Break Time

Level 27 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Originally the tournament was going to take a 5-minute break to do a color-up and then the longer 15-minute break was going to be taken once the final table was reached.

With Henrik Tellving being eliminated while the other table had already gone on break, the plan is to continue with the 5-minute break as planned, then players will return and re-draw for the final table before taking an extended break before the official final table begins.

Joe Serock Takes the Chip Lead

Level 28 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

On the first hand of play, the action folded to Joe Serock in the small blind and he raised to 160,000 and picked up the big blind and antes.

On the second hand he opened his button to 110,000, and once the blinds folded, Serock showed his {9-Spades}{8-Spades}.

With those two pots, Joe Serock is now over the 3 million chip mark and holding the chip lead.

Flush for Jordan Cristos

Level 28 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

From under the gun, Joe Serock opened to 100,000 and both Andrew Warren and Jordan Cristos called from middle position and the big blind respectively.

The flop landed {8-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{A-Clubs} and both Cristos and Serock checked to Warren who bet 200,000. Cristos called, as did Serock, and then the {4-Diamonds} was checked through by all three players.

The river landed the {5-Clubs} and Cristos bet out 150,000 and Serock called. Warren folded, and then Cristos tabled his {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for a flush, and Serock mucked.

With that pot, Cristos is now over 3.7 million, while Serock drops to 2.5 million.
