Following the break something disastrous must have happened because Vanush Mnatcakanian's stack is a shadow of its former self.
He came back from the break as the chip leader with 145,000, good enough for 241 big blinds. However, he now sits on just 64,000 with a good chunk of his missing chips heading over to tablemate Mikhail Sokolov.
Other players at his table are also up in chips following the break.

Mikhail Galitsky moved all in for 9,800 from early position. Oleg Lipkin called and Valeriy Legchilo announced call and tabled his cards.
The cards were swiftly turned back over and the floor was called. The ruling was that Legchilo's call stood, but his hand would remain face down.
Both Legchilo and Lipkin checked the 
flop. Lechilo checked the 
turn and implored his opponent, using some vulgar language in the process, to check behind and he did so. The 
landed on the river.
Legchilo checked again, still spouting off profanities in Russian. Lipkin bet 5,000 and Legchilo folded.
Oleg Lipkin: 
Mikhail Galitsky: 
Lipkin's nines beat the pair of eights for Galitsky and Galitsky was eliminated.
In addition to that, following the vulgarity exhibited by Legchilo to both his opponent and the dealer, his one-round penalty was extended to two rounds.
