Gunning for two outs, the runout 8♥ 5♣ sealed Sim’s defeat with ten players left to the money.

Dominated, the A♠ 9♠ 8♣ flop changed nothing for Sim with the runout 2♥ K♠ improving Tabucal’s top pair to two pair for the pot.

Utg+1 Fujii Takuto open shoved 11,000, followed by another all-in from Bucinkas Darius, and a quick call from big blind Ivan Tabucal.

The board ran jack-high with Tabucal raking in the 60 BB pot.

After utg Daniel Johnston limped, button Kim Jaegwang opened to 2,400 and was followed by a three bet to 8,000 from big blind Ivan Tabucal. Both players join in and see a flop of J♣ J♠ 8♦ . Checked to Kim, he bets all-in for 9,400 and Johnston with a call with K♥ Q♣ . Kim ahead with 7♣ 7♥ for two-pair, was eliminated shortly after the runout Q♥ 5♦ completed the board.

After raising utg to 12,000, Ivan Tabucal called a 68,000 all-in from Jose Cheung with A♣ Q♣ . Whilst a premium hand, it was no match for Cheung’s A♦ A♥ and was left with little hope after the board ran low and dry.
