Accorrding to Bernard Lee, it's been a boring past few levels without much action or hands coming his way. He did let us know about this one though.
After a short-stacked player jammed for 35,000 in chips, Lee re-shoved all in holding two jacks. His opponent held 
. Lee went on to flop a jack and hold from there to move up to 109,000 in chips.

Quickly rushing over we found Matt Marafioti's 
face up and a board of 
.
An opponent was cutting down chips equal to the amount that Marafioti had remaining, so one can only assume that he doubled through said player with his pocket nines.
Marafioti now has a little over 135,000 in chips.
The cards are back in the air!
Level: 17

We're on a 20 minute break. See you back in a bit.
On a flop of 
the action was checked to Carter Phillips who opted to fire out a bet of 15,000 with only Jerry Wong coming along.
When the turn landed the 
Wong led out for 30,000 and Phillips smooth-called to see the land on the river.
Wong moved all in for his last 130,200 and Phillips went deep into the tank before eventually making the call.
Wong tabled his 
for middle-pair, but it would be Phillips' 
for top-pair that would be enough to see him collect the pot and move to 520,000 as Wong made his way to the rail.
"If I go all in, I will have to push in my coffee!" stated Luigi Caramatti in his Italian broken-English.
The reason why?
Apparently he accidentally dropped a few chips into his coffee after raking a big pot in.
Fortunately for Caramatti however is that he has a healthy stack of 465,000, and a few chips missing (for the time being) won't hurt him too muck!
On a flop of 
Kevin Schaffel checked and Stephen Chidwick fired out 12,500 with Schaffel calling.
The turn of the was checked through to see the 
fall on the river and another check follow from Schaffel.
Chidwick fired out 25,500 and Schaffel made the call tabling his 
to best Chidwick's 
.
With that pot, Chidwick slipped to 22,000 as Schaffel climbed to 200,000 in chips.
We were unable to catch exactly how it happened, but all we know is that Veronica Dabul has hit the rail.
She is however leaving two of her fellow Team PokerStars Team Pro members behind with Humberto Brenes and Arnaud Mattern still sitting high in the chip counts
Dustin Pattinson raised from late position, only to be faced with a reraise from Michael Lytle in the cutoff. Frank Guida made the call and Pattinson moved all in. Lytle snap called and Guida came along for the ride. Pattinson and Guida were at risk with Lytle having both of them covered.
Pattinson: 
Lytle: 
Guida:
The flop came down 
giving Pattinson a set. The 
fell on the turn and the 
on the river.
Pattinson is up to 230,000 while Lytle was crippled to around 6,000. Guida was eliminated and will have to find solace at the payout desk.
