The players are going on a 15-minute break at which point late registration will come to an end when the cards go back in the air.
Jason Koon opened to 40,000 in middle position and Michael Jozoff jammed all in for 238,000 on his left. The action folded back to Koon who did some quick math before making the call.
Michael Jozoff: J♣J♦
Jason Koon: K♥Q♠
The flop came K♠9♠7♣ and Koon spiked a pair of kings to take the lead. The Q♦ on the turn and the A♦ on the river were no help to Jozoff who left the table.

Christoph Vogelsang opened to 40,000 from under the gun and Orpen Kisacikoglu defended his big blind.
Kisacikoglu check-called for 20,000 on the K♠J♦8♣ flop, and then check-jammed for the remainder of his starting stack over a bet of 85,000 on the 7♦ turn. Vogelsang quickly called as the slightly bigger stack.
Orpen Kisacikoglu: K♦J♥
Christoph Vogelsang: 7♣7♠
Kisakoglu flopped top two pair, but Vogelsang turned a set of sevens to be the huge favourite heading to the river.
The board rounded out with the 5♠, and Vogelsang received a quick double.
On the next deal, Seth Davies opened to 40,000, and Vogelsang came along from the big blind. He check-called bets of 25,000 and 150,000 on the flop and turn for the final board to read Q♥7♣2♠3♣8♣. Action checked through to showdown, where Vogelsang tabled 10♦7♦ for a pair of sevens. Davies turned over Q♦9♥ for top pair and the pot.
Davies opened to 40,000 once more. This time, Aliaksei Boika and Gregory Jensen called from the cutoff and big blind, respectively.
The action checked to Boika on the 7♥3♦2♦ flop and he bet 40,000. Jensen made it 175,000 and recieved two quick folds.

Galen Hall opened to 40,000 from under the gun and Ben Tollerene called from the hijack. They went heads-up to a flop of 7♣5♠2♠ and Hall continued with a bet of 75,000. Tollerene called and the 5♣ paired the board on the turn.
Hall fired out another bet of 175,000 and Tollerene shoved all in as the bigger stack. Hall quickly called off his stack of just over 400,000 and the cards were tabled.
Galen Hall: K♣K♦
Ben Tollerene: A♥A♦
Hall was down to just two outs and the J♦ on the river was not one of them, sending the pot to Tollerene.

Michael Moncek: K♣10♠
Lander Lijo: A♥Q♥
Moncek couldn't improve as the board ran out 4♠J♦2♥A♠5♥ to mark his elimination. But Texas Mike wasted no time hopping back into the event, while his brother, Tyler Moncek, is also in the High Roller Field.

Sean Perry was down to around 200,000 chips and pushed all in from the hijack. Seth Davies was in the blinds and made the call to put Perry at risk.
Sean Perry: A♣2♣
Seth Davies: 6♥6♦
The flop came Q♥J♦2♦ and Davies was still able to avoid the dreaded ace that Perry was looking for. The 5♦ on the turn narrowed the outs even more and the J♥ on the river locked up the win for Davies.
