Players are now on a 90-minute dinner break.
After a player raised to 600 from middle position, a short-stacked Noah Schwartz moved all in from the big blind for 3,575. A call was made and the cards were turned up:

Schwartz:   |
Opponent:   |
It was a race, but Schwartz needed to improve to stay alive. He didn't like what he saw on the 
flop and stood from his seat, which brought about the

blanked on the river and Schwartz was eliminated just 15 minutes shy of the dinner break.
Meanwhile, Jean Paul Pasqualini is gaining momentum over at Table 11 and has built his stack up to 18,000.

and 
of his opponents. There would be no miracle for Shak and he last about a level and a half after late registering.
