Play looks to have slowed down a little in the Main Event, with average stacks relatively deep and only a couple of players recently eliminated.
In one hand, Maher Achour raised from late position and David Docherty reraised to 80,000 from the big blind. Achour responded with a four-bet to 175,000 and Docherty laid it down.
