The 27 remaining players have been sent on a 15-minute break.
Action was picked up on the turn with roughly 125,000 in the pot and the board showing 2♥3♥8♦J♠.
Anthony Gregg was facing a bet of 44,000 from Jesse Lonis, and elected to make the call.
After the 10♦ on the river, Lonis moved all in for his stack of 91,000, and Gregg quickly called.
Lonis tabled A♠A♥ to take the pot, as Gregg showed Q♥8♥ as he tossed his cards in the muck.

Ante: 12,000
Shannon Shorr raised all in for his stack of 105,000, and when it folded to the small blind Jeremy Becker, he said "You know, sometimes you need to gamble." and made the call. The big blind quickly folded to leave the players heads-up, with Shorr at risk.
Shannon Shorr: 7♣7♦
Jeremy Becker: A♦9♣
"Classic race" said Becker, and Shorr laughed and said "about as classic as it gets". Meanwhile, the flop came 9♦7♠8♥ to give Becker top pair but he was crushed after Shorr flopped a set. The J♣ on the turn gave Becker chop outs, but the 4♠ on the river was safe for Shorr, to give him the double up.

Jeremy Becker opened to 21,000 from under the gun, and when it folded to Anthony Gregg in the cutoff, he three-bet to 50,000. It folded back to Becker, who made the call.
Both players checked to the river after the board ran out 6♣7♣3♠7♠7♥. Becker then fired out 62,000, and after giving a second of thought, Gregg mucked to give the pot to Becker.
