Likely the biggest pot of the tournament so far took place right before players headed to their second break as Dan Zack, Matthew Wantman and another player were all eliminated.
After several raises preflop, the betting stopped at 33,400 with two players all in and the other two with crumbs behind. The rest of the chips got in the middle on the flop of 2?4?8? with David Mzareulov having his three opponents covered.
Dan Zack: 10?10?8?5?
Matthew Wantman: A?Q?J?7?
Opponent: K?K?7?3?
David Mzareulov: 9?7?6?5?
Players scrambled to see what each other had as the board finished out 4?3?, leaving Mzareulov with a straight to scoop the pot for a triple knockout.

Earlier this month, thanks to an unfavorable city vote, Doug Polk was unsuccessful in his bid to open a massive poker room in a town near Dallas. But his team of investors, including poker vloggers Andrew Neeme and Brad Owen, are back and ready to take over what will soon become the largest card room in Texas.
Polk, who is playing in the Hustler Casino Live Million Dollar Game this week, announced during Wednesday's HCL stream that his team has purchased Rounders Card Club in San Antonio. The group already owns The Lodge Card Club in Round Rock, a suburb of Austin, and that room is currently the biggest in the Lone Star State with over 70 poker tables.
The completed board of 7?4?6?7?8? was already on the table, and Erick Lindgren checked to Sterling Savill who fired a bet of 12,000 into the pot of about 26,000.
Lindgren sighed as his tossed in a call, and Savill announced a full house as he tabled 8?7?6?6?. Lindgren tapped the table and released his cards.

Action folded around to the cutoff who made it 2,000. Richard Salas raised in the button to 5,000. The blinds folded and the cutoff called.
A flop of A?3?6? saw both players check.
Again, both players checked the turn 5?
However, the cutoff led the river 8? with a bet of 10,000 and Salas thought briefly before calling.
The cutoff showed KxJ?7?6? for just one pair, and Salas showed K?10?8?8x for a rivered set.

Ante: 1,200
Ka Kwan Lau opened 3,000 in the hijack, and Yin Wu three-bet 8,000 next to act. The small blind made the call, and Lau followed suit.
When the 10?6?3? flop hit the felt, the small blind checked to Lau who dropped a stack of reds across the line. Wu quickly jammed for 33,200, forcing the small blind out of the pot, and Lau made the call.
Yin Wu: Q?Q?6?6?
Ka Kwan Lau: K?K?J?7?
Wu had flopped a set of sixes, and was able to fade the flush draw of Lau as the dealer ran out the 4? turn, and 2? river.
