Richard Wilburn raised to 13,000 from the hijack before Adam Williams announced all in for 61,000 in the cutoff. After taking some time, Wilburn slid in the call and the hands were turned up.
Adam Williams: A♦Q♠
Richard Wilburn: K♠10♠
Williams stayed ahead through the 3♥J♥8♥ flop, with the 6♦ turn changing nothing. Wilburn then spiked the K♦ river, winning the pot and sending Williams to the rail.

Dominic Lake was all in from the big blind, facing initial raiser Steve Pheasant from under the gun.
Dominic Lake: A♦10♥
Steve Pheasant: 4♣4♦
Lake connected with the 2♦J♦10♦3♣6♠ runout, making a pair of tens to score the double-up. That left Pheasant with just 6,000 chips, which were sent to Lake on the very next hand.

Michael Jouaneh opened to 8,000 in early position before Jonathan Ares moved all in for 38,000 from the small blind. Dennis Firestone then announced that he too was all in, and Jouaneh got out of the way.
Jonathan Ares: 8♠8♦
Dennis Firestone: A♣K♠
Ares was flipping, and faced no danger on the 10♥5♠9♣4♠10♠ runout to earn more than a double-up.

Jebadiah Steward raised to 8,000 in early position, and Dennis Firestone made the call in the cutoff. Michael Jouaneh came along in the small blind, with Wolfgang Hafer also tossing in a call from the big blind.
The dealer fanned out the Q♣6♥A♠ flop, with action checking around to Firestone. After a moment, Firestone slid out a bet of 16,000. That was enough to produce folds from all three opponents, as Firestone collected the pot.

The remaining 17 players have been sent on a 15-minute break.
The 500 chips are being removed from play, while a new 25,000 chip will be added. Action will continue until just six remain.
Richard Wilburn opened to 6,500 in middle position, and Patrick Waters made the call in the hijack. Zachary Gruneberg defended his big blind, and checked on the K♦2♦5♠ flop.
Wilburn continued for 13,000, with both opponents making the call. Another check from Gruneberg followed the 8♥ turn, and Wilburn fired 46,000 into the middle.
Waters did not take long to fold, while Gruneberg flashed a king as he let his hand go.
"What was your kicker?" asked Wilburn.
"Ten," replied Gruneberg.
"Good fold," Wilburn said while showing K♠J♦ as he raked in the pot.
