Break
The players are now taking their last break of the day. When they return we'll be playing two more levels before we bag, tag and hit the road.

Dani Stern moved all in from under the gun for his last 10,475 chips and got called by Jan Skampa in the small blind and also the player in the big blind.
Flop: and both players checked.
Turn:

Mr. David Diaz is our new chipleader with 121,000 chips.
Kevin Boudreau is now up to 86,000 chips after eliminating another opponent. We caught the action on the turn with a board reading .
The small blind led out for 8,500 before Boudreau moved all in with his opponent making the call.
Boudreau:
Opponent:
The small blind showed top two pair but Boudreau had spiked his gutshot for a Broadway straight. The river bricked and Boudreau sends another one to the ever-growing rail.

Things kinda went south for Greg "FBT" Mueller following the dinner break. After being one of our chip leaders earlier in the day, Mueller ran into a few hiccups before his final chips went into the middle, never to return.
Facing an opening raise to 1,700, Mueller made it an additional 5,000 to go in position. Play folded back to the original raiser who moved all in with Mueller snap-calling his remaining 8,000 or so chips.
Mueller:
Opponent:
The board fell to give his opponent a set and eliminate Mueller from the tournament.

Board: and Levy doubled up.
