Nu Teliani was already moving up among the leaders when she got involved in a pot with Jorge Confesor.

We missed the action but caught Confesor shoving a whole lot of chips across to Teliani. Everything went in the middle after Confesor shoved on the board holding for top pair and Teliani took the huge pot with for a nine-high straight.

Nu Teliani – 1,544,000 (257 bb)
Jorge Confesor – Eliminated in 32nd Place ($3,000)

On the second round of hand-for-hand, there was a three-way all in on Table 20 with some interesting hands.

Scott Heiligman, winner of this event in 2016, was all in for 241,000 from the hijack, Nadya Magnus was all in for about 55,000 from the big blind, and Max Young had them both covered in middle position.

Heiligman was drawing live to double and knock Magnus out but never found a sweat on the board. He was chopped up and eliminated on the bubble.
