The 1,054 players remaining in this flight are now in the midst of a 15-minute break.
With heaps of chips already in the middle of the table on a board of , Jeff Fielder bet 15,000.
Michael Gagliano was to his right and he moved all in for just about 25,000 more. Fielder sighed, leaned back and said, "As soon as I bet 15,000 I knew this was going to happen."
Eventually, Fielder settled on a call. Gagliano turned up for a set of sixes, but Fielder showed
for a higher set of queens. Gagliano immediately realized his fate, stood up, wished everyone luck and exited the tournament area while Fielder became one of the tournament's chip leaders.

The flop was and Cheong checked. Action was on Wong and he said, "I can't act until I'm done chugging this beer." He then cheers'd with JC Tran and Wilson before he displayed one of the worst chugging skills this reporter has seen in a while, and then checked. Wilson bet 2,175 and Cheong called, Wong folded.
The turn was the and Cheong check-called Wilson's bet of 2,675.
The river was the and both players checked. Cheong announced, "four high." and Wilson tabled
to take it down.
After the hand the players were joking and laughing. Wong asked, "Isn't this the most fun table you guys have ever played on?" to which most agreed as the drinking continued. They are by far the most boisterous table in the room and they are all having a great time.

Phil Hellmuth opened with a raise to 1,800 from the button and he was called by the small blind. Both players checked on the flop.
The small blind continued with a check on the turn, then called a bet of 1,200 from Hellmuth.
On the river the small blind checked again and Hellmuth checked it back.
"King high," he said. The small blind showed for what must've been a better king high because Hellmuth mucked.
Hellmuth though made no comment and only went back to playing on his cellphone without saying anything.
