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

With action right on the bounty bubble, Patrik Demus open shoved 56,000 (11 BB) and was called by Suguru Sawada on the big blind.

Demus ahead, unfortunately, bound for the exit as board A♥ A♣ T♠ 5♦ K♥ rolled trip aces for his opponent.

All remaining 38 players enter the knockout phase, with each one carrying a $2K bounty on their head.

Suguru Sawada opened utg+1 and gladly called off Robert Sherwood's 49,000 (12 BB) all-in from the big blind.

Sherwood drawing slim, headed out as board A♥ T♥ Q♥ 5♥ J♦ left him behind all the way.

A button vs blind battle saw Shiina Okamoto commit her remaining 76,000 (19 BB) and was up against Suguru Sawada's pocket pair for a flip.

Board 5♦ A♦ K♣ T♠ 7♦ landed in favor of the overcards, shipping Okamoto a nice boost.
