The flop came Q♥7♠5♠ and both players checked.

On the 9♥ turn, Von Kriegenbergh checked. Haxton bet Von Kriegenbergh's remaining 550,000, and Von Kriegenbergh made the call for his tournament life.

Taylor von Kriegenbergh: 10♠9♣ All in
Ike Haxton: 10♥10♣

The A♣ river sealed Von Kriegenbergh's fate, and he went home as the bubble boy.

On the second hand back from dinner, Mathew Frankland moved all in for 590,000 from the hijack. Vinny Lingham then moved all in for 2,100,000 on the button with Chris Hunichen and Barak Wisbrod folding in the blinds.

Mathew Frankland: Q♣Q♠All in
Vinny Lingham: K♠K♣

Frankland was crushed, but he had his hopes lifted after seing the Q♦ in the window. However, the 2♥K♦ followed behind for a set-over-set situation. Frankland couldn't find his one-outer on the 5♣ turn or A♥ river.

With Frankland's departure, the tournament is now on the stone bubble.

Mathew Frankland used five of the 11 time banks he possesed before folding in the cutoff. The action then went on Ben Heath, who opened to 160,000 from the button. Vinny Lingham folded in the small blind before Chris Hunichen defended his big blind.

Hunichen check-called bets of 90,000 and 465,000 on the flop and turn for the board to read K♠10♠5♠4♥3♦. Heath used a time bank of his own before sizing up to 785,000.

Hunichen had around 2,500,000 behind and went into the tank. Two time banks later, he called.

"Jesus," Hunichen muttered as Heath tabled A♠A♦. The defending champion couldn't beat the rockets and the pot was pushed to Heath.

Dan Smith opened to 160,000 from the button and called off his stack of approximately 1,000,000 when Phil Ivey put him all in from the big blind.

Dan Smith: A♣Q♣All in
Phil Ivey: 9♠9♣

There was paint in the window, but the K♦6♥2♣ flop kept Ivey ahead, as did the 10♦ turn. However, Smith picked up four more outs, now drawing to Broadway to go along with his overcards.

The river bricked out with the 4♠ to mark the end of Smith's run.
