The original raiser folded only to have Katz move all in for an additional 54,800 more. Bonazzo made the call and we were off to a showdown.

to see Katz fade his mini-sweat to double through to 210,000 as Bonazzo slips to 70,000 in chips.

"I just want to concentrate on playing!" uttered an unusually angry Neil Channing when asked to rake up his black 100-denomination chips by the Tournament Director.
With the 100-denomination chips not needed for blinds and antes in this or any future levels, it is understandable that he would be asked to color up his 'blacks'.
What makes it more unusual is that Channing has over twenty double stacks of them!
In basic terms . . . he has over 80,000 in these, or 800 individual chips, or more than eight racks worth.
It is expected that Channing will be spending the majority of his upcoming break raking these chips up, but at least he has a healthy 195,000 chip stack in front of him to keep him comfortable.
Earnest Bell opened to 10,000 from early position only to have Carlos Mortensen three-bet.
Bell committed his 150,000 chip stack and Mortensen made a crying call to put Bell at risk.
Bell: 
Mortensen: 
The flop fell down to put Bell way out in front, and the changed little on the turn.
Unfortunately for Bell the 
spiked on the river to send him to the rail and Mortensen to 415,000 in chips.
The remaining players are heading on a 20-minute break.
