The button is in the three seat and the cards are in the air!
We have 51 minutes left in Level 24, and from there the players will discuss the dinner break.
It's been a slow start here at the final table.
The first four hands have been opened by players (Durrr twice) in late position, and every time the blinds released.
Tom Dwan raised to 78,000 from the cutoff seat, and he found a call from big blind Simon Watt.
Heads up, the flop came out 
, and Dwan continued out with a bet of 113,000. Watt tanked for just a minute, but he eventually released his cards into the muck, and that's another pot for Dwan.
He's up to about 2.65 million now.
Marvin Rettenmaier has opened the last two pots from early position and took them both down without contention.
Rettenmaier's chipped up to 730,000 chips.
Austin McCormick opened the pot to 66,000 before Kyle Winter moved all in for 425,000 total. The action came back to McCormick, and he thought it over for just a minute before releasing his cards into the muck.
Tom "durrrr" Dwan just received a walk in the big blind.
Somewhere Mike Matusow just cussed aloud.
