Ray Bonavida falls

Phil Hellmuth opened with a raise, only to have Ray Bonavida make the call before Brandon Cantu raised pot.

Hellmuth tanked before mucking as Bonavida made the call for his tournament life.

Bonavida: {A-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{3-Spades}
Cantu: {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{2-Spades}

The board fell {10-Spades}{4-Spades}{8-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{8-Clubs} to see Cantu send another player home as he raked in the pot to move to over 725,000.

As Bonavida headed to collect his payout Cantu commented, "I'm on the hottest streak I've ever been on in my life!" . . . and there is no doubting that!

The action continues here after dinner break with John O'Shea being the next victim.

We didn't catch O'Shea's cards, but it was Lee Watkinson's {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} too strong for O'Shea when the board ran out {10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{8-Spades}{Q-Clubs} to send O'Shea to the rail.

Ta-Ta-Talebi

Rodeen Talebi and his {8-Clubs}{6-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} have been sent to the rail by William McMahan and his {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{5-Spades}{4-Hearts}.

All the money went in on the flop with the final board running out {5-Hearts}{10-Spades}{3-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} to see Talebi exit to the rail.

Sonny Osman bumped it preflop to 14,000 before Ali Al Jenabi moved his last 40,000 into the middle. Osman called and the cards were tabled.

Al Jenabi: {7-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Clubs}
Osman: {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{10-Spades}{5-Spades}

The board ran out {9-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{K-Clubs} to see Al Jenabi hit the rail as Osman climbed to 140,000 in chips.

Don Harris called a pot bet preflop from Brandon Cantu to see a flop of {6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} fall.

Harris check-called a pot bet of 24,000 from Cantu before the {3-Hearts} fell on the turn and yet another pot bet from Cantu followed. Harris check-raised all in and Cantu made the call.

Harris: {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{9-Spades}
Cantu: {A-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}

When the river fell the {7-Spades} Harris was scooped by and sent to the rail as Cantu climbed to 650,000 in chips.

Sias Cracks Aces

[user80015]
All the money went in preflop with Aaron Sias holding {K-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} to Simon Stocken's {A-Hearts}{A-Spades}{3-Hearts}{9-Clubs}.

The board ran out {2-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} to see Stocken's set of aces cracked by Sias' diamond flush as he doubles to 80,000 while Stocken slips to 20,000 in chips.
