Among the players to use the last chance at late registration is Finnish High Roller Patrik Antonius, who has been playing in this week's Triton Events at the Sochi Casino.
Almost all players are back in their seats in both rooms and the new feature tables are being prepared. The players were also given the opportunity to forfeit their current stack and re-entry with a fresh 1,000,000 stack. Action is expected to resume shortly.
According to the screens there are 361 players out of 908 entries remaining and they have just gone on a 45-minute dinner break. Once the cards go back in the air, the re-entry and registration period will end.
Ilia Kuteinokov raised to 70,000 first to act and picked up three callers in Evgeniy Nekrasov, Maxim Lykov in the small blind and Vladimir Ovcharov in the big blind. The flop came and action checked to Kuteinokov, who bet 75,000. Nekrasov called, Lykov folded and Ovcharov also came along.
On the turn, Ovcharov bet 80,000, which just Nekrasov called, and the on the river brought a bet of 125,000 by Ovcharov. That was enough to claim the pot without showdown, as big stack Nekrasov elected to fold.
