Paul Tartak and Michael Oscuro have been dualling it out for a large part of the day. This time, after Oscuro min-raised preflop on the button, Tartak called from the small blind.
The flop came 
and Tartak check-called 15,000 from Oscuro. The turn brought the , Tartak checked, and Oscuro bet 60,000 this time.
"You have a hand every time", said Tartak and folded. Oscuro indeed had it and showed 
for the straight.
With 38 players left, and the top 36 getting paid, play has slowed down here for some time, no-one wanting to bust out and lose their chance at winning the $100,000 first prize.
Harry Basle has been eliminated, losing with pocket jacks against Kiavash Ababi's 
when an ace came on the flop for his last 147,000. One more player needs to be shed before the mincash of $2,100 will be awarded.

The board read 
and there was about 400,000 in the pot already. Oscuro moved all-in. Amiri took a while, thinking quietly out loud trying to work out whether to make the call as the players from the other tables crowded around, Amiri folded and Oscuro wins a big pot bubble.
