From the button, Lee Goldman raised to 85,000, and Daniel Shiff flatted in the small blind. In the big, though, Ruben Visser squeezed in another raise to 245,000 total, and that drew two folds and a push of the chips in his direction.

Faraz Jaka opened the pot to 85,000, and David Granados called from the big blind to see a heads-up flop.
It came 
, and Granados check-called a bet of 115,000. Jaka bet another 220,000 on the 
turn, and Granados called again to see the 
on the river. Now it went check-check, and Granados showed his 
first. No good. Jaka's 
had that out-kicked, and he'll drag in a pretty nice pot all things considered.

First in from the cutoff, David Granados stuck his last ~540,000 chips into the pot, and Anthony Gregg isolated him with a reraise from the small blind. When the cards were turned up, Granados saw that he was flipping for his tournament life.
Showdown
Granados: 
Gregg: 
Granados couldn't find anything painted on the 
board, and he's been relieved of his remaining stack. He'll trade the chips for a $58,000 check, and his Main Event is done in 16th place.

John Dibella started the action with a raise to 90,000 from the hijack seat, and Sam Greenwood reraised all in for about 675,000 two seats over. Two more seats over from him, Faraz Jaka woke up with 
in the big blind, and he reraised all in, getting heads up with a power hand. Greenwood could only show 
, and his tournament life was in jeopardy.
Jaka's kings were never in trouble as the board ran 
, and Greenwood is no more. He's been bounced out in 15th place, and Jaka has rebounded his chip stack back up to 2.8 million and back in contention for the overall lead.

Nikolaos Alafogiannis is in no mood to be eliminated. He's been all in more times than we can count on one hand today, and he just got his chips in again a moment ago. When Alex Fitzgerald opened to 105,000, Alafogiannis stuck his last 390,000 in there, and Fitzgerald made the call with his big stack and a chance to send the pesky Alafogiannis off.
Showdown
Fitzgerald: 
Alafogiannis: 
The board ran out full of baby cards, coming 
, and Alafogiannis ends up with a wheel to snag the double. He's back up close to 900,000 in the most recent trend, and Fitzgerald drops a little chunk to slip back around 2.55 million.

David Bernstein came into the pot raising to 105,000 from middle position, and both Lee Goldman (button) and Anthony Gregg (big blind) came along to a three-way flop.
The dealer spread out 
, and it checked through to the turn. Now Bernstein put out another bet of 170,000, but Goldman made a raise to 450,000. Gregg and Bernstein both folded immediately, and Goldman inches up a bit further.
In early position, John Dibella made the opening raise, and both blinds — David Bernstein and Phil D'Auteuil, respectively — came along with calls to see a three-handed flop.
The 
rolled off the deck, and action checked to the raiser. Dibella continued out with 200,000 more, and Bernstein check-called. D'Auteuil wanted to play for more, though, and he reraised them both to 450,000. Dibella shoved all in, Bernstein folded out of the way, and D'Auteuil made the call to put Dibella at risk for 1.16 million total.
Showdown
Dibella: 
D'Auteuil: 
D'Auteuil had an overcard and the flush draw to work with, but the turn and 
river were too low and too red to be of any use. That's a big double for Bernstein, and it vaults him all the way up into the top few places on the overall leader board.

David Bernstein started the action with a raise to 110,000 in the cutoff, and John Dibella defended his big blind. Heads-up, they saw the flop bring , and Dibella check-called another 110,000. On the turn, he check-called another 200,000, and the was the river card. Check-check now.
Dibella showed his 
first... and Bernstein froze. After a couple seconds, it became clear that king-jack high was the best hand, and Bernstein eventually slid his cards back into the muck.

Phil D'Auteuil raised to 105,000 to lead the action, and Lee Goldman flatted on the button. From the small blind, John Dibella squeezed all in. Yep, he just went ahead and shoved it in there, and both D'Auteuil and Goldman decided this was not the spot to gamble for it all. They folded qiuckly, though Goldman looked a bit dissatisfied, and Dibella has moved into the chip lead with just shy of 3.5 million.
It's worth noting that nearly six hours into Day 5, nobody else has reached the 4-million chip mark that Faraz Jaka did yesterday evening. But 3.46 million is not too shabby for Mr. Dibella right now.
