The decision was on Daniel Smiljkovic, who took a moment before declaring, "Double or nothing! If nothing, then I'll just buy in again before the day ends!" He shoved his stack, prompting a smile from Tomoki, who eventually made the call.

The J♠ river changed nothing, securing Smiljkovic a huge double-up and sending Altangerel to the rail.
