Chip Counts
David Wang raised to 2,100 in the cutoff, and was called by Sebastian Pauli in the small blind and Erik Seidel in the big blind.
The flop came 9♣8♥6♥ and it checked to Wang, who bet 2,200. Only Seidel called to see the 4♦ turn, where both players checked.
On the 3♦ river, Seidel tossed out a 5,000 denomination chip, and Wang made the call.
"Two pair," announced Seidel as he turned over Q♦9♥7♠6♦ to take down the pot.
Espen Oeye limped in from under the gun, and Wai Ngai raised to 2,700 in the cutoff. Yang Wang called in the small blind, and Oeye called as well.
The action checked through on the 9♣2♣8♠ flop, but when it checked to Ngai for a second time on the 5♣ turn, he bet 6,000. Both Wang and Oeye called.
The river brought the 5♠, and Wang checked for a third time. Oeye, though, counted out his stack before betting 19,800, leaving a single 100 chip behind. The bet received two quick folds, and the dealer pushed Oeye the pot.
James Obst opened to 1,200 from the cutoff and was called by Jeremy Ausmus on the button, Jonathan Greene in the small blind, and Zachary Gruneberg in the big blind for a four-way pot.
Action checked to Ausmus who put a single bind blind of 600 into the middle on the 2♥A♣A♠ flop. Everyone folded in turn and Ausmus was sent the pot without resistance.
Action picked up on the turn in a hand between the under-the-gun Paul Haus and Chris Hunichen in the big blind.
With the board reading 7♥A♠10♦5♦, Hunichen check-called a bet of 7,000 from Haus bringing the 2♦ river.
Both players checked and Haus tabled the winner with A♥J♣10♣9♠ for two pair, aces and tens.
These are the top 20 stacks returning from the break, as per the WSOP LIVE app.

Players have been sent on another 15-minute break and will return to blinds at 300/600 with a 600 big blind ante.
Action picked up on the river in a hand between Dmitrii Perfilev and Richard Harris.
With about 52,000 in the pot and the board reading 2♣5♥2♠Q♣K♠, Perfilev bet enough to put Harris all in, who had about 48,000 back.
Harris went into the tank, eventually finding the fold and Perfilev showed three cards: 3♠3♣2♦.
