Daniel Tanco: A♥K♣
Hijack: K♦K♠
Tanco paired his ace on the 10♥2♦A♠ flop, and survived the Q♠ turn and 6♥ river to double up and avoid being eliminated on the stone bubble.

A player in late position raised to 20,000 and Chris Duvall called on the button.
The two players saw a 6♦9♥9♦ flop and the late position player continued for 15,000, which Duvall called.
The late position player would then slow down on the turn 5♦ and check to Duvall, who bet 40,000, prompting the late position player to move all-in over the top, with Duvall making the call.
Chris Duvall: 6♠6♥
Late Position Player: 9♠8♦
It was Yhatzee on the flop for Duvall, but the full house was still vulnerable to a few outs.
However, the 7♣ on the river locked up the double and not only kept Duvall's tournament hopes alive but also guaranteed a minimum payout of $1,246, as the bubble burst on the same hand.

The big blind player was all in preflop as he could not satisfy both his big blind and ante. Hua Wei Lin made the call from the button, and the small blind raised to 25,000. Lin called to the flop.
The flop came 5♦9♣Q♥, as the preflop aggressor checked to Lin. She led out for 35,000 and received a call.
While the 8♦ peeled off on the river, the small blind checked. Lin continued for 50,000 and received another call.
The river was the 5♠, and the small blind once again checked. Lin jammed all in and received a quick fold from her opponent. After a tournament director came over to verify, Lin revealed 6♣7♠ to beat her opponents Q♣3♠. All players now officially will make at least $1,246 for their effort today.

Preflop action opened with a player in the hijack raising to 26,000. He received two callers - a player in the small blind, and Erik Siuta from the big blind.
The flop came 5♥Q♥2♠. Action checked to the hijack, who pushed out a stack of 5,000-denomination chips. The small blind folded, and Siuta quickly moved all in for 344,000 before the hijack's bet could be counted. The hijack called instantly.
Erik Siuta: 5♦2♦
Hijack: K♥10♥
"Want to run it twice?" asked Siuta to laughs from the table. The 6♦ turn and 8♣ river changed nothing, and Siuta found himself raking in a massive pot.

Kimlong Lav moved his last 54,000 in the middle from early position and was called by a player in middle position.
The two would go heads-up, with Lav the player at risk.
Kimlong Lav: K♣5♠
Middle Position Player: A♠10♦
Lav would need to catch up to the ace-high of his opponent, and the 10♠8♥K♦ flop would do just that, propelling Lav into the lead.
However, he was still not out of the woods, as his opponent flopped a pair as well, and could still catch an ace or running straight cards for the win.
But he 7♥ turn and J♥ river would give Lav the double and save him from elimination.
