Jared Bleznick and Adam Hendrix built a pot of more than 500,000 heading to the turn on a board of A♦J♣10♦10♣. Bleznick, in the big blind, checked over to Hendrix on the button.
Hendrix bet 265,000 and Bleznick called to the 4♦ river. He again checked and Hendrix used a time bank before he checked behind.
"Three tens," Bleznick said, but Hendrix showed K♣Q♣7♥6♠ for the flopped straight to take the big pot.
James Wiese raised to 75,000 from under the gun and was called by Conrad De Armas, Jake Schindler also came along out of the big blind. On a flop of J♣6♣3♥, it checked to De Armas and he bet 150,000. Schindler folded while Wiese called and checked again the K♣ turn.
De Armas now bet 200,000 while munching on some dessert and he won the pot uncontested.

In a hand that lasted well into the previous break, Sam Soverel had bet 70,000 into a pot of 200,000 from the cutoff. The flop read A♥7♦2♦ and Jonas Kronwitter had checked from the big blind while Chance Kornuth had done the same from under the gun. Koronwitter called and Kornuth folded before the 9♠ turn was dealt.
That turn then went check-check and Kronwitter led out for 285,000 once the A♠ river fell. Soverel used three time bank extensions while all the players around him stood up to take their break. Eventually, however, he would join them when he threw his cards into the muck, claiming to have folded AxQ♦Jx10x.

Players are now on the first 15-minute break of Day 2.
Tyler Brown and Tong Li had already built a massive pot of nearly 1,000,000 heading to the 5♣3♦6♣ flop when Li got his last 70,000 in the middle and Brown called.
Tong Li: A♥A♣8♦7♠
Tyler Brown: J♣10♦8♣8♥
Brown was chasing a flush draw and waited until the river to complete it as the board ran out J♥7♣, cracking the aces of last year's $25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha champion to send him to the rail.
On a flop of 10♥8♠4♦, Jonathan Cohen was all-in for around 345,000 and at risk against Jesse Lonis.
Jonathan Cohen: J♣J♦9♣9♦
Jesse Lonis: A♦K♠Q♦2♠
The 5♦ turn and 7♦ river improved Cohen to a straight and jack-high flush alike but the same river card gave Lonis the ace-high flush for yet another knockout.
Krasimir Yankov bet 105,000 from the cutoff on a flop of 2♦A♣5♣ before Kabeelan Rajamurthy in the small blind raised to 350,000.
Aaron Mermelstein then moved all in for around 420,000. "Is this play money," tablemate Pakinai Lisawad said as Yankov tanked for more than a minute before letting his hand go. Rajamurthy called Mermelstein's all-in bet.
Aaron Mermelstein: 7♠4♥3♠3♥
Kabeelan Rajamurthy: A♠J♣9♣2♠
Mermelstein had flopped a straight, while Rajamurthy was on a flush draw that came in on the 7♣ turn. Mermelstein was already drawing dead as the J♥ fell on the river.
