Taylor Black opened to 600,000 under the gun. David Brehme three-bet to 1,950,000 from the big blind and Black came along.
The flop came 5♥8♠10♠. Both players checked to the turn which was the 8♣. Brehme bet 1,050,000, Black called.
The river came the 2♠. It went check, check again.
Brehme tabled Kx5x for a pair of fives which Black had bested with the 9♦9♥.
David Brehme opened 600,000 on the button and Boris Kuzmanovic defended the big blind.
The dealer spread a flop of A♦10♦9♦, and Kuzmanovic check-called a bet of 400,000.
When the K♦ fell on the turn, Kuzmanovic checked and Brehme fired 800,000. Kuzmanovic tanked for about a minute before putting in a check-raise to 2,500,000. Brehme let his hand go.
The players are on their first 15-minute break of the day. The unofficial final table of ten redraw will happen straightaway after the break.

Stefan Dimitrov raised almost all his chips, leaving just 600,000 behind from middle position. Taylor Black called in the cutoff.
The flop came down K♦2♥K♠. Dimitrov checked, Black bet 600,000 to force Dimitrov all in, who called.
Stefan Dimitrov: A♦10♦ 
Taylor Black: A♥Q♥
Dimitrov found a diamond on the turn as the 5♦ came off to give him more outs but the river came the 8♠ blank to end his run in tenth place.
Boris Kuzmanovic opened 800,000 under the gun and Alec Torelli defended the big blind.
When the Q♦10♥8♠ flop hit the felt, Torelli checked and Kuzmanovic continued for 1,200,000. Torelli tank-folded.
Dong Chen opened 800,000 under the gun and Alec Torelli three-bet 2,400,000 on the button.
Chen thought about it for about 45 seconds, and pitched his cards into the muck.
David Brehme raised from a middle position to 3,000,000 and got a call from Adam Owen in the big blind.
The players saw a 3♥3♣9♣ flop and Owen checked. Brehme moved all in and Owen snap called.
David Brehme: A♣Q♣
Adam Owen: 9♦9♠
Brehme had a flush draw on the flop, but Owen had flopped the boat.
Brehme was looking to hit running aces to save him from elimination, but the 8♥ turn sealed his fate and he stood from the table as the dealer placed the 10♥ river, completing the board.
The pot had 2,400,000 in it on the flop as it came 8♠5♣K♣. From the cutoff, Adam Owen bet over three times the pot as he put out 8,000,000. Clement Richez was in the big blind and went into the tank as the bet was for about half of his stack.
Richez thought for a long time, at least three to four minutes while he sat studying the situation. Eventually he folded.
"You thought those were blues?" both David Uvaydov and Alec Torelli asked Owen after the hand (referencing the blue 100,000 chips vs the 500,000 pink ones that Owen had bet with).
Owen did not reply to the question definitively as he gathered the pot to add to his big chip lead.
