Tournament officials announced that play on Day 1c will continue until there are 157 players remaining out of 1,044 total entries.
The tournament clock currently shows 340 still in the field.
With around 40,000 in the pot on a flop of 9♠5♦3♦, Stefan Lehner bet 17,000 from the button and Sercan Yasav called in early position.
The turn came the J♥ and Lehner bet another 32,500. Yasav then moved all in for around 70,000 and Lehner quickly called with K♥K♠.
Yasav turned over A♦J♦ for a pair and nut flush draw but missed the 4♠ river as he was sent to the rail.
At the same time at an adjacent table, Ramon Kropmanns and Harout Ghazarian were tangling in a massive pot that saw 65,000 already in the middle on a board of K♥K♣Q♣2♠.
Ghazarian bet 19,000 from under the gun and Kropmanns called in middle position. The river came the 3♣ and Kropmanns called for his last 55,000.
Ghazarian was forced to show just 4♥4♦, while Kropmanns had 10♣8♣ for a rivered flush to double up and leave Ghazarian with crumbs.

Ren Lin registered for Day 1c on dinner break but lasted less than one level after running into Marat Shafigullin.
Lin raised to 3,000 in the hijack before Shafigullin three-bet to 8,000 from the cutoff. "No Gamble, No Future," Lin said as he put his last 30,000 in the pot. Shafigullin snap-called.
Ren Lin: 9♠9♣
Marat Shafigullin: A♥A♠
"Goodbye," Lin said after seeing Shafigullin's aces. The Q♥K♠5♥6♥8♥ board didn't provide him with any help and Lin was sent to the rail.
"Ay, ay, ay, what a good hand," Lin said as he headed to the exit.
