Hand #49: Elton Tsang opened to 1,100,000 from under-the-gun and both blinds (James Bord and Anatoly Gurtovoy) called. On the 
flop Tsang continued for 1,400,000, Bord check-raised to 6,000,000 total and Gurtovoy folded. With action back on Tsang, he began riffling the 1,000,000 denomination plaques that have been introduced. It was as if he was saying. "Hey, I'm the chip leader buddy."
He smiled though and released his hand. Pot to Bord.
Hand #50: Anatoly Gurtovoy raised it up to 1,200,000 from the small blind and Elton Tsang smooth called out of the big blind. A bet of 1,600,000 from Gurtovoy on the 
flop was enough to earn him the pot.
Hand #51: Cary Katz had just three big blinds left and one of those was in the pot already as he was the big blind. Action folded to Elton Tsang and the chip leader joked that he shouldn't even look. He did look. Bad move. He folded 
face-up and Katz had gotten a walk! He showed 
.
Hand #52: Elton Tsang raised to 1,100,000 from the button and won the blinds and antes.
Hand #53 Anatoly Gurtovoy opened to 1,100,000 and although Brandon Steven tanked for a long time - it looked as if he was considering a shove - he folded and Gurtovoy took the pot.
Hand #54: Another raise and take, this time, Rick Saloman was the man collecting the blinds and antes.
