In the last hand before the dinner break, Craig Savage open-jammed on the button. Mark Evangelista snap-called in the big blind, being the player at risk for 2,200,000.
Mark Evangelista: 7♠7♣ 
Craig Savage: A♣J♥
Savage hit an ace on the 4♣A♠8♣ flop for a massive lead. No seven appeared on the 9♥ turn, and the A♦ river gave Savage three of a kind to lock up the pot and eliminate Evangelista

Short-stacked, Alexander Gittings moved his last 150,000 into the middle, just under the big blind. Sean Cronin called from the small blind, and Enrique Baldeon checked his option in the big.
The three saw a runout of 2♥5♥K♥7♣10♥, and with no action on any street, it went straight to showdown.
Gittings revealed A♣5♠ for a pair of fives, Cronin showed J♠9♣ for jack high, but Baldeon tabled 9♥6♦ for a rivered flush to win the pot and send Gittings to the rail.
After being down to a single 100,000 chip, Mark Evangelista was able to spin it up and get back to 1,000,000. From there, he moved all in from the cutoff to put himself at risk and Abhishek Mhatre called in the big blind.
Mark Evangelista: J♠10♠
Abhishek Mhatre: A♦4♥
The flop came 4♠8♠5♦ with Mhatre still out in the lead but Evangelista still had plenty of outs. The turn landed the 5♣ and Evangelista got there on the 9♠ river by hitting the flush to double up.
Hai Nguyen open-shoved under the gun for 4,475,000 and Stephen Hubbard reshoved on the button to isolate.
Hai Nguyen: 10♦10♦
Stephen Hubbard: A♣J♦
It was a classic coin flip situation but Nguyen came out on top when the board ran out 4♥6♠8♦10♣A♥, improving to a set of tens.
Yudai Futai opened the action with a raise to 800,000 from late position, and Matthew Hayes defended his big blind with a call.
The flop came 9♠J♦5♦, and Hayes led out for 900,000. Futai called without much hesitation.
Both players then checked the 6♥ on the turn.
When the J♥ hit the river, Hayes tried once more with a bet of 1,200,000, but Futai snap-called. Hayes tabled 9♣4♠ for a pair of nines, but Futai showed 10♠10♣ for a better pair and scooped in the pot.
Alexander Gittings open-shoved in the small blind, covering the 3,600,000 of Brian Biggs in the big blinds. Biggs spent some moments in thought before he wagered it all by making the call.
Brian Biggs: A♥4♦
Alexander Gittings: K♦2♦
Only Biggs made two pair on the 4♠10♦3♣Q♥10♠ runout. He celebrated his double-up, leaving Gittings with less than three big blinds.
Kevin Okeefe jammed and was called by Arthur Morris to send the two to a showdown with Okeefe at risk.
Kevin Okeefe: A♣J♣
Arthur Morris: 8♠8♥
It was a race between a pair versus overcards, and the J♦2♠6♣ flop appeared to give Okeefe the ticket to winning that race, but the brutal 8♦ turn gave Morris a set of eights to quickly reverse Okeefe's fortune. The 7♦ peeled off on the river to knock out Okeefe in 20th place. Okeefe was awarded $8,984 for his effort.
Brett Horton moved all in for 1,825,000 from middle position, and when the action reached Sean Cronin in the small blind, he took a moment before making the call. The big blind got out of the way, and the cards went on their backs.
Brett Horton: A♥9♥
Sean Cronin: A♦A♣
Perfect timing for Cronin to wake up with aces. The A♠8♥Q♥ flop gave Horton some life with a flush draw, but the 8♦ turn locked it up for Cronin with a full house. The 9♠ river changed nothing, and Horton was sent to the rail.
Alexander Gittings was in middle position when he shoved all in for 1,900,000. Tony Harrison, on the button, took his time before he made the call.
Alexander Gittings: Q♥10♣
Tony Harrison: A♣7♣
The board ran out of9♣Q♠Q♣3♦A♥, giving Gittings trips and a double-up to stay alive in the tournament.
