The 34 players remaining in the Main Event have just been sent on a 30-minute dinner break.
Cards were on their backs and stacks were in the middle, with Boro Skalonja at risk against Martin Rapp.
Boro Skalonja: A♣Q♣
Martin Rapp: A♥10♦
Skalonja was in good shape for a double up with a dominating ace, and the 6♠4♦K♣7♠5♥ runout confirmed his double up.
An opponent opened in the cutoff and Nicola Diaco produced a three-bet on the button to 60,000, earning a swift fold from his opponent.
Level: 20
Blinds: 8,000/16,000

With around 240,000 in the middle and the board reading A♥2♦4♣9♦8♥ in a battle of the blinds, Frank Diekmann had put out a bet of 75,000 only to be faced with an all-in from Daniel Schwitter, putting Diekmann at risk if he made the call.
Diekmann pondered the spot for several minutes, peering at his cards repeatedly and giving his opponent the eye.
Diekmann eventually made the call, however he was shown the bad news when Schwitter turned over 3♠5♣ for the flopped straight. Diekmann showed A♣7♠ for a pair of aces and headed for the exit.
On a flop of K♦J♦6♠ in a battle between two big stacks and with 600,000 already in the middle, Anwar Moradi had moved all in and Egzon Krasniqi was in the tank, both players having very similar stacks and about 700,000 behind.
Krasniqi went deep into the tank but eventually opted to fold, and Moradi showed K♥K♠ for top set and raked in the pot.
An opponent moved all in from the under the gun for 95,000 and Frank Diekmann called, with the opponent at risk.
Opponent: A♣Q♣
Frank Diekmann: A♥A♦
The opponent had been unlucky to run into Diekmann's aces and no help arrived on the J♠7♣Q♦4♥4♠ runout.
