8 Max Survivor 2K Bounty to ITM ($1,000)

Pham Bao open shoved utg+1 and saw Luc Ramos call off for his last 33,000 (6 BB) on the small blind.

Ramos behind, failed to catch up on board J♦ 4♠ 3♥ 7♥ 3♦ , sending him out a few spots short of making Day 2.

Andres Vasquez fired a 11,000 three bet against an early open and saw Pham Bao behind pad it further to 22,000. Initial raiser opted out and Vasquez shelled out the other 11,000.

Action on board 6♣ 5♣ 4♦ 2♠ 2♦ was checked all the way down to the river, where Vasquez led a bet of 16,000. Pham uninterested, snap folded, giving Vasquez the win with no showdown.

Pham Bao opened utg and called a 15,000 three bet from Nikolai Guliaev on the cutoff.

On board Q♦ J♥ 2♣ 9♣ , Pham took initiative and went ahead to lead both streets - 7,000 and 25,000. Guliaev called the first bet but gave it up after Pham showed no signs of slowing down.

With his seat still cold, Josip Simunic found his starting stack at risk right on his first hand of the day after a series of back and forth saw Simunic six bet jam his entire 40,000 in, called by Pham Bao for a flip.

Board 6♦ 2♦ 5♠ J♠ 9♦ ran safe for Simunic's ladies, crippling Pham in the process.
