Players are going on another 15-minute break.
There are currently 269 entries so far on Day 1, with 195 players remaining.
Four players saw a flop of 8♥4♦5♥ where Brandon Shack-Harris bet 6,000 from the hijack. David Bullinger called on the button, as did Griffin Goodman in the big blind while David Williams folded in the small blind.
Action checked to Bullinger on the 10♥ turn and he bet 12,000. Goodman got out of the way, while Shack-Harris called. Both Bullinger and Shack-Harris then checked the 6♣ river.
Shack-Harris showed A♠9♦7♥3♦2♣ for a straight and nut low, and Bullinger mucked.
Leandro Pimentel opened to 2,000 from under the gun and found a call from John Racener in the big blind.
Racener checked the 7♥7♠J♦ flop, making the call after Pimentel continued for 4,000. The dealer flipped over the 10♦ turn, where both players checked.
Another pair of checks followed the 9♥ river, with Racener tabling A♦Q♦10♣8♣4♣ for a straight. That was good enough to claim the pot as Pimentel mucked.
Heads-up on a flop of 6♣4♦K♣, Max Hoffman bet 7,500 from early position and David Israelite moved all in for 35,000 in middle position. Hoffman called to put him at risk.
David Israelite: A♣K♠Q♣5♦4♥
Max Hoffman: A♦9♠7♠3♥2♦
Israelite was ahead with two pair, while Hoffman had outs to a straight and low. The turn was the Q♥, while the 10♦ river kept Israelite in the lead and earned him a double up.
Andrew Brown moved all in for 46,500 from the big blind and Brian Hacker put him at risk in the hijack.
Andrew Brown: A♦K♣Q♠7♠5♠
Brian Hacker: A♥Q♥Q♦3♥2♦
Hacker spiked the last queen on the 4♥Q♣7♣ flop to make top set, while the rest of the board ran out K♦J♥ to secure him the pot and send Brown to the rail.
Filippos Stavrakis was already all in as Yuri Dzivielevski and Jacobo Garza Ibarrola went to a flop of 8♥5♦7♦. Garza Ibarrola then potted to 20,500 under the gun, Dzivielevski moved all in from the cutoff, and Garza Ibarrola called for 35,000.
Filippos Stavrakis: A♦K♠5♣4♦2♠
Jacobo Garza Ibarrola: A♣6♦4♣2♥2♦
Yuri Dzivielevski: A♠10♠8♠7♥2♣
All three players had the nut low, while Garza Ibarrola had flopped a straight. He ended up taking three-quarters of both pots once the board ran out 4♥J♣.
"I don't even get the extra chip," Stavrakis lamented as it took a few minutes for the pot to be properly chopped up.
