Break With Seven Remaining
Level 26
: 350,000/700,000, 70,000 ante
Alan "TheCockroach" Schein lost a pot against chip leader Luis "Xapilskinha" Assuncao Garla to then win a bigger pot against the Brazilian and a few hands later the final seven players headed into the next scheduled six-minute break.
In the biggest pot, Schein flat-called out of the small blind when facing a min-raise by Assuncao Garla, then check-called two barrels on the 
flop and 
turn. The 
river was checked and Schein tabled 
for the king-high straight, Assuncao Garla had checked behind 
for a jack-high straight.
Apart from that, all medium-sized pots that involved Assuncao Garla saw the Brazilian rake in the chips and he has almost reached 50% of the chips in play. There are 10 hands remaining at the current blinds.
