The remaining 23 players have been sent off into a one hour dinner break and will resume action around 8.55 p.m. Las Vegas time.
In the very last hand before the break, Brandon Eisen and Jose Carlos Garcia clicked back the action in a four-bet pot preflop to the flop. Both players checked and Eisen then check-called 76,000 on the turn.
The river saw both players checking and Eisen tabled . To the surprise of Jackduyph Duong, who stayed near the table to watch the action unfold, Garcia mucked the and gave up the pot. "This hand is gonna read nicely on the blog," Duong said.
Nikita Nikolaev raised from early position and Vimy Ha called from the cutoff to see the flop. Nikolaev continued and Ha called, he did so again for 86,000 on the turn and again Ha tossed in the chips.
After the river, Nikolaev moved all in for 378,000 and Ha gave it some thought before making the call with . Nikolaev tossed his cards into the muck and stormed off, getting eliminated in the process and taking home $19,948.
When we spoke with Ha after the hand, he said that he "wasn't worried about the king or eight" but rather the ten on the river that may have improved the hand of his opponent. "Maybe he had spades," Ha figured.

It was folded to Mykhailo Krasnytskyi in the small blind who moved all in for slightly more than 400,000 in chips. Xiao Peng in the big blind asked for a count and as the dealer was counting she announced a call. The two players hands were turned over:
Krasnytskyi:
Peng:
The flop came keeping Peng in the lead and giving her a flush draw as well. The turn was the to give Peng a flush. Her opponent could still chop the pot if the river was a diamond bigger than a five. It was the , however, and Krasnytskyi was eliminated in 25th place. Peng moved her stack to 910,000, a far cry from the 150,000 she had a little while ago.
