While you wait for the action to kick back off (at around 7.20pm local time), learn more about Jonathan Karamalikis in the video below!
We arrived at the table just as Joe Cabret and Shaun Hughes were revealing their cards after a pre flop betting exchange. Cabret was at risk again holding 
against Hughes’ 
.
Cabret was on the brink of elimination when the dealer had spread out 
board. However, the miracle 
appeared on the river to give Cabret the better pair sending back over 300,000 in chips.

Could this become the greatest comeback in history?
Only time will tell, but this is how the story starts.
Joe Cabret was very unlucky when he was left with just 5,000 in chips after being all in preflop holding 
against Matthew Rolfe’s 
and Rolfe hit a wheel on a 
flop.
The next hand saw Cabret ante-up 2,000 and move all in for 3,000. Cabret then scooped up the pot holding 
on a 
board against Matthew Rolfe’s 
.
The next hand saw Cabret fold and then the next hand he was all in for 24,000 holding 
against Ashley Mason’s 
. The board ran out 
and now Cabret was up to around 60,000.
Yet again Cabret found himself all in, this time for 60,000 and holding 
against Jason Gray’s 
. The board ran out 
and with that Cabret had moved up to 138,000.
So, there you have it, Cabret went from a few hundred thousand, down to 3,000 and now back up above six figures.

.
Luu checked before Karamalikis made a continuation bet of 75,000 which was called. The brought another check from Luu as Karamalikis applied the pressure, sliding out another 145,000. This time Luu contemplated his decision for over a minute before making the call.
The fell on the river and both players checked before Karamalikis tabled his for a missed flush. Luu the rolled over his 
for a pair which was enough to win the pot.

The players have just been told they will have a 40-minute dinner break at the end of the current level.
[Removed:17] is still alive, but only just after doubling through Bowdy Tolhopf. It was a battle of the blinds with Tolhopf limping the small, before Yan pushed all in for 114,000 from the big. Tolhopf quickly called with as Yan sheepishly showed 
.
The flop was 
to give Tolhopf top pair but Yan picked up outs to a flush. The turn was the but the 
river gave five clubs to Yan for a lucky double. He's up to 250,000 with Tolhopf still one of our chip leaders at around one million chips.
