After the completion of level six, the clock shows a total of 50 entries and 41 players remain as they are sent on the first scheduled 15-minute break. The late registration will be open for another three levels when the action resumes, which means another one hour on top.
Down to only 10,300 in chips, Jie Qi was all-in with the A♦Q♥ and his table neighbour Xuanzhi Zhao looked him up with the superior A♠K♥. The K♣10♥2♣6♥2♠ board kept the preflop order all the way to send Qi to the rail near the end of level six.
Yunkyu Song bet the Q♦Q♣9♦5♠ turn for 7,200 and Kaihua Liu called in the next seat, which led them to the A♥ on the river. Song moved all-in for 16,400 and was called rather quickly without using any time bank.
Song tabled his A♦Q♠ for queens full of aces and Liu only had J♠10♥ for a bluff catcher gone wrong.
Down to around 2,000 and in the big blind next, Liu was at risk preflop with 4♠2♦ against the A♥10♦ of Waichen Wang from under the gun. Wang made broadway on the K♠Q♥7♣8♥J♦ runout.
In a three-bet pot without any action on the 5♠4♦4♥10♥ turn, Yu Liu bet the A♣ river for 4,500 when checked to by Qiao Heng. The latter called and then mucked uzpon being shown A♦K♠ for aces and fours with the nut kicker.
One of the most recently opened tables features several new faces and among them, Zida Chen has started the best and was involved in a single-raised four-way pot. They all checked the K♠5♥4♦ flop and Xian Xiao then bet the K♦ turn for 2,000 out of the small blind. That received no callers and Xiao won the pot.
One table over, Yang Hu vanished and the chips once more went to the early chip leader Qun Dang.

Yunlong Jin raised to 1,200 and earned two callers including Jianghao Chu in the big blind. Only the latter check-called the Q♦10♥9♥ flop for 1,500 and checked again the 3♦ on the turn. Jin now bet 2,100 and Chu folded.
Changdong Ren was all-in for 8,600 in chips with the 4♦4♥ and flipped against Hanlin Wang with the A♦10♥. The board ran out Q♦J♦8♠7♦2♣ and Ren dodged a lot of outs to survive.
