Upon completion of the first four levels of 30 minutes each, Day 1d has sent the players on the first scheduled 10-minute break. So far, there are 87 entries of which 72 players remain.
Soon after notching up an elimination, 15 was aiming to repeat the same feat but got it in dominated in a preflop contest against hanwin.
hanwin: K♠K♣
15: 10♣10♦
All chips would have likely gone in after the K♦10♠7♦ flop anyways which gave both a set. The 4♥ turn and 9♣ river brought no upset and hanwin doubled for 16,200.

The completed board showed A♥10♠5♣J♥Q♥ and the player from under the gun checked to iso on the button, who bet 7,000. Her opponent went deep into the tank while iso went on to chat with coliorosso in Japanese.
Eventually, another player at the table called the clock and the 30 seconds ran down without a decision before the player from under the gun mucked the A♦J♦ face-up.

Heads-up to the A♥4♥2♣6♣ turn, the action escalated between rb and layu with only around 8,000 in the middle. A raising war got the chips into the middle between early chip leader rb and layu with the latter at risk for 42,300.
layu: A♣K♠
rb: A♠Q♠
The river was the 2♥ and the kicker played for layu to double.

The cards of tw in the under-the-gun position were already mucked while he paid off the double for kouichirou3 in the big blind. On a board of 6♦5♣4♦7♥Q♦, the J♦8♣ of the table short stack had turned an eight-high straight to secure the double, though, kouichirou3 remains at just a third of the starting stack.
