Oliver Weis: A?A?10?10?
Nick Schulman: K?J?7?6?
The full board ran out 7?7?Q?9?K? and with a full house Schulman sent Weis to the rail with a cold deck.

Three ways to the Q?Q?7? flop, Isaac Haxton checked and Tyler Brown bet 160,000. Nikolaos Lampropulos folded and Haxton called. The A? turn was checked and the J? fell on the river. Haxton checked again and Brown bet 575,000.
Two time banks later, Haxton folded and the table headed into the scheduled break.
Matt Glantz raised to 210,000 and then called all-in when big stack Michael Moncek reraised.
Matt Glantz: A?K?K?2?
Michael Moncek: A?K?7?2?
"I was going for sevens," Moncek joked but found none of them on the J?J?4? flop. The A? turn made a split pot likely but the J? river gave Glantz a full house, as he doubled for 340,000.
Moncek then clashed with Biao Ding in a battle of the blinds when they got it in after a 10?9?3? flop.
Biao Ding: Q?J?9?8?
Michael Moncek: K?8?7?6?
The 7? turn and 10? river improved Ding to a jack-high straight to double for 625,000 before they went on a scheduled break.
Chad Eveslage opened in late position to 210,000 before the action moved to Nikolaos Lampropoulos on the button, who three-bet to 720,000. It was back on Eveslage, who burned a time bank and then moved all in. Lampropoulos snap-called.
Chad Eveslage: 2?4?A?Q?
Nikolaos Lampropoulos: A?A?J?Q?
The full board ran out 6?Q?8?7?8? and Eveslage made his exit at the hands of Lampropoulos.
Matthew Wantman raised to 210,000 from under the gun. It folded to Nick Schulman on the button and he reraised the pot to 750,000, Wantman then called all-in.
Matthew Wantman: A?A?8?4?
Nick Schulman: K?Q?Q?10?
The 5?3?2? flop gave Wantman a wheel and Schulman needed running cards to a flush or full house. Neither came on the 9? turn and 6? river for Wantman to double for 685,000.
With 510,000 in the middle to the K?10?8? flop, Ioannis Angelou-Konstas checked out of the big blind. Michael Moncek bet 200,000 on the button and the Greek reluctantly splashed in his short stack.
Ioannis Angelou-Konstas: Q?10?7?6?
Michael Moncek: K?4?3?2?
Moncek was ahead with the top pair against Angelou-Konstas with middle pair and a gutshot on a three-card flush flop. The J? turn gave Angelou-Konstas some more outs to a straight but the K? river only improved Moncek to trips kings.
