The players are now on a 20-minute break.
Matt Glantz and Justin Schwartz got all in on the turn with the board reading 


. Glantz held the 


and Schwartz held the 


. "Just don't put a king or an eight up there!" yelled Schwartz as he stood from his chair.
The river completed the board with the
and nailed Glantz with a straight. He won the hand while Schwartz was left pacing back and forth. "F***!" he yelled at one point while pacing before finally making his way back to his chair.
Shortly after the hand that saw Justin Schwartz make a dramatic fold, he was back in the action looking to rebuild. From the small blind, he three-bet a 75,000 chip raise from John Shipley to 255,000. Shipley made the call and the flop came down 

. Without hesitation, Schwartz moved in the rest of his 270,000 chips and after some thought, Shipley folded.
Schwartz climbs back up to 775,000 and while Shipley is no doubt unhappy he didn't win the hand, he still controls the second largest stack in the room with 1.24 million.
From under the gun, Michael Weyer raised to 70,000 and was called by Christopher King on the button and Dario Alioto in the small blind. The flop came 

and Alioto wasted little time moving all in for 220,000. Weyer thought for a minute or two before finally letting go of his hand. King took less time making his decision though: a call.
Alioto: 



King: 



Alioto needed to catch up and the
turn didn't quite get him there. The
river on the other hand, was good enough to chop the pot and stay alive giving both players a straight to the Jack.
Justin Schwartz check-called a bet of 225,000 on the 


board from Cory Wood. The river completed the board with the
and Schwartz checked again. Wood bet 300,000 and Schwartz began to tank. He thougth for a long time before eventually standing up and saying, "Why me?!?!?" in agony. He then folded his hand and Wood won the pot.

. Kabbaj led out for the pot and King raised all in for 408,000. Kabbaj called with the 


and King held the 


.
The turn brought the
and the river the
. King's hand held up and he won the hand to move over 1.1 million in chips.

John Kabbaj raised to 60,000 and got four callers. Christopher King called in the cutoff seat, Dario Alioto called from the button, Hans Winzeler called from the small blind and Felipe Ramos called from the big blind. The flop came down 

and Winzeler shoved all in for his last 94,000. Ramos, Kabbaj and King folded before Alioto called.
Alioto held the 


for a bunch of overcards. Winzeler held the 


for a pair of threes. The turn was the
and the river was the
. Winzeler turned a wheel and won the pot, getting himself off the short stack and back to nearly 500,000 in chips.
