The remaining 41 players are on the first 15-minute break of the day.
Stephen Cherry raised to 11,000 in middle position, David Kingsley three-bet to 30,000 in the hijack, and Cherry called.
The flop came 7♠5♠3♥ and Kingsley continued for 35,000. Cherry called and the 10♥ fell on the turn. Kingsley then moved all in and Cherry snap-called for 90,000.
Kingsley showed K♣K♥, but Cherry had 10♦10♣ for a turned set. The river was the 6♠ and Cherry doubled up, leaving Kingsley on an extreme short-stack.
Simon Davidson three-bet to 30,500 in the big blind before Robert Shields moved all in from middle position. Davidson tanked for a minute and eventually called for his last 80,000.
Simon Davidson: A♥J♣
Robert Shields: A♣A♦
Shields had woken up with aces to leave Davidson at risk of elimination as the board ran out 5♣10♥7♥6♠8♦. Davidson stopped to check if he had made a straight before heading for the exit.
With around 50,000 in the pot on a board of 6♥K♣J♣Q♣, David Gee bet 12,500 from the button before Timothy Slater moved all in for 120,000 in the big blind. Gee quickly called.
Slater showed 9♣7♣ for a flush, but Gee had A♣8♣ for the nut flush and Slater was already drawing dead by the 6♣ river as Gee raked in the massive pot, moving up past 600,000.
Yuet Wong raised to 8,000 in the cutoff, Terence Etim moved all in for 38,000 in the big blind, and Wong called.
Terence Etim: 8♦8♠
Yuet Wong: Q♣J♠
The flop came J♥2♥7♦ and Wong took the lead with a pair of jacks. The rest of the board ran out 5♦2♦ and Wong took the pot to send the UFC veteran to the rail.
Bogdan Moldovan was on the button and got around 100,000 in the middle before the flop against Zhicheng Miao in the small blind.
Bogdan Moldovan: A♣3♣
Zhicheng Miao: A♠K♥
The 5♠9♣5♥ flop left open the possibility of a chop, while Moldovan also picked up a flush draw on the 6♣ turn. The river, though, was the Q♠ and Miao took the pot with his king-kicker to send Moldovan to the rail.
Athir Ali, Michael Rosaman, and Adam McNally were also recently eliminated.
Olabode Ayegun moved all in for 30,000 in early position and Szymon Wysocki called in the cutoff.
Olabode Ayegun: K♦Q♠
Szymon Wysocki: K♣J♣
Both players made two pair on the K♠2♦9♦2♣7♣ board, but Ayegun's queen-kicker was enough to earn him a double up.
Wysocki was left with just 15,000 after the hand and was soon all in against Jonathan Roberts.
Szymon Wysocki: A♥10♠
Jonathan Roberts: A♦7♣
Wysocki took a big lead on the 10♥9♣3♥ flop with top pair, but Roberts hit a running straight on the 6♥ turn and 8♠ river to send Wysocki to the rail.
