On sixth street, Laveaga check-called a bet before doing so again on seventh street.
Dyment rolled over for a full, which Wang had beat with for the higher full. Akkari showed for the best low and Laveaga mucked for an 8-6 low. The result of the hand? Nobody busted, as Akkari survived and admitted he caught the last ace of the deck on seventh street.

Scott Clements completed with a five and picked up two callers including big stack Konstantin Puchkov. On fourth street, all three players checked before Clements bet fifth street and was called both ways. The remaining two streets were bet by Clements again, and while he picked up two calls on sixth street, two folds gollowed on seventh to award the pot to Clements without showdown.
Ismael Bojang joined the competition during this level and sat down on a table with Mihails Morozovs and Jan Christoph Von Halle.
In a recent seven-card stud hand, it was Brendan Taylor doing the work and he completed with an ace and kept betting until sixth street. The penultimate street eventually saw his opponent fold and Taylor raked in the pot without showdown.
Mikhail Semin pulled out his smart phone to check the updates of Event #10: $1,000 Tag Team No-Limit Hold'em and joked with Jon Turner and Dylan Linde. "Look guys, I am already in the last four," when showing them the screen. Kiryl Radzivonau has been doing most of the work and is still in contention for a bracelet while Semin continues with a below starting stack here on out.
