The players are on a five-minute break.
With 490 players left, "hav0cLOL" is leading the way with 228,881.
Action folded to "all in 2526" and he opened for 2,200, which was met with a three bet to 5,065 by Steve "betrthanphil" Tripp in the small blind. From there, the big blind got out of the way, all in 2526 four-bet to 11,000, Tipp five-bet to 21,485, and all in 2526 six-bet shoved. Tripp called off his remaining 29,181 and discovered the bad news.

all in 2526: 

Just when things looked bleakest, the 

flop delivered Tripp salvation. Unfortunately for him, the
{ turn and
river have all in 2526 the runner-runner straight, eliminating Tripp in brutal fashion.
