Break Time

Level 12 : 0/0, 12,000 ante

The remaining players are heading on a 10-minute break.

There will also be a color-up of the red 1,000-denomination chips.

Quads for Shak

Level 12 : 0/0, 12,000 ante

Dominik Nitsche limped, as did Andrew Robl, but from the cutoff Richard Kirsch raised to 312,000.

Dan Shak shoved the button for 436,000, and once the two limpers folded, Kirsch called.

Shak: {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades}
Kirsch: {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}

The board ran out {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} and Shak doubled with quads.

Hawkins Eliminates Soverel

Level 12 : 0/0, 12,000 ante
Sam Soverel
Sam Soverel

Maurice Hawkins called first to act and Sam Soverel shoved all in on his left for around 650,000. Action folded back to Hawkins and he snap-called with {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}.

"Big flip," Soverel said, turning over {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}.

The {a-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{a-Spades}{8-Clubs} board missed Soverel, so he sent his stack to his neighbor and hit the rail.

Robl vs. Katz

Level 12 : 0/0, 12,000 ante

Cary Katz limped for 24,000, as did Dominik Nitsche. From the cutoff, Andrew Robl raised to 125,000, and when the action was back on Katz, he made it 300,000 total.

Nitsche folded, but Robl called as the flop landed {8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{A-Hearts} and Katz checked.

Robl bet 150,000, and after using a time extension chip, Katz folded.

Tosoc Doubles Through Koon

Level 12 : 0/0, 12,000 ante

Ryan Tosoc moved all in for 253,000 and was called by Jason Koon, who was on the button.

Tosoc: {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}
Koon: {k-Spades}{j-Hearts}

The {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{10-Diamonds} flop wasn't bad for Koon, but he was left with worthless king-high after the {q-Clubs} turn and {8-Diamonds} river.

Young Gets There on Soverel

Level 12 : 0/0, 12,000 ante

Sam Soverel raised to 90,000 in the cutoff and Justin Young called from early position. They checked to the turn on a board of {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} and Young bet 125,000. Soverel called and both players checked the {a-Spades}.

Young showed {q-Hearts}{j-Clubs} for a straight and Soverel flashed a card we didn't see and sent his hand spinning into the muck.

At another table, Maurice Hawkins eliminated Rainer Kempe.

Kempe Doubles Through Soverel

Level 11 : 0/0, 10,000 ante

Rainer Kempe got his last 262,000 in preflop with {q-Clubs}{10-Clubs} against the {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} of Sam Soverel. The {8-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{j-Spades} flop wasn't great for Kempe, but the {a-Diamonds} turn and {9-Diamonds} river ended with him making a straight to double.
