In the hijack, Luca Pagano opened to 14,000, but it was not going to get through. Next door, Yevgeniy Timoshenko shoved in for 90,500 total, and Pagano gave a token soak in the tank for a moment before releasing.

We've put two levels behind us, and the players are off for another quick break.
We just lost the 2010 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure Main Event champion. Harrison Gimbel, who won $2.2 million for winning this event two years ago, was just sent packing by David Assouline.
A player raised to 10,000 and Assouline reraised to 27,000 from the button before Gimbel moved all in for 130,000 from the big blind. The original raiser folded and Assouline called.
Assouline: 
Gimbel: 
The board ran out 
and both players made full houses. Unfortunately for Gimbel, his was worse than Assouline's and he was eliminated.
