Heads-up to the flop, Josh Arieh checked out of the big blind and then called a bet worth 10,000 by Matthew Schreiber in the big blind. Both checked the on the turn and Arieh also checked the on the river.
Schreiber then bet 25,000 and that sent Arieh deep into the tank. The call followed and the for a jack-high straight by Schreiber was good enough to win the pot.
Mike Noori raised and called a three-bet from Julien Martini. Martini bet every street of the board and Noori called every time. Martini showed and won the pot.
On the very next hand Noori lost a three-bet pot to Dan Cates to move to just over 200,000 in chips.
Matthew Ashton raised to 7,000 from under the gun and Brian Rast three-bet to 20,000 from one seat over to force a fold.
Todd Ivens then opened to 7,000 on the button and Ashton defended the big blind. The flop was checked to Ivens, who bet 8,000 and took down the pot.
Ivens raised to 7,000 again the next hand and Rast came along in the big blind. The flop fell and Rast check-raised from 8,000 to 28,000 in order to force out Ivens.
There was some drama brewing over on table 112 in the last hand before the break as players on their way out stopped to witness the all-in showdown of Ben Diebold. He had been left with fumes from previous hands and apparently had a number three draw.
According to Philip Sternheimer, Scott Bohlman discarded four cards twice and then hit a two-spotter to eliminate Diebold amid some audible gasps from all around the table.
Phil Ivey raised to 7,500 on the button and was called by Dan Shak in the big blind only. Both players discarded one and Shak opted to check. Ivey now bet 15,000 and Shak exposed the before also revealing that he had paired his trey. Ivey briefly showed his cards and raked in the pot as he closes in on half a million in chips.
