Players are now on a short 10-minute break
When it folded to Mario Colavita in the small blind he moved all-in for 14,700,000. Stanislav Zegal looked at his cards in the big blind and snap-called.
Mario Colavita: J?3?
Stanislav Zegal: A?K?
The runout of 6?6?6?9?3? meant Colavita had caught a three on the river to double up.

John Racener raised to 3,200,000 from the hijack and Bogdan Munteanu called from the cutoff.

The 9? turn and 6? river got checked down and Racener took down the pot with A?K? for ace-high.

Ching Da Wu opened the action with a minraise from under the gun. Michael Baltierra was next to act in the hijack and went all in for around 13,000,000 chips. The rest of the table folded back to Wu, who snap-called and had Baltierra covered.
Michael Baltierra: 6?6?
Ching Da Wu: A?K?
The flop 10?8?7? kept the advantage for Baltierra, who added a gutshot to his pair of sixes.
The turn A?, however, changed everything and Baltierra let out an expletive. He was now drawing very thin, to only four nines for a gutshot and two sixes for the set.
The river was the 8? and Baltierra, who without a doubt would win the award for the biggest and loudest rail of the day, was escorted with applause and the rail’s patented call: “Mike, Mike!”

David Cabrera Polop raised to roughly 6,000,000 under the gun with just 2,000,000 behind. After the rest of the table Bogdan Munteanu called from the big blind.
Munteanu bet enough to put Polop all-in on the Q?J?9? flop and Polop called.
David Cabrera Polop: A?10?
Bogdan Munteanu: K?Q?
Munteanu was ahead with top pair but Polop had a lot of outs to stay alive. The turn came the 10? and river was the 4?, meaning Munteanu had eliminated Polop with a pair of queens.

Chad Lipton has been eliminated in 8th place during the following intense hand:
Chad Lipton raised from late position to 2,400,000 and Bogdan Munteanu three-bet to 5,700,000. Lipton placed the four-bet of 10,000,000 and Munteanu five-bet all in for effective 24,800,000 and Bogdan called.
Chad Lipton: A?Q?
Bogdan Munteanu: A?J?
The board came out very well for Munteanu despite being behind with 9?J?8?7?J? and the trip jacks were enough to eliminate Lipton.

Action folded to Luis Yepez in the cutoff and he moved all in for around 7,000,000 chips. Chad Lipton on the button re-raised all in for 13,500,000. Michael Baltierra in the small blind seemed interested, but ultimately folded, as did the big blind.
Luis Yepez: 7?7?
Chad Lipton: A?K?
It was a classic flip. Yepez let out a disappointed sigh when the K?A?4? showed up on the flop. He was down to two outs.
The turn came the Q? and the river 6? and Yepez’s tournament was over in ninth place.
