During the last round of hand-for-hand, there were multiple all-in and calls. At Table 70, action folded to Gregory Brown in the small blind, who opened to 25,000. Stoyan Madanzhiev in the big blind three-bet to 75,000, but Brown four-bet all in for over 900,000. Madanzhiev, who had 490,000 behind, made the call. Stoyan Madanzhiev: A♥K♥ Gregory Brown: 5♦5♣ Madanzhiev failed to improve on a board of 2♦9♠4♥2♣8♦, and he was eliminated.

Paul Merlette limped in on the button. Adriaan Jacobs raised to 4,000,000. Merlette called. The flop came 9♠8♥3♥ and Jacobs checked. Merlette bet 4,800,000, and Jacobs responded with a raise to 12,500,000. "Whatever, right?" Merlette mumbled before grabbing a stack of chips and then announcing that he was all-in. Jacobs snap-called with the bigger stack. Paul Merlette: K♦8♣ Adriaan Jacobs: J♥10♥ Merlette had flopped a pair of eights, but Jacobs was sitting on a flush draw.

Seong Han raised to 2,100,000 from the button and Paul Merlette folded his small blind. Adriaan Jacobs three-bet to 8,000,000 from the big blind. Han took some time: "Six? Seven?" he asked the dealer to confirm the raise. Han four-bet to 18,500,000. Now Jacobs took some time and made the call. The flop came 10♠9♥A♣, Jacobs check-called the 9,000,000 continuation-bet of Han. The turn was the 7♣ and Jacobs checked again.
