The players have been sent on a 75-minute dinner break with play set to resume at 8:46 p.m.
Action resumes in Level 17 with blinds of 5,000/10,000.
There are 65 players remaining, and an average stack of 347,000.
A few minutes ago, Emily Sun leaned back with her chair a little too far and it fell over with a loud bang as players from the next tabled glanced over to what had happened before helping Sun back up and grabbing the chair.
It would turn out to be a bad omen, as she became the next casualty before the dinner break.
Sun three-bet jammed for 80,000 on the button and hijack-raiser Concetta Rinaldi called.
Emily Sun: Q♦J♦ 
Concetta Rinaldi: 9♥9♣
The flip went to Rinaldi on the A♣6♣4♥4♣6♠ runout and Sun quickly walked out of the tournament area without even waiting for her payout card.
Mitch Garshofsky was the next to bust shortly after just before the dinner break.
TJ Laessig raised to 16,000 in early position before Adam Agaev three-bet to 42,000 on the button. Xiaoqiong Liu called in the small blind, while Maxwell Young then four-bet to 131,000 in the big blind. Only Agaev called.
The flop came 2♥8♠4♦ and Young continued for 71,000. Agaev called, and they both checked the 6♥ turn.
Young then bet 150,000 on the K♥ river, and Agaev folded this time. Young allowed him to choose one of his cards, and Agaev turned over the A♣. "Where's the other one?" tablemate Daniel Lazrus said.
Liu then admitted she folded queens preflop.
At another table, Nicholas Funaro got in his last 90,000 against Eric Yanovsky in a blind-versus-blind battle.
Nicholas Funaro: K♠6♠
Eric Yanovsky: 5♠4♣
The flop came 8♣3♠10♦, while Yanovsky hit a pair on the 4♥ turn to take the lead. The river was the 5♣, and Yanovsky improved to two pair to send Funaro to the rail.
George St. Lawrence opened to 16,000 under the gun before Andrew Porter three-bet to 40,000 on his direct left, and St. Lawrence called.
The Q♠Q♥Q♦ flop checked through to the 8♠ turn. St. Lawrence led for 40,000 before Porter announced all in as the covering stack for 130,000 effective.
St. Lawrence would fold after a minute's tank as Porter takes the chip lead into dinner break.
Maxwell Young raised to 17,000 in early position and Adam Agaev three-bet to 51,000 in the big blind. Young called, and they went heads-up to the 3♦Q♦9♦ flop.
Both players checked to the 5♥ turn, where Young bet 27,000. Agaev called and checked again on the 8♦ river, and Young checked back.
Young showed 6♠6♣, and Agaev mucked A♠K♣.
Todd Lewis raised to 18,000 in the hijack before James Tedrow three-bet to 42,000 on the button. Lewis then moved all in for 200,000, and Tedrow snap-called.
Todd Lewis: 9♦9♥
James Tedrow: Q♥Q♣
Lewis found himself dominated by Tedrow's queens, and he received no help on the J♦J♥7♣7♠2♠ board and was sent to the rail.
In a five-way limped pot to the 8♣7♥K♠2♣J♦ river, Logan Eisner bet from under the gun for 50,000 and won the pot.
At the same time one table over, Boris Vaynberg gathered his belongings to collect the min-cash.
Vaynberg's cards were mucked already and Robert Thomas claimed the chips. On a board of 10♦7♦4♦Q♠K♥, the A♣J♠ of Thomas had hit broadway on the river to score the knockout.
George St. Lawrence jammed the next hand for 182,000 and won the blinds, flashing the Q♣Q♥.
"It's got a little hot over here. Just incase you are waking up with kings or aces over there," St. Lawrence said.
On the 14th hand of the bubble, Paul Volpe opened from early position before Lewis Esposito jammed for 95,000 from the hijack. On the button, Drew O'Connell rejammed for 143,000, and Volpe folded.
Lewis Esposito: Q♠Q♣
Drew O'Connell: K♠K♦
Esposito was in rough shape with the dominated pair as the A♥4♦3♥ flop offered no help. Nothing changed on the 6♥7♠ runout, leaving O'Connell's kings best as Esposito leaves empty-handed while the remaining 71 players celebrated being in the money.
There are 26 minutes remaining in Level 16 with blinds of 4,000/8,000 and an average stack of 318,000. A dinner break will follow this level.
Adam Kim and Lewis Esposito went to the turn on a board of Q♣5♣Q♥J♣ when Kim bet 40,000 from the hijack. Esposito called in the cutoff.
The river was the Q♦ and Kim announced a bet of 160,000. Esposito snap-called and turned over K♣K♦, but Kim had A♦Q♠ for quads to win the pot.
Omar Taveras from the big blind and Boris Vaynberg from under the gun were heads-up to a completed board of A♥7♠2♥Q♥K♣ with about 50,000 in the middle.
Taveras led for 25,000 before Vaynberg put in a raise to 100,000. Tavaras would have around ten big blinds behind if he called incorrectly, but he stuck in the call after a minute's tank.
Boris Vaynberg: J♠J♣
Omar Taveras: J♦10♠
Vaynberg had just blockers to the straight, but Taveras rivered broadway and made the correct call on the end despite the flush also completing on the turn.
