On a heads-up completed board of 5♠2♠9♥Q♣J♣, Bjorn Bruns fired out a bet of 28,000 into the already-swelled pot of 45,000.
The action was then on Hyun Kim who went briefly into the tank before he set out the proper chips to make the call.
Bruns then flipped over K♥Q♥ for top pair and Kim looked at his hand one last time before he tossed it into the muck to award Bruns the substantial pot.
Dean Hutchison three-bet to 23,000 from middle position and an opponent in early position called.
The flop came 3♣9♣3♦ and Hutchison continued for 16,000. His opponent called and the 10♥ fell on the turn.
The early-position player checked again, and Hutchison fired out 60,000. His opponents' cards instantly hit muck as Hutchison dragged in the pot.
Tablemate Sergio Torres asked to have a picture of him posing in front of his big stack before they went off on break. Vadim Rozin, who made a run to 12th place last year, is also at this table but coming back to a short stack.
The hijack raised to 6,000, finding Jonathan Fhima in the small blind who three-bet to 18,000. The hijack called.
Fhima bet out 9,000 on a board of A♠5♥7♣. His opponent elected to see a turn.
The 6♦ saw Fhima commit an additional 23,000 into the middle. Fhima's opponent thought for some time before tossing his cards into the muck.
Nils Pudel limped from the small blind before Yuri Dzivielevski raised to 12,000 from the big blind. Pudel called.
The flop came A♠6♠5♠, and Pudel checked. Dzivielevski bet the minimum of 3,000, and Pudel called.
The 3♣ arrived on the turn, and Dzivielevski again had action checked to him. He bet 16,500, with Pudel calling once more.
The river brought the 8♦. Pudel checked a third time, which led to Dzivielevski betting 45,000. Pudel made the call. Dzivieleski turned over K♦2♣, and Pudel took down the pot heading into break with his 6♥5♣.
