Jeffrey Durbin and David Paul entangled in an all-in pot preflop to put Durbin at risk.
Jeffrey Durbin: A♣10♠
David Paul: A♦K♠
Durbin was behind, but he traded three outs for four outs when the flop fanned out K♦8♠J♠. The 7♥ turn and the 3♠ river did not improve Durbin to a straight to send him out of the tournament.
Top ten chip counts according to the WSOP+ app.
Level: 9
Blinds: 600/1,200
Ante: 1,200
The players are now on their second 20-minute break of the day and play will resume at 2:55 p.m local time.
On the A♠8♣3♣ flop and the pot already at 8,500, Yamamoto Toshiyuki bet out for 1,200 from middle position and was called by Xiao Huang in late position.
Both players checked the 9♠ turn and saw the 3♥ drop on the river. Toshiyuki checked, and now Huang bet out for 3,500. Toshiyuki thought for a while before he flicked in the call and was shocked to see Huang table K♣Q♣ for a missed flush draw and quickly flipped his 10♥8♥ for two pair and was pushed the pot.
Sean Bartlett and Christopher Haydt got the chips in the middle preflop with Bartlett at risk for his tournament life.
Sean Bartlett: K♦5♦
Christopher Haydt: 9♥9♠
Bartlett was in trouble against Haydt's wired nines, but the flop changed that when it came 6♥A♦K♠ to give Bartlett a pair of kings. The J♦ turn eliminated one of Haydt's nines for an out, and the 10♦ river improved Bartlett to a flush to double through Haydt.
