We caught up to the three handed action on the turn on the board. There was already about 1,500,000 it the pot and the player first to act checked.
Jean Gaspard tossed out a bet of 450,000 and Nikolaos Platis moved all in for about 1,100,000.
It folded back to Gaspard who gave it some thought and he eventually folded. Platis dragged in the massive pot and he has moved into the chip lead with just 24 players remaining.

For the first time tonight we have a new chip leader as Norman Rodriguez has inched past Jean Gaspard. They're not alone at the top however as Nikolaos Platis has quietly been building a monster stack.
Platis is now playing 1,100,000 and he's sharing the felt with Gaspard so there's plenty of potential for a massive pot if these big stacks elect to clash.
The players are now on a 15-minute color up break and we'll pick back up on the live tournament action when play resumes.
