There was no lengthy money bubble and we are in the money after a series of rapid eliminations following the break.
Just 72 players remaining and they are now all guaranteed a minimum of $533 for there efforts.
Carlos Matos was hovering in the middle of the pack for much of the night but he has caught fire following the break.
He just sent a player to the rail dragging in a massive pot to vault to the top of the chip counts with over 800,000.
Matos already holds two Borgata Poker titles and will surely be one to keep an eye as the field continues to thin down.
