Matthew Davenport moved all in for 215,000 under the gun, George Tomescu reshoved on the button, and the blinds got out of the way.
Matthew Davenport: 10♠8♠ 
George Tomescu: A♠J♠
Davenport took the lead on the 10♣2♥9♠ flop and improved to two pair as the board ran out 4♣8♥ to earn a double up.
Level: 22
Blinds: 15,000/30,000

The remaining 43 players are now on a 15-minute break.
In a preflop confrontation Boris Tabiyev was all in from the button for roughly 215,000 and up against Zafer Sener in middle position who covered him.
Boris Tabiyev: 9♠9♥
Zafer Sener: A♠Q♥
Tabiyev got the better of the J♠J♦2♣10♥3♣ runout to score a full double up while Sener was left with five big blinds and would bust shortly afterwards.
Erdal Gulseven moved all in for 255,000 on the button as action folded to Boris Smuskevicius in the big blind. "First card is an ace," he said as he slowly peeled his cards.
"Second card is a spade," he added, taking a peek at his second. "King of spades," he said as he slammed in a call.
Erdal Gulseven: A♦J♣
Boris Smuskevicius: A♣K♠
Smuskevicius had Gulseven dominated and stayed in front on the Q♣4♣5♥6♠A♥ board to send him to the rail.
"What can I do?" Gulseven wondered as he headed for the rail right before the break.
Heads-up on a flop of 3♣7♠10♣, Damir Gabdullin bet 100,000 from the cutoff before Nenad Dukic raised to 225,000 in the big blind. Gabdullin reraised to 400,000 and Dukic called.
The turn was the K♦ and Gabdullin bet another 360,000. Dukic again called and checked the 8♦ river.
Gabdullin checked back this time and Dukic showed K♥10♠ for two pair. Gabdullin flashed A♦10♦ before mucking as Dukic took down the massive pot.
Jovan Kenjic raised to 50,000 under the gun and Dmitry Gromov called in early position. Emad Ghadamian then moved all in for 155,000 in the hijack and both Kenjic and Gromov called.
Kenjic and Gromov checked down the 8♦A♥6♣9♥4♠ board and Kenjic showed K♣K♠. Gromov's cards quickly hit the muck, but Ghadamian turned over A♠2♠ for a pair of aces to win the pot and triple up.
"That's how it begins," tablemate Krzysztof Spisak told him.
With two players seeing a final board of 9♥6♠2♥4♣Q♣ and roughly 230,000 in the middle, Maher Achour bet 225,000 in the big blind and was called by Antonio Aversa who was in early position.
Achour turned over A♦Q♥ for top pair to take the pot and continue adding chips to his stack.
Ufuk Kortan moved all in for 240,000 in the hijack and Ivan Zabiiakin called in the small blind.
Ufuk Kortan: A♥K♠
Ivan Zabiiakin: Q♦Q♥
The K♥ came in the window to give Kortan hope, but it was followed by Q♠10♥ as Zabiiakin made a set. The 10♠ turn improved Zabiiakin to a full house, while the 6♦ completed the board and sent Kortan to the rail.
