Announcer Nikki's threat to start without either of our players present has not yet been carried through, and the clock is still paused while Bhatti and Daya do whatever it is they're doing.
When they come back, the stacks will look like so. After a bit of a roller coaster ride, start-of-day chip leader Aadam Daya is back in the lead.
Aadam Daya - 7.7 million
Deepak Bhatti - 5.3 million
Our heads-upsers have returned to the table. 35 minutes remain of this level.
It's first blood to Deepak Bhatti who won the opening pot with a bet of 250,000 on the turn of a 
board. The following hand, he raised Aadam Daya's open of 400,000 to 1,900,000, to take down his second consecutive pot.
Aadam Daya limped the button and Deepak Bhatti checked.
The 
board was checked down, Daya taking it with

While our final two were getting down to business, Faraz Jaka strolled by to rail.
"Two brown people at the final table, I love it!" he called over, to chuckles all round. He looked over to your blogger. "Oh no, I see her writing stuff down, that's not good."
Jaka came a moment later with Ravi Raghavan in tow.
"He doesn't believe it either!" Jaka called over cheerfully.
Level: 32
Blinds: 100,000/200,000
Ante: 30,000
Deepak Bhatti limped in on the button and Aadam Daya checked his option to see an 
flop which both players checked. Daya checked the turn as well, and then called the 200,000 bet from Bhatti, so they got to see a river as well.
The river came down the 
and Daya checked once again, and this time called a 400,000 bet from Bhatti. When the cards were turned over, both players had two pair.
Bhatti: 
Daya: 
It was a chop, and play continues.
From a viewer's perspective, the action is painfully slow, most pots ending preflop, and if they do reach a board, being checked down to the end. Of course, all it takes is big hand versus big hand for the tide to turn, so the action could pick up at any moment.
Of the two, Aadam Daya has been by far the more aggressive player - Deepak Bhatti seems to be a big fan of limping in on the button and seeing how things go after that - and Daya has managed to extend his chip lead to almost 10 million.
On the rare occasion of a Bhatti raise from the button, Daya called the 500,000 total bet and they saw a dangerous-looking 
flop. Both players checked.
Daya checked the 
turn as well and then called the 600,000 bet from Bhatti; they moved on to a river, on which they reverted to checking.
So, all action over, Daya flipped 
for two pair. Whatever Bhatti had, he couldn't beat it. His hand went into the muck, and the pot went to Daya.
