The 6 players remaining at the final table are now on another quick 15-minute break and will return to battle shortly.
Mike Vanier moved all in preflop and was called by Stephen Moy (who now covered him) to ut him at risk.
Mike Vanier: A?Q?
Stephen Moy : 5?5?
Vanier would need some help to catch up, but the flop of 5?8?J? left him drawing only to a backdoor Broadway as Moy flopped a set of fives for a big lead.
Unfortunately for him, those dreams were dashed when the turn came the 8? to improve Moy to a full house, which left Vanier dead in the water. The river A? only added insult to injury and Moy was pushed the pot while Vanier exited in 7th place.

On a heads-up flop of 4?10?5?, Stephen Moy checked to Mike Vanier, who bet 175,000 into the pot of 450,000.
Moy then check-raised all in for 1,565,000 and Vanier made the call to put him at risk after some tanking.
Stephen Moy: 10?3?
Mike Vanier: 8?8?
Moy was ahead with his superior pair of tens, and the runout of 4?Q? kept it that way to score a double for Moy.
"What did you think, I was just putting it in with nothin!?" Moy said to Vanier as he raked in the pot .

After doubling up Stephen Moy the previous hand with 9?9? vs A?10? on a 5?6?8?J?A? runout, Scott Buller got the rest of his stack into the middle against David Fager.
Scott Buller: K?6?
David Fager: A?K?
Buller would need some help to stay alive, but the ace came right in the window of the A?9?10? flop to leave him dead to running sixes. The runout came 8?9?, failing to save him and he was eliminated in eighth place.

Adam Bacome : A?K?
