We've reached the first 20-minute break of the day.
Team PokerStars Sports Star Fatima Moreira de Melo is best known as one of Holland's best field hockey players. She can also play some poker, having won her table yesterday. Today she finds herself sitting to the left of Annette Obrestad over at Table 373.
Just now came a hand in which de Melo opened with a raise to 1,500 from under the gun and got two callers (UTG+1 and the cutoff). It then folded to Obrestad who reraised to 7,200 from the big blind. That sent de Melo into the tank for about a minute, after which she declared she was all in. The others quickly folded, and Obrestad, too, released her hand.
That one pushes de Melo up to 55,000, still behind Obrestad who has about 65,000. The table leader at present is Matthew Jensen with 75,000.
Mike Beasley is out of Event #39, and he was kind enough to recap his last hand for us.
According to Beasley, he opened the pot preflop and was called by Annette Obrestad and Peter Nguyen. The dealer flopped 
and Nguyen and Obrestad checked to Beasley who continued for 4,300. Obrestad folded and Nguyen called.
The turn was the 
bringing a second heart to the board. Nguyen led for 11,000 and Beasley called.
A 
rivered and Nguyen moved all in having Beasley covered. Beasley called with 
, but top set was no good. Nguyen opened 
for a straight and Beasley hit the rail.
Terrence Chan has been eliminated from Table 363.
Jesse Martin is also out over there, and following his elimination we saw a confrontation arise between Martin and Sam El-Sayed. It became quite heated, with words getting louder and a chair toppling over. Finally, once tourney staff arrived, the situation was calmed down. To put it in poker terms, the pair had gotten up to one player putting in a five-bet before the other finally let it go.
El-Sayed is now sitting out a round to cool off.
A couple more eliminations to report -- Robert Mizrachi has busted from Table 366, and Anthony Utnage is gone from Table 362.
