The final four players are now on their second 20-minute break of the day, which means we are too.
Only two hands made it to fourth street in the latest round of razz, so no chips really move. The players have now moved on to pot-limit Omaha.
Omaha 8
Action folded to Abe Mosseri in the small blind and he raised, which prompted Brandon Shack-Harris to called from the big. The flop saw Mosseri bet, Shack-Harris raise, and Mosseri call to see the turn. Mosseri check-called a bet of 160,000 and then did the same on the river.
Shack-Harris rolled over the for a full house and the nut low, which was good enough to scoop the pot.

Omaha 8
Brandon Shack-Harris limped under the gun (he would later admit that he thought he was putting out the big blind), and that inspired three other players to do the same. The flop saw three players checked to John Hennigan, and he bet 80,000 from the button. Abe Mosseri called from the small blind, and then Chun Lei "samorstan" Zhou check-raised to 160,000. Shack-Harris folded, the other two players called, and three players watched the dealer burn and turn the .
Mosseri checked, Zhou bet all in for his last 160,000, and both Hennigan and Mosseri called. The two active players then checked the river.
Mosseri:
Hennigan:
Zhou: .
Zhou's two pair was no good as Mosseri had a flush for the high and Hennigan an 8-7-4-2-A low. The last of Zhou's chips were chopped up and he was dispatched in fifth place for $286,122.
