Some scary news coming from the hallway just outside the tournament area as it appears actor and poker player James Woods required some medical attention.
One witness saw Woods being attended to by Emergency Medical Technicians, who were giving him oxygen as he pointed to his chest.
Vladislav Mezheritsky decided to call a 300-chip bet from early position in the small blind after Byron Kaverman flatted on the button.
The big blind came along for the ride and they went four-handed to a flop. Mezheritsky checked and the pre-flop aggressor dropped out an 875-chip bet. Kaverman flatted again, but Mezheritsky had other ideas, shipping it in for 4,500.
The early position raiser folded his hand, but Kaverman thought long and hard on this one, taking a full three minutes in the tank and really making Mezheritsky sweat it out.
With the rather skinny 3,000-chip starting stack in this event, it's no surprise to see a lot of early casualties.
And with players exiting the event every minute or so around the room, the speed at which they are breaking tables back in the Pavilion Room has increased immensely.
They'll eventually move all these bracelet hunters into Brasilia to finish off the night, but for now, just ten from what was more than 60 tables remain playing across the hall.
Erik Cajelais just won a pot before the break when he bet 425 on the turn on a board of and was called by the big blind. Both players checked the river, and Cajelais showed to outkick his opponent's .
Cajelais, a Quebec native, is just $100,000 away from reaching $3 million in career live cashes. It'll take a deep run in this tournament to get there, but he's certainly capable.
