The 274 remaining players have been sent on their final 20-minute break of the night.
When they return, they will play two more 60-minute levels before the first starting flight wraps up.
Iegor Zarev raised to 2,000 from middle position and Daniel Sanchez Sautua three-bet the button to 6,000. Zarev called.
Zarev checked the Q♦Q♥4♠ flop and Sautua fired a continuation-bet of 4,000. Zarev check-raised to 11,000, which Sautua called.
Zarev didn't slow down on the 6♦ turn, choosing to bet 15,000. Again, Sautua called.
The 10♠ completed the board and Zarev jammed, putting Sautua to the test for his remaining 24,000. After a long tank, Sautua let his hand go.
Heads up to the 10♠7♥8♣ flop, Wellington Lessa Guedes checked from the small blind to Vito Recchimurzo in the hijack. Recchimurzo bet 3,500, which Lessa raised to 24,400 for an all-in wager.
Recchimurzo took some time, then called, putting his opponent at risk.
Wellington Lessa Guedes: Q♦9♦ 
Vito Recchimurzo: 10♦3♦
Recchimurzo's top pair remained in the lead on the 2♥ turn, but Lessa found a straight on the J♦ river to double up.
Tibor Nagygyorgy opened the button to 2,200 and Jeff Kirsch jammed the small blind for 22,000. Przemyslaw Cebrat moved all in over the top for about 45,000, forcing Nagygyorgy to fold.
Jeff Kirsch: J♦J♥
Przemyslaw Cebrat: A♠K♥
Kirsch's pair fell behind on the K♠5♥7♦ flop as Cebrat paired his king.
The A♥ turn improved Cebrat to two pair, leaving Kirsch needing one of the two remaining jacks to survive.
The 6♥ river was no good for Kirsch, and all of his chips were shipped across to his neighbor Cebrat.
Jamie O'Connor had flat-called an earlier open to 2,000 in the cutoff. Francois Del Peso-Mancebo then three-bet to 9,000 in the big blind, after which the action folded to O'Connor.
He back-jammed all in, seeing Del Peso-Mancebo snap off his stack of 45,000.
Francois Del Peso-Mancebo: A♥A♣
Jamie O'Connor: 8♥8♣
O'Connor had run into the preflop nuts, but it did not matter as the 6♠9♥2♥7♦10♦ runout rivered him a straight to send Del Peso-Mancebo to the exit.
Arriving on a 8♦9♣5♣J♥4♦ river, Paawan Bansal checked from under the gun to Paul Tait on the button, who fired a pot-sized bet of 29,000.
Bansal spent some time in the tank, then called for over half his stack. Tait tabled 10♣7♣ for a turned straight, prompting Bansal to muck his cards in defeat.
Jorge Ribeiro was all-in preflop for about 22,000 from early position, with Antonio Santichio holding the covering stack and looking to send him to the rail from the small blind.
Jorge Ribeiro: J♦J♠
Antonio Santichio: A♠K♥
Santichio was the one out of his seat, despite Ribeiro being the player at risk. A tablemate quickly spotted the danger and warned Ribeiro, "Oh no, he's stood up."
The dealer spread the monotone 7♠3♠5♠ flop, giving Santichio even more ways to bring Ribeiro's tournament to an end.
Ribeiro decided to stand up himself, prompting another tablemate to ask, "Do you have a backpack?" The table clearly knew the hierarchy of poker superstitions, with the backpack trick capable of trumping the stand-up move and perhaps persuading the poker gods to spare Ribeiro from the rail.
Much to his disappointment, Ribeiro didn't have one. Fortunately, the poker gods were willing to overlook the technicality as the J♥4♦ completed the board, with the jack giving Ribeiro a set and a double-up to almost 50,000.
