On a 
flop we found Abdulaziz Almashal check-calling a 2,500-chip bet as the 
landed on the turn.
Now faced with a 2,700-chip bet, Almashal called as the 
landed on the river. Almashal checked and his opponent fired out a hefty bet of 13,000.
Almashal went into the tank for close to two minutes before folding his hand while slipping to 123,500 in chips.
There was already 5,200 in the pot when the big blind led for 2,800 on a 
flop. PokerNews' very own Chad Holloway was seated two to the big blind's left and he raised to 5,200 before returning to a Phil Hellmuth-esque pose. The big blind called.
Both players then checked the 
turn, but the big blind led for 12,500 on the 
river, forcing a quick fold from Holloway.
The remaining players are heading on their final 20-minute break for the day!
The penultimate level of the day started with 2011 WSOP Champion Pius Heinz hitting the rail when his turned trips was rivered by his opponent's Broadway straight. However the major story of the level would be new players surging up the leader board.
Abdulaziz Almashal, Javier Etayo, Kyle Burnside and Jason Manger all found themselves trending upwards while it would be the more notable Lika Gerasimova - partner of 2008 WSOP Main Event final tablist both here and in Europe Ivan Demidov - who would snatch the chip lead at one point as all the players who have flirted with the chip lead sat as following at break:
Manger - 145,500
Erlichman - 142,000
Gerasimova - 124,000
Almashal - 123,500
Burnside, 98,000
Etayo - 82,000
However it would the highly funny Jason Alexander of Seinfeld fame that would be one of the players hitting the rail after failing to improve with his 
against an opponent's 
. Paul Magriel, Sam Barnhart and David Steicke also found themselves on the rail.

The cards are back in the air for the final level of the night!
Former World Series of Poker Main Event champion Joe Cada is up to 21,300 chips after doubling up moments ago.
There were two limps, one in middle position and on on the button, before Cada completed his small blind. Tatiana Barausova checked her option in the big blind, meaning it was four-handed to the 
flop. The action checked to the button and he led for 4,000. Only Cada called.
The turn was the and Cada checked, the button bet 5,000 and then called when Cada moved all in for an additional 3,000 or so chips.
Cada showed but his opponent mucked before we could see what he had, his cards hitting the muck as the dealer placed the onto the river.
Larry Wright raised to 850 from middle position, and only the big blind called. Both players checked the 
flop, and then the dealer turned the . The big blind checked, and Wright bet 1,250. His opponent quickly folded, and Wright pulled in the pot.
Wright has been steadily building his stack throughout the day, and now sits with 127,000 in chips.
"I'm back to even!" was the cry from across the room. When our heads popped up from our computer screens, we saw Chamath Palihapitiya standing tall from Seat 1 of Table 419 in the Purple Section screaming for all to hear that he was now back to even. Palihapitiya is well known for having a great time in the poker events he plays, and the 2013 World Series of Poker Main Event is much the same. With his arms spread wide after proclaiming getting back to 30,000 in chips, Palihapitiya received a warm round of applause from the room.
