Players are now on a 15-minute break. At the conclusion of this break, late registration will officially close.
Ryan Riess raised it up on the button and Phuoc Vo called from the big blind. The flop came K♠4♠4♥ and both players checked through to the 5♠ on the turn and the 7♠ on the river.
Vo did something that looked like a check on the river which led to Riess throwing in a bet of 25,000 just ahead of Vo tossing in a bet of 11,000. It was ruled that Vo didn't check and his bet of 11,000 would stand with Riess having all of his options available. Riess chose to raise to 50,000 and Vo dumped his cards into the muck.

Shaun Deeb and Yueqi Zhu were heads-up in a pot with around 45,000 in the middle. The flop came 7♣4♠4♣ and the two players got their chips in the middle with Deeb at risk for 26,500.
Shaun Deeb: A♣Q♣5♥3♥
Yueqi Zhu: AxAx6x5x
The 9♦ on the turn changed nothing but the 9♣ on the river gave Deeb a flush and that was enough to double up through Zhu.

Multi ways to the 8♥6♥4♦ flop, the action checked to Phillip Mighall and he bet 7,500. Charles Sylvestre and Rami Boukai called to then see the 4♠ on the turn. Boukai checked once again, and Mighall now bet 15,500. Sylvestre folded, and Boukai called.

The action folded around to Donald Maloney in the small blind, who just limped in. Ian O'Hara checked his option in the big blin,d and the dealer fanned the flop of 10♠5♥2♣. Maloney threw in a min-bet of 3,000, and O'Hara called.
The turn was the J♣, and Maloney flicked in a bet of 10,000 this time. O'Hara still called, and the 9♥ completed the board. Both players ended up checking it down, and Maloney tabled 10♣8♦6♠6♣ for just a pair of tens, which turned out to be the best hand.
