Players are going on a 50-minute dinner break. Action should resume around 11:20 p.m. local time.
The tournament clock currently shows 52 entries today, with 26 players remaining.
Around 30,000 was in the pot as David McConachie and Axel Lopez saw the river on a completed board of 6♣8♥10♦7♣8♣. McConachie then bet 15,000 from the button, and Lopez came back with a raise to 80,000 in the big blind.
"Only one hand. Two hands, actually," McConachie said as he went deep into the tank, taking several minutes to consider the decision.
"You just look so comfortable. Most people I would call," he eventually said to Lopez, tossing A♣4♣ into the muck. Lopez showed him 10♥8♠ for a rivered full house as he took in the pot.

Javier Garcia three-bet to 5,500 in the small blind and Nacho Cuesta called under the gun.
The flop came J♠4♣4♠ and Garcia continued for 5,000. Cuesta called to the 9♠ turn, where Garcia bet another 8,000. Cuesta again called.
The river was the 8♣ and Garcia moved all in. "You can call time," Cuesta said as he tanked for nearly five minutes before calling for his last 12,500 with 10♠10♦. Garcia could only show A♦6♥ for a bluff as he handed over the double up.
At the same time on another table, a pot of around 60,000 was brewing between Jorge Ufano and an opponent in middle position on a board of 7♣A♠2♦2♣7♠. Ufano then bet 44,000 from the big blind, and his opponent took a few minutes before calling.
Ufano showed A♦Q♦ for two pair, while his opponent mucked A♣J♣ and handed over the massive pot.

Heads-up on a board of 4♥4♦5♦9♣, a player in the big blind bet 10,500 and Carlos Perez-Dosio called in early position.
The river was the K♠ and the big blind moved all in. Perez-Dosio spent a minute in the tank before calling, and his opponent could only show 6♥2♥ for a bluff. Perez-Dosio turned over 8♥8♣ to win the pot.
The stacks were counted down and Perez-Dosio barely had his opponent's remaining 27,000 covered, earning him the knockout.

Antonios Loupasis three-bet to 5,000 in early position and was called by an opponent on the button and Andrea D'Agostino under the gun.
Loupasis continued for 3,000 on the Q♠9♦10♦ flop and the button raised to 8,000. D'Agostino called, while Loupasis then moved all in for 33,500. The button snap-called, and D'Agostino got out of the way.
Antonios Loupasis: A♦Q♦
Opponent: K♦4♦
Loupasis had flopped top pair with the nut flush draw, while his opponent was drawing thin holding K♦4♦ for an inferior flush draw. The 4♣ turn gave the button some outs, but Loupasis held on the 7♥ river to double up.
