Konnikova and Riess Rising; Kitai Vanishes
On the former table of Davidi Kitai, a massive stack has emerged for Dmytro Shuvanov while the Triple Crown champion was among those that busted before the dinner break.
Maria Konnikova and Ryan Riess also boosted their stacks, the former without and the latter with showdown.
Konnikova was involved in three-way action to the 
turn and Tomas Jozonis bet 2,600. Arvydas Merfeldas called and Konnikova raised to 12,200. Jozonis reluctantly folded and Merfeldas did so as well, flashing the 
.
In the last hand before the break, a limped pot resulted in the elimination of Macsim Robert one table over from Konnikova. Adolfo Vaeza had limped the button, as did Robert in the small blind, and Riess checked the big blind. Riess check-raised a bet of Vaeza and two calls followed on the 
flop.
Only Robert check-called a bet on the 
turn and checked the 
river. Riess shoved for effectively 15,000, as that's what Robert had left. The Romanian ended up in the think tank for several minutes and the clock was called. Once tournament staff arrived to give Robert a 30-second countdown, he called and Riess turned over 
for two pair. Robert mucked 
and headed out of the tournament area.
