Aleksandar Tot opened to 80,000 from the cutoff and Maher Achour defended from the big blind.
The flop came K♥Q♣J♣. Achour checked, Tot bet 70,000 and Achour raised to 260,000. Tot made the call.
Achour moved all in on the 6♥ turn, covering Tot's remaining stack of 445,000. Tot made the call and was at risk.
Aleksandar Tot: Q♥9♥
Maher Achour: A♣8♣
Tot had made an excellent call with second pair but still needed to fade any ace, ten or club to avoid elimination. The 7♥ river was a brick and Tot scored a crucial double up through Achour on the final table bubble.

Tarmo Tammel opened to 80,000 from the hijack and Xixiang Luo raised to 620,000 from the big blind, leaving a single 5,000 chip behind. Tammel made the call.
The flop came Q♦9♦5♣. Tammel bet 40,000 and Luo called off with his last chip to put himself at risk.
Xixiang Luo: 8♣8♥
Tarmo Tammel: A♥10♣
Luo was in great shape to score a double but Tammel picked up a few more outs on the K♦ turn. The J♦ river gave Tammel a Broadway straight to send Luo to the rail and continue to build a monster stack.

With two players seeing a board of K♦6♦9♥K♠ and roughly 180,000 already in the middle, Anatoly Nikitin bet 120,000 from the big blind and was called by Shuang Luo on the button.
Nikitin bet again for 200,000 on the 2♦ river and was once again called by Luo.
Nikitin showed down K♣8♣ for trip kings which was enough to take the pot.

On the 8♣ turn Shornikau bet again for 135,000 and once again Kirichenko made the call.
The river was the 3♥. Shornikau checked, Kirichenko bet 185,000 and Shornikau nearly beat him into the pot.
Kirichenko could only show 10♣9♣ for a missed draw turned into a bluff while Shornikau turned over Q♥10♥ for top pair to take the pot.
