Without showdown, Randy Lew has been able to get back up to 200,000 and took a lot of chips off Dorin Rauta. The latter just three-bet to 11,500 after a raise by Paul Skipper and then folded to the shove of the Brit. Below are some further big stacks entering the last level of the night.

"A woman goes to see a doctor in the USA to get her test results. The doctor says 'First you have to pay me. It costs $302.' The woman reaches into her wallet and hands the doctor $300. The doctor looks at the money, looks at the woman, and says 'tumour'."
