Men "The Master" Nguyen opened to 21,000 in early position and a player behind up three-bet to 50,000. Action folded back to Nguyen who asked for a count before flatting.
The flop fell 
and The Master moved all-in for 80,000 chips. His opponent folded 
face up and Nguyen mucked face down, raking in the pot.
The Master now sits with 195,000 chips.
Dash Dudley and his one opponent were looking down at a 
flop when all the chips went in. They went to showdown, as is the custom.
Dudley: 
for top set
Opponent: 
for bottom pair and a flush draw
Turn:
River: 
Dudley took the 320,000 pot.
With just 72 players remaining there is a father-son combo still alive.
Irving Rice (82) and his son Richard Rice (56) both have around 180,000 in chips and are sitting at the same seat (Seat 2) on different tables.
"I stake him baby," Richard Rice told our reporter. "He's my workhorse."
Good luck to the Rice family!
Two undercards were good enough for a double-up for Eric "basebaldy" Baldwin.
A player in middle position opened to 18,000 and action folded to Baldwin in the small blind who shoved for 143,000. Action folded back to the original raiser who called and the hands were opened:
Middle position: 
Baldwin: 
The 
flop was fortuitous for Baldwin, but the 
on the turn gave his opponent a gut-shot straight draw. The river blanked, the 
, and Baldwin was shipped the pot doubling to 280,000 chips.
The player in the cutoff raised to 17,000 and the player on the button reraised to 33,000 before Joe Carr-Hill went all in for 89,000 from the small blind. The cutoff folded, but the button called, and they were on their backs.
Carr-Hill: 
Button: a rather esoteric 
Board: 
Oh dear. The button player's extremely speculative holding made a flush, and Carr-Hill was left with a payout slip and not much to do for the rest of the night.
William "Bart" Davis just doubled through Marc Goldman.
Again.
The pot was raised preflop, and the board read 
when Davis led for 40,000. Goldman moved all-in and Davis called instantly.
Davis: 
Goldman: 
The turn and river brought the 
and the 
respectively, sending another wave of chips from Goldman's stack to Davis'. Davis now sits with 420,000 chips and Goldman is down below 100,000 chips.
It folded around to Irving Rice on the button, who shoved for 123,000. The gentleman in the small blind promptly re-shoved for just a little more. The player in the big blind did that thing where you quickly move your finger up and down over your lips while you're humming and it makes a funny sound (open appeal - is there a word for that?) but ultimately folded. Rice and the small blind flipped their cards.
Rice: 
Small Blind:
Board: 
"Oh man, goddammit!" lamented Mr. Small Blind. Neither player had a diamond to make a flush, but Rice had rivered a three. Left with just a few thousand, the unlucky player exited a hand or two later. Rice meanwhile doubled to over 250,000.
William "Bart" Davis just doubled through Marc Goldman on Table 322.
Davis opened to 25,000 from middle position and Goldman re-raised all-in behind him. Action folded back to Davis who instantly called. Goldman tabled but Davis had him dominated with 
.
The flop fell 
, and the 
gave Goldman extra outs. The was no help though, and Davis doubled to 241,000 chips. Goldman slipped a bit, falling to 202,000 chips.
Level: 18
Blinds: 4,000/8,000
Ante: 1,000
It's been a whole hour since we went on break, so it's time to send the players out again!
This time the dealers will be spending the break coloring up the purple 500-denomination chips. 77 players remain.
