The flop came 4?J?Q? to give Smith a flush draw but keep Deeb ahead.
The turn was the 2? to give Smith some extra outs to stay alive but the river completed the board with the Q? to not help Smith as he was eliminated in thirteenth place. He rapped the table and wished the rest good luck before making his way out of the tournament area.

Chongxian Yang shoved from under the gun for 990,000 and Ben Heath decided to three-bet jam for more from the cutoff. The button and blinds quickly folded for the cards to go on their backs.
Chongxian Yang: A?7?
Ben Heath: 9?9?
The flop came 4?5?10? to keep Heath ahead.
The turn was the 6? for Yang to pick up the open-ended straight draw and nut-flush draw but the river completed the board with the 7? instead for a pair of sevens which wasn't enough to beat Heath's pocket pair of nines.
