Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Just 23 players remain at the final break of the day, with two scheduled levels remaining.
However, play must stop with 12.5% of the field remaining, which is the money threshold.
So play will be stopped tonight when 6 more players are eliminated and just 17 players remain.

A flurry of preflop action ultimately saw Toby Boas eliminate a player to build his stack into one of the contenders as the night draws closer to its conclusion.
Maxwell Young opened in early position to 6,000 which got calls from three players including Boas. Once action got to Tyler McKinney in the big blind he made it 26,000 to go.
Young folded, but Boas now moved all in. A player in middle position called for his last 75,000, and the rest of the table folded.
Middle position player: 
Toby Boas: 
After all the preflop action, Boas had somehow managed to get a bunch of chips in in a dominant situation.
The board ran out 
, and Boas' ace-queen high held up as the winner to win a significant pot before the break.

After Toby Boas raised on the button, Tyler Phillips defended his big blind with a short stack.
The flop came 
and Phillips bet 7,000. Boas raised to 14,000 and Phillips moved all in for 33,500, which Boas called.
Tyler Phillips: 
Toby Boas: 
Phillips two pair was well ahead and Boas would need some serious help to win the pot.
The 
turn changed nothing, but the on the river gave Boas a better two pair to steal the pot away from Phillips and send him to the rail.

Jacob Ferro's stack was recently seen over the 300,000 chip mark, but a pair of hands versus James Brown have brought him back a bit.
First, after Brown raised to 5,000 in the hijack, Ferro called in the small blind and the big blind called as well.
On the 
flop, action was checked to Brown, who bet 6,500. Only Ferro called.
The turn brought the 
and both players checked.
On the river , Ferro now led for 18,000, but he was met with a shove from Brown for a bit under 100,000.
Ferro quickly folded and Brown showed him 
for a rivered wheel.
On the following hand, the duo battled again with Brown extracting value on all three streets with a set of deuces to squeeze another 20,000 or so off of Ferro's stack.
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
David Burns found himself all in for his last 9,500 and facing two potential executioners in Mario Oliveira and Russell Quick.
Oliveira and Quick checked down the 
board and Burns proudly declared "full house", showing 
for sevens full of kings.
His opponents' hands went into the muck and Burns is back in play with a near starting stack.
