Players are on a 15-minute break. A total of 26 players remain. A three-table redraw will occur following the break. Play will resume at the 30,000/60,000 level.
Joshua Brower opened from early position before Jackson Morisey jammed from the small blind for 415,000. Brower made the call to put Morisey at risk.
Jackson Morisey: 9♣9♥
Joshua Brower: A♦K♥
Morisey needed to fade the overcards of Brower. The flop came clean for Morisey when it fanned out 2♦J♥4♣.
The 2♠ turn was of no significance, and the Q♣ river sealed it for Morisey as he doubled up.
Joseph Guastella shipped it for 220,000 from early position, and he was called from the big blind by John Montgomery to be at risk.
Joseph Guastella: 7♦7♠
John Montgomery: K♠6♣
Guastella was in a good position to double, and the 10♠2♦A♥ flop kept him ahead.
The 4♣ turn was safe, and as Guastella signalled to keep the board low, Montgomery called for a king and the king came as the K♦ hit the river to eliminate Guastella.
Level: 21
Blinds: 25,000/50,000
Ante: 50,000
The pot had already bloated to approximately 700,000 on a board that read 7♥5♥10♥7♠.
John Montgomery jammed on the turn and was called by Joon Park after some considerable thought to put himself at risk.
Joon Park: A♣10♠
John Montgomery: J♠J♣
Montgomery was ahead and stayed ahead on the 8♥ river to secure a big pot and push well past the two million mark.
Jonathan Park opened the action with a raise to 80,000 from the cutoff, and Joshua Bozarth decided to call from the big blind.
Bozarth opted to jam for approximately 250,000 on the Q♥7♦K♥ flop. Park quickly made the call to put Bozarth at risk.
Joshua Bozarth: 8♣7♣
Jonathan Park: A♣Q♦
The A♠ turn put Bozarth even further behind, and the 8♠ river was the final card of his tournament run as Park took down the pot.
Joseph Guastella jammed for 135,000 from the hijack and was called by Lisa Schuessler in the cutoff to be at risk.
Joseph Guastella: J♣J♥
Lisa Schuessler: K♣J♠
Schuessler was unable to crack the jacks of Guastella when it spread out 6♠4♣Q♥6♥Q♦ to give Guastella the double.
