Mike Shi opened the action with a raise to 40,000 from early position. Manuel Fritz made the call in middle position.
Players went heads up to a K♥4♥2♠ flop and Shi continued for 75,000. Fritz made the call.
Action went check-check on the A♥ turn but Shi fired 225,000 on the 9♠ river. Fritz thought it over but eventually folded.
It folded to Philip Sternheimer in the cutoff, who raised to 50,000. Morten Klein then made it 155,000 on the button, and the action went back to Sternheimer.
Sternheimer then went all in, covering Klein's stack of 685,000 chips. The Norwegian did not need to think long before surrendering his cards and forfeiting the pot.
On other tables, Ian Matakis and Jesse Lonis were eliminated to bring the tournament down to eight tables.
Level: 13
Blinds: 10,000/20,000
Ante: 20,000
Players are headed to their second 15-minute break of the day. Play will resume at Level 13 with blinds of 10,000-20,000. 57 players remain in the field.
Jason Koon opened the action to 40,000 from the hijack. Kharlin Sued raised all in for 246,000 from the cutoff and Koon made the call.
Kharlin Sued: A♠J♥ 
Jason Koon: 8♣8♦
The board ran out J♠2♠Q♦5♦3♦ and Sued won the flip, to double through Koon.
Chino Rheem raised to 35,000 first-to-act and was three-bet by Yingui Li to 110,000 from directly behind. Action folded back to Rheem, who called.
Both players checked on the 6♦2♣6♥ flop and Rheem checked again on the 8♣ turn. Li bet 100,000 and Rheem called.
The J♥ completed the board and Rheem checked again. Li fired 280,000 into the middle and Rheem used up a few time extensions before announcing he was all in for 860,000 total.
Li went into the tank, but eventually put in a single chip to indicate a call. Rheem could only turn over 5♣5♦, which was no good against the K♦K♥ of Li to eliminate Rheem and send the massive pot Li’s way.
James Chen had already gone all in for his final few blinds. There was also a side pot brewing of 55,000 chips between Ognyan Dimov and Scott Seiver.
Dimov then placed a bet of 25,000 on the 6♣10♣6♦7♥ board. Seiver raised to 55,000 and Dimov made a quick fold before Chen and Seiver showed down.
James Chen: K♠J♥
Scott Seiver: A♠Q♠
Chen did not pair up on the 8♣ river and was consequentially eliminated from the High Roller.
