Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 2,000 ante
With 50,000 in the middle on the river with the board reading 8♦8♠2♥2♣6♠, Carson Wieland checked his big blind to William Leffingwell who bet 40,000.
Wieland responded with a check raise to 100,000, which covered Leffingwell's remaining 42,000 behind.
Leffingwell thought for a moment then folded his hand, leaving himself as one of several short stacks in the field as play has tightened up since the players returned from break.

At the break an hour ago, Kyle Arora had the second biggest stack in the room, while Lawrence Chang was one of the shorter stacks.
Their fortunes have switched in the last two levels, as Chang has rebuilt in large part through Arora.
In a recent pot with about 60,000 in the middle on a completed board of K♥J♦2♣9♣8♦, Arora checked his big blind to Chang, who bet 45,000.
Arora thought for a bit and then slid in a call.
Chang showed A♦10♥9♠9♦ for a turned set of nines to take the pot and continue his successful rebuild.

Just after Jin Lee scored a huge double-up to take away Sung Keem's chip lead, bodies fell quickly on both tables to suddenly end what potentially looked to be a lengthy night.
Joseph Dulaney first eliminated Zachary Hammons, which was followed by Carson Wieland felting Southisak Seunsom to take over the chip lead that was held by Keem.
Finally, Matthew Liu became the bubble boy at the same time on the other table to end play without the need for hand-for-hand play.
Stay tuned for end-of-night chip counts and a recap of the day's action.
