Ryan Johnson made it 10,000 to go from the cutoff and only Ian Matakis called on the button.
Both players checked the 4♦10♣2♥ flop to see the 6♦ hit the turn. Johnson checked, and Matakis bet 8,000. Johnson quickly called.
Two more checks followed on the J♠ river and Johnson showed K♥Q♥J♦9♦ for a pair of jacks. Matakis had that beat with A♥J♣9♥7♦ for the same pair with a better kicker.
The dinner break had little affect on Kevin Hyde, who nearly doubled his stack in an hour of play since (1 1/2 levels), amassing 1.18 million chips (more than seven times the average chip stack.
Hyde was the chip leader through the first 10 levels with 600k.
Daniel Negreanu was facing a bet of 21,000 from Isaac Kempton on a board reading A♥K♠9♣6♦7♣.
He spent some time mulling it over before saying, "If I had a bluff catcher, I guess this would be it..." before putting out a single chip to signify a call.
Kempton made a face and flashed the 2♥2♠, prompting to Negreanu to table his A♠J♠6♠5♦, showing two pair and allowing Kempton to muck the rest of his hand.
Readers will have to view Negreanu's VLOG to get the full hand history, as he hastily left the table to recap his hero call.

Blinds: 1,500/3,000
Ante: 3,000
Four players saw the dealer spread out a flop of 2♥J♥8♣ with 34,500 in the pot. Kurt Wildin checked from the small blind before Robert Cowen potted in from the big blind. Dylan Weisman repotted it from early position, which forced David Paredes to fold from the cutoff, and Wildin to also fold. Cowen called for the last of his chips and the cards were revealed with Cowen at risk.
Robert Cowen: 8♥6♦2♦3♥ 
Dylan Weisman: J♦J♠10♥7♦
Weisman had top set and was currently in the lead against Cowen's bottom two pair and flush draw. The rest of the board ran out 3♠10♦ and all of Cowen's chips were sent over to Weisman.
George Wolff raised to 6,500 from under the gun; and to his immediate left, Ivan Starostin made it 23,000 to go. Action folded back around to Wolff who called.
After an A♣8♣6♥ flop, Wolff checked, and Starostin bet the pot leaving roughly 10,000 behind. Wolff announced all-in, Starostin quickly called, and cards were flipped.
George Wolff: K♣J♠10♣8♠
Ivan Starostin: A♥A♠9♣6♣
In need of a club, Wolff was given two, as a 3♣ hit the turn, and a J♣ hit the river. Securing himself a chip stack of over 300,000 at the expense of Starostin's tournament life.
Ren Lin and [Removed:548] went heads up to a flop of A♣A♥5♥. [Removed:549] started off the aggression with a bet of 5,000 that Ren Lin called.
The turn brought the K♣ and [Removed:549] slowed down with a check.
"Now he checks! How much are playing behind?", asked Linn before taking an inventory of [Removed:549]'s chips — approximately a starting stack.
Linn slid forward a bet of 15,000 and [Removed:549] made the call.
When [Removed:549] checked the Q♥ river Lin joked, "Oh, he has quads... what do I do against quads?!" before eventually checking and making [Removed:549] table the A♦K♦7♥5♠ for the flopped boat.
"That's for not picking me in fantasy!", needled [Removed:549].
"That's because you don't know how to play PLO..."
On a flop of 8♣4♥4♣ and with a healthy-sized pot already formed, Steven Forman check-raised to 65,000 from late position over a bet from Georgios Tsoupras out of the next seat. Tsoupras called to see a turn.
Forman immediately jammed for 76,000 when the 3♦ landed on the turn. Tsoupras got a count from the dealer and then called for just over half of his remaining chips.
Steven Forman: K♦6♥5♥4♦
Georgios Tsoupras: A♠A♥8♦6♦
Tsoupras had aces, but Forman was ahead with trip fours. The river came the K♠ to give Forman a boat, and he doubled up at the expense of Tsoupras.
