Back from the dinner break and we have already lost one player. The end of Jay Kim's tournament life began when Kim was left crippled when he lost an all in hand holding 
against 
. Kim had only a few thousand left after that hand and committed those chips just a short while after.
The last hand of the night for Kim was started by Daisuke Endo when he opened it up from early position. Kim put his last chips in directly to his left and then Josh Kim called in the small blind.
Kim and Endo then checked down a 
board, while the other Kim watched on. Josh Kim turned over which was enough to take down the pot and eliminate Jay Kim in 24th place.

The remaining 24 players are back from dinner break and the cards are in the air again.
Ciaran Carter was the last player eliminated before the dinner break in 25th place. The remaining 24 players are now bagging up their chips so the tournament staff can store them off the tables while the pot-limit Omaha event uses the space temporarily.
The 2012 APPT Seoul Main Event will resume play in 90 minutes. We'll see you back here then.

The latest player to hit the rail is Gabriel Le Jossec. The end of Jossec's tournament began when Sasa Zorc limped from middle position. Jossec then shoved from the small blind for 16,500. This prompted Michael Guzzardi to make the call. Apparently Guzzardi thought that Jossec's all in was for a little less than it was, because he thought that Zorc couldn't reopen the betting as per the APPT Seoul rules. Guzzardi was however mistaken and when it was back on Zorc, he bet enough to get Guzzardi out of the pot.
Zorc: 
Jossec: 
The board ran out 
, with no help coming for Jossec. A 26th place is worth KRW5,000,000.
