The dinner break is approaching, as just 10 minutes remain in Level 14. Over at Shaun Deeb's table, conversation during the lull between hands turned to discussing whether or not play will continue if the bubble hasn't burst and the break arrives.
"A lot of people are hungry," chimed Dan Smith.
Deeb explained that it is up to the tournament director, but they'll likely go eat as many players will have made plans to dine at a specific time.
"The person who bubbles, he will have a good meal, then," said Freddy Deeb. "Right," said Shaun. "At least he'll get to eat still having hope."
They've played four hands of hand-for-hand thus far, and we've seen no one all in and called as yet.
Over on Daniel Negreanu's table, he just raised to 5,400 from late position and got a single caller in Marko Neumann playing from the blinds. The flop came . Neumann checked, Negreanu bet 7,200, and Neumann called. Both then checked the turn.
The river was the . Neumann checked, and when Negreanu fired 20,000, Neumann let his hand go.
There are still 43 left.

They are down to 43 now, just one from the cash. Hand-for-hand play has begun on the seven remaining tables, and they'll continue as such until the bubble bursts.
Following a small blind raise by Timo Pfutzenreuter, Chad Brown called from the big blind and the pair saw the flop come . Pfutzenreuter bet 9,200, and Brown paused a beat before calling. The turn was the . Pfutzenreuter bet 18,200 this time, and again Brown hesitated and then called.
The river was the . Pfutzenreuter slid out three columns of orange (1,000) chips, a bet that appeared to be about 60,000 — and Brown instantly tossed his cards away.
