Foxen then four-bet to 2,875,000 and Zack asked how much he was playing before five-betting all in. Foxen called for 10,200,000.
Alex Foxen:
Dan Zack:
The flop gave Zack a flush draw and a shot at bursting the Super High Roller bubble, but the , runout was safe and Foxen looked visibly relieved as he doubled into the chip lead.

Henrik Hecklen:
Sam Soverel:
It was a coin flip and Hecklen took the lead on the flop. The on the turn and the on the river were no help to Soverel who sent over a double up.

Ivey bet again this time for 550,000 on the turn and again Foxen called. Both players checked the river and Ivey tentatively turned over for top pair. However, it was good and he took down the pot.

Nick Petrangelo:
Alex Foxen:
Petrangelo was hoping to be in a dominating position but they were simply just coin-flipping. The flop came and Petrangelo picked up some counterfeit outs. The on the turn was of no help and the on the river meant Petrangelo was eliminated on the money bubble.
Alex Foxen raised it up in early position and Henrik Hecklen called from the big blind. The flop came and Hecklen check-called a bet of 350,000 from Foxen.

Hecklen turned over for a flopped straight and Foxen pitched his cards into the muck.
Martin Kabrhel limped in from early position which invited Phil Ivey and Brandon Steven to come along as well. Adrian Mateos raised to 1,100,000 on the button and only Kabrhel called.
The flop came and Kabrhel checked to Mateos who bet 700,000. Kabrhel raised to 3,175,000, leaving just 25,000 chips behind. Mateos thought for a minute and then just called.
The turn was the and Kabrhel stuck in his last chip. Mateos called and the cards were tabled. "What do you have Adrian?" Kabrhel asked before the cards were shown.
"Hopefully pocket fives," Alex Foxen chimed in.
Kabrhel showed for a pair of tens and a flush draw. Mateos revealed for two over cards and a straight draw. The river was the and Kabrhel held on for a double up much to everyone's shigrin.
"Well I'm glad everyone here was cheering for me," Kabrhel piped up. "Thanks for the support. Even you Phil, cheering for me." Ivey just looked sideways and gave Kabrhel a stare but said nothing.
