The lower-numbered tables are now on a 40-minute dinner break and will come back just after 6:40 p.m.
Players on the higher-numbered tables will then go for their dinner break when the first batch return.
Arian Kashani recalled a hand that he played with Iaron Lightbourne.
A player opened from middle position to 2,000 and the Lightboure three-bet to 5,600 from the cutoff before Kashani four-bet the button to 13,500. Middle position folded, and Lightbourne called.
On the 10♦7♠4♥ flop, Lightbourne check-called a bet of 3,800 from Kashani to the 9♦ turn, which went check-check.
When the 3♣ filled out the board on the river, Lightbourne shoved for around 26,000, which sent Kashani into the tank. A few minutes passed before Lightbourne decided to call the clock, and Kashani was given an extra minute to act before his hand would be declared dead.
As the countdown hit one second, Kashani tossed in the call.
Lightbourne showed AxQx, and Kashani's AxKx was good for the pot.
Give that man a cape!

With around 10,000 chips in the middle on a board of J♦10♣5♦7♠, David Dawson bet 7,000 and Lin Chen shover for almost 22,000. Dawson didn't need to think for too long before he announced a call.
Lin Chen: 9♠8♠
David Dawson: J♣J♠
Chen had turned the nuts and needed to fade the board pairing on the river to double up, as Dawson had top set. The K♠ river was clean for Chen, who earned a stack of around 55,000, as Chen dropped to 10,000.

With around 13,000 chips already in the middle on a board of 2♣4♥3♥3♦, Dean Clay fired out a bet of 10,000, which Valentin Dumitra called.
A 2♠ double-paired the board on the river and Clay shoved. Dumitra had exactly 25,000 behind and swiftly called.
Clay showed 7♥6♥ for a busted combo draw, but Dumitra had the winner with A♣10♣ for ace-high!

On an all-spade board of J♠8♠Q♠2♠ with around 15,000 chips in the pot, Ashleigh Naisbitt checked it over to Vilnis Geidans, who fired 6,000. Muhamed Mia called, and Naisbitt folded.
A 5♥ filled out the board and Geidans reached for chips and threw 13,000 into the pot. Mia thought for some time before he eventually folded, and showed 9♠7♠ for a flopped flush as he did.
Geidans wasn't as generous and didn't show his cards as he raked in the pot.
Mia won a PowerPath Silver Pass, worth $2,500, in an All-In Shootout during Day 1c yesterday, which he can redeem to play in any PokerStars live event around the world or online.

There were already around 9,000 chips in the pot on a flop of 3♦5♠10♣ when Dumitru Enache checked from the small blind and Deborah Worley-Roberts fired out a bet of 4,500 from middle position. Enache responded with a shove for almost 14,000, and after deliberating for a while, Worley-Roberts called.
Dumitru Enache: Q♣10♠
Deborah Worley-Roberts: 6♣6♥
"I thought you had two overs," said Worley-Roberts.
The runout of 8♥3♥ didn't change anything, and Enache got his double-up.
"My gift to you," added Worley-Roberts.
