Jaehoon Baek raised from early position to 200,000 and faced a re-raise from Michael Jozoff from the button to 475,000.
Baek moved all-in for 1,505,000 and was called by Jozoff.
Jaehoon Baek: A♠A♥
Michael Jozoff: J♦J♣
Baek held on the 2♣Q♦3♣10♥2♦ board to double through Jozoff.
Justin Zaki raised to 575,000 from late position, leaving one 5,000 chip behind, Jaehoon Baek called from the hijack, and Michel Molenaar moved all in for 1,500,000 from the small blind. Zaki called for his last chip, and Baek folded.
Justin Zaki: K♣10♦
Michel Molenaar: A♣J♠
The board came out with 3♠5♠2♣7♥2♦, and ace high with a pair of twos would be enough to win and eliminate Zaki.
Level: 28
Blinds: 50,000/100,000
Ante: 100,000
Players are now on break for 15 minutes. A total of 18 players remain in the $2,500 No Limit Hold'em Freezeout event.

Molenaar check-called 150,000 on the K♥8♦5♦ flop and both players checked the J♣ turn.
The river was the 9♥ and Molenaar checked. Jozoff bet 650,000 and after some thought, Molenaar called.
Jozoff tabled A♦K♦ for top pair and won the pot.

Breno Drumond raised to 160,000 from the hijack and was called by Ran Ilani in the big blind.
The flop of 2♣A♠9♥ was checked by Ilani before Drumond bet 120,000 and was called by Ilani.
The 3♠ turn saw both players check.
Ilani checked the 4♠ river, which led to a bet of 415,000 from Drumond. Ilani thought about it for some time before he called.
Drumond showed A♦4♦ for two pair. Ilani mucked his hand.
Justin Zaki shoved for 350,000. Demetrius Campbell was in the small blind and placed a large stack of chips in front of him.
"I have something," said Mihai Manole in the big blind before tank-folding 6♥6♦.
Justin Zaki: K♠8♣
Demetrius Campbell: A♠Q♥
The board came K♦9♥5♣3♣8♠ and Zaki doubled up.
Ben Fan jammed from the small blind and was called in the big blind by Pawel Brzeski to put Fan at risk for his tournament life.
Ben Fan: 9♥5♠
Pawel Brzeski: K♣Q♠
Fan said, "Gamble," as the board was dealt out.
The flop came 8♣Q♦6♠ to give Brzeski a lead, but Fan did flop a gutshot to a straight.
The Q♥ restricted Fan to his straight outs, and the A♠ river was the final card Fan would see.
Fan received $15,720 for his effort.
