The remaining 76 players are now heading to their 60-minute dinner break. Play is expected to resume around 7:50 p.m.
Malcolm Franchi opened to 50,000 from early position before Philip Almond three-bet to around 140,000 from the cutoff. Action then was on Lexy Gavin-Mather on the button, who moved all in for 310,000. Franchi got out of the way, and after asking for a count, Almond made the call.
Lexy Gavin-Mather: A♠Q♥
Philip Almond: A♥10♦
Gavin-Mather was ahead and stayed there throughout the runout of 8♠4♣3♣5♦7♣. Her ace-queen held up against Almond's ace-ten, earning her a timely double-up just before the players headed on break.
On the last hand before the dinner break, Matt Glantz raised to 50,000 from middle position and got three callers.
After the flop came 2♦7♦4♣, Glantz moved all in with 2765,000 chips. Christos Argyriadis made the call from the button.
Matt Glantz: K♦4♦
Christos Argyriadis: 5♥4♥
Glantz was in decent shape with middle pair and a flush draw, but the turn and river 8♣6♠ didn't help him improve, while Argyriadis managed to hit a straight for the knockout.
Taylor Carlat opened to 50,000 in late position and got called by big blind Jiayi Yao to see a flop.
The dealer spread 5♣9♠J♦. Yao, after mulling things over, shoved all-in for around 290,000. Carlat instantly called putting Yao's tournament life at risk.
Jiayi Yao: J♠2♠
Taylor Carlat: A♠A♣
Yao let out a groan of frustration upon seeing Carlat's hand. He got on his feet but waited for the board to complete. The dealer finished the board with a K♦ turn and a 7♠ river. Having no chance to crack Carlat's aces, Yao quiet left the table and headed to the payout counter to claim his cash.
In some blind on blind action Antonio Vargas raised from the small blind to 80,000 and was looked up by Frank Degeorge in the big blind.
The action went check check on the 10♦2♦6♥ flop for the players to see the K♣ peel off on the turn.
Vargas led out for 60,000 and Degeorge made the call.
Both players checked on the 9♠ river and Degeorge tabled A♣10♥ for second pair which was good for the pot when Vargas mucked his cards.
