The remaining eight players have been sent on a 15-minute break.
Leo Margets raised to 1,800,000 from the button, an effective all-in leaving herself just one 25,000 chip behind. Pierre Neuville, in the big blind, put her all in and Margets made the call.
Leo Margets: 7♣7♥
Pierre Neuville: K♦9♠
The flop landed in dramatic fashion as it came 7♦K♠K♥. The turn and river were safe for Margets as they fell the 4♦ and 6♣ respectively. Margets doubled up.
All the players folded to Davidi Kitai in the small blind, who bet 850,000. Victor Hoogstoel defended from the big blind, and a flop of 5♠9♣6♣ landed on the table.
On this first street, Kitai decided to go all in with the biggest stack. Facing a tough decision, Hoogstoel went in the tank for a long time, and eventually called.
Victor Hoogstoel: 8♠6♠
Davidi Kitai: A♦J♣
"Good call", said Kitai while flipping his cards. The 4♥ and the 3♣ completed the board, and Hoogstoel doubled up.
