The 600 remaining Super Seniors are going on their first 20-minute break of the day.
They will return to Level 12, where blinds will be 2,000/3,000 with a big blind ante of 3,000
The action was picked up when the dealer showed the flop 7♠6♦6♣. Jack Fujita, in early position and Rob Hollink in middle position, both checked to see the turn 8♥.
Fujita put in 6,000 in the middle of the table and Hollink threw in 20,000 chips without hesitation. Fujita took a bit of time, but ultimately decided to fold.
Hollink took down the pot.
Lee Markholt opened to 5,500 from the hijack with Richard Martinez calling from the small blind and Michael Stanley coming along from the big blind.
Martinez opted to lead out for 6,000 on the Q♣2♥5♣ flop. Stanley folded and Markholt called.
Both players checked the 4♣ turn before the 4♦ arrived on the river. Martinez fired out 12,000, resulting in a tank-fold from Markholt.
When it folded to Douglas Fullerton in the small blind, he jammed for about 18,000 and got snapped off by Richard Wagner in the big blind.
Douglas Fullerton: K♠3♠
Richard Wagner: A♥7♠
Wagner had the best hand with ace-high, although that changed after the 6♠5♣8♠K♦K♣ runout, where Fullerton improved to trip kings.
Fullerton earned a much-needed double-up, while Wagner was left with fewer than ten big blinds.
Peter Magarelli raised to 6,000 from early position and the action folded to Robert LeBeau in the hijack. LeBeau paused for a while, causing the dealer to remind him of the raise size a few times. LeBeau responded, "No, I am just figuring out what to raise it to," before sliding out a stack of yellow T-1,000 chips and three-betting to 20,000.
Michael Dokell cold-called from the big blind, and Magarelli came along as well, sending the three players to the 6♣2♣6♠ flop.
After two checks, LeBeau jammed for his last 32,000. Dokell immediately called, while Magarelli folded.
Robert LeBeau: A♥A♦
Michael Dokell: K♣K♠
It was a brutal cooler of aces versus kings that somehow hadn't gotten all the chips in preflop.
Dokell picked up a flush draw on the 4♣ turn, but the Q♠ to complete the board was safe for LeBeau, and he doubled to more than 100,000.
Melinda Hipp limped the hijack, and Robert Pacleb limped the cutoff. Steve Story checked in the big blind to see the flop 4♥10♠J♥.
When it got to Hipp, she threw 6,000 chips in the middle and got called by Pacleb and Story for the turn K♥.
On the next street, Story checked, and Hipp put around 11,000 in front of her. Pacleb called, Story folded, and the river was the 8♣. Both checked, and Pacleb showed Kx10x and took down the pot with two pair.
First, Greg Raymer raised to 5,000 on the button and picked up the blinds. A few hands later, Raymer raised to around 5,000 again from the hijack, and Kenneth Hardy came along from the big blind.
Hardy started with a check on the 2♥8♦Q♠ flop, and as Raymer reached for chips, Hardy had already tossed his cards into the muck.
