With 38,000 in the pot on board 9♦ 4♥ 6♥ 4♠ , Patrik Demus led for 16,000, called by Evgenii Chzhen. On river 5♠ , Demus went all-in for his last 17,500 and instantly knew he was dead following a snap call from his opponent. Demus shows A♠ 5♥ , crushed against Chzhen's A♥ 9♥ .

Tsz Kin Heung opened to 2,500 from early position and saw both Tom Henricus and Patrik Demus on the blinds come along on flop 8♦ 6♠ 2♥ . Checked to Heung, he bet 2,600, raised by Henricus to 6,900. Demus behind, re-raised all-in for 21,200 total, leaving only Henricus priced in to make the call.

Demus is ahead with top pair 9♥ 8♥ against Henricus' 9♦ 6♦ , up until the runout came 4♣ 6♣ to knock the Hungarian out entirely.

Down short, Peter Park risked his remaining 8,200 and was up against initial raiser Patrik Demus' pocket pair. Demus quickly landed the advantage on flop 5♦ 4♣ 3♥ yet booked the loss as the runout 2♠ 9♦ gave Park a wheel straight.

Beng Hong Ker opened from the cutoff to 700 and was joined by both players on the blinds. On board 4♣ 6♦ 9♥ T♥ 5♦ , Ker double barreled - 1,100 and 2,200, with only Patrik Demus check calling both streets. Ker slowed down by the river with a check back, and mucked as Demus tabled top pair A♦ T♦ .
