Edouard Mignot Bonnefous completed to 10,000 and Eric Buchman made it two-bets only to have Bonnefous call all in for just 16,000.

With Buchman making a straight and Bonnefous unable to improve to a full house or a flush, the Frenchman hit the rail in 16th place for a $24,901 payday.
Dan Heimiller has found a much needed double through Todd Barlow.

The remaining sixteen players are heading on a 15-minute break before returning to play one more level.
Dario Alioto brought-in and Men Nguyen called.
"I'll give you two options. If you check, I'll bet, and if you bet I'll raise you" stated Nguyen.
Alioto looked down at his last 12,000 and deliberated for nearly two minutes before pushing in 8,000 only to have Nguyen two-bet him. Alioto called and everyone surrounded the tables to sweat the possible impending bubble.

Alioto caught the and 
while Nguyen caught the

to keep 'The Master' in the lead.
Alioto was dealt seventh street and quickly flipped it over to reveal the to put him in the lead.
"I guess it's all on me baby" uttered Nguyen as he slowly squeezed out the 
to improve his hand to two pair while sending all the players - albeit Aliot0 - into the money!
An open pair of aces by fifth street was the kiss of death for Joe Cassidy. He was in a hand against Eric Buchman, and Buchman quickly folded when he saw the open pair. Cassidy turned up two more aces underneath for quads.
"Boy, that ace really killed your action," said Buchman.
"You couldn't be rolled up just once?" asked Cassidy.
It's the never-ending bubble. The decision to freeze the clock seems to have frozen the players. Dario Alioto is still the short stack, but he has about 55,000. That's 3.5 big bets. The antes are grinding people down a bit, but even at 2,000 Alioto still has time.
Here are the current chip leaders.
Sirious Jamshidi - 510,000
Michael Mizrachi - 500,000
Vladimir Schmelev - 440,000
And here are the players sitting on the bottom.
Dan Heimiller - 110,000
Pat Pezzin - 100,000
Joe Cassidy - 90,000
Dario Alioto - 60,000
