Nadya Magnus moved all in from the button for 184,000, and Alex Foxen called from the big blind with AcQd.

Magnus turned over Ah9d, and needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came KsJsJh5s2s, and since neither player had a spade, Foxen won the pot with his queen to eliminate Magnus in ninth place.

Alex Foxen  –  1,480,000  (59 bb)

Chance Kornuth

Chance Kornuth raised from under the gun, and Asher Neaman called on the button.

The flop was 7s5h5d, Kornuth continued for 45,000, and Neaman called.

The turn was the Qs, and both players checked.

Neaman tabled QdQc for queens full of fives, besting Kornuth’s JdJs for jacks full of fives to win the pot.

Chance Kornuth  –  42,000  (2 bb)

The next hand, Justin Liberto raised to 40,000 from the hijack and Kornuth called all in for 22,000 in the big blind.

Liberto:  AcJs
Kornuth:  3h3c

The board ran out KsKhJcTcAs, giving Liberto aces and kings to eliminate Kornuth on the money bubble.
