Players have been sent on the last 15-minute break of the day, and will return to blinds at 60,000/120,000 with a 120,000 big blind ante.
Two more levels of play are on the agenda before bagging up for the night.
Paul McMullin raised to 200,000 from middle position, and Suru Patel defended his big blind.
The dealer spread the 9♥3♦7♥ flop, and Patel checked. McMullin fired a continuation-bet of 200,000, and Patel stuck in the call.
The 2♥ turn and 8♦ river checked through, and Patel won the pot with 6♣3♠ for a pair of threes. McMullin briefly thought he had made a straight with A♣10♣, but the dealer and the rest of the table quickly informed him that he had not.
The flop 10♣4♥5♥ was already dealt when the action got picked up.
Timothy Garner check-called the 225,000 bet of Alexander Dovzhenko. The turn showed K♣.
Dovzhenko put 700,000 chips in front of him and Garner opted to go all in, after which Dovzhenko decided to fold.
Action folded around to Kelley Slay in the small blind, who moved all in for 690,000 to put himself at risk. Marc Levy called in the big blind.
Kelley Slay: J♥10♣
Marc Levy: A♦5♠
Slay picked up additional outs with a gutshot on the 9♦7♠4♠ flop, and even more outs with a double-gutter on the K♣ turn.
The 9♣ river was a brick, and Slay's impressive tournament run came to an end.
Alexander Dovzhenko raised to 200,000 in middle position, and was called by Dhesikan Ananchaperumal in the hijack and Jorge Martinez in the big blind.
The flop came A♣A♥3♦ and it checked to Dovzhenko, who bet 150,000. Only Ananchaperumal called.
On the J♦ turn, Dovzhenko check-folded when Ananchaperumal bet 250,000.
Alexander Dovzhenko raised from the cutoff and Timothy Garner called from the big blind.
Garner check-called a bet from Dovzhenko on the Q♦9♣5♥ flop.
A 2♦ arrived on the turn, and Garner check-folded facing a bet of 650,000 from Dovzhenko.
The very next hand, Dovzhenko raised to 200,000 from the hijack and Susan Murphey called from the big blind.
Murphey checked the A♦J♦2♠ flop, and Dovzhenko fired for 200,000. Murphey called.
Both players were happy to check the A♠ turn and 2♦ river. Murphey showed Q♦10♠ for queen-high, but it was no good against Dovzhenko's K♠3♠ for king-high.
Laurence Lubliner opened to 400,000 from the cutoff. Kenna James decided to call in the big blind.
The dealer revealed the flop 4♣10♠6♣. James checked and Lubliner decided to go all in.
James opted to fold and left the pot for Lubliner.
Curtis Freeze raised to 225,000 from under the gun with Glen Clementi calling on the button and Barbara Sargent defending her big blind.
Sargent and Freeze checked the 10♦3♦K♦ flop, and Clementi fired 405,000. Sargent got out of the way and Freeze called.
Both players checked the A♣ turn before the 4♠ dropped on the river. Freeze led out for 500,000, and Clementi snap-called.
Freeze showed the nut flush with A♦2♦, causing Clementi to drop his head into his arms before paying off the bet with a stack of green T-25,000 chips.
Susan Murphey raised to 250,000 in middle position, Kenna James flatted in the cutoff, and Alexander Dovzhenko three-bet to 1,100,000 in the small blind.
Murphey thought for a moment before tossing her cards into the muck, as did James.
Mark Warling went all in preflop with his remaining stack of 1,565,000. Mark Forster reshoved to isolate.
Mark Warling: K♥Q♦
Mark Forster: A♠K♠
The dealer revealed the 4♦J♣3♣9♠8♣ board. Foster won the hand with ace high, sending Warling home.
