The players are now enjoying a well deserved break.

[NoflopsHomer]

Players are on a 15 minute break whilst the 500 chips are coloured up.

When we come back, it'll be 5k/10k with a 1k ante.

[snoopy1239]

Mark Vos -- 250,000

[snoopy1239]

Matt Brady -- 140,000

[snoopy1239]

Bill Edler -- 350,000

[snoopy1239]

Speaking of Bill Edler, he prised a few chips out of table neighbour Phil Galford in a Seat 1 v Seat 2 battle. The pot had gotten pretty meaty, but a 40 bet from Edler on a board being enough to get the youngster to fold, and pretty swiftly too.

Eugene Katchalov is OUT.

Didn't spot his hand, but his terminator held A-T on a 3-K-A-4-T which did the job.

Phil Hellmuth is OUT.

vs

Ace on the turn.

This led to a typical moan followed by calling the guy who had been sitting to his right, 'the worst player I've ever seen.'

It must be so tough for Phil, every time the 'worst player ever' comes along, Phil ends up out... He's really jinxed.

[NoflopsHomer]

Matt Brady, a young player, who Pauly says, "Doesn't really play online but travels the tournament circuit like an old school pro..." just lost most of his stack to Dutch Boyd.

Brady bet 55k on the river of a board. Boyd made the call with and Brady mucked his .

[snoopy1239]

Nick Schulman is OUT, ran into , although was teased with a board.

[snoopy1239]

Looks like Matt Brady is also pushing up the daisies, he was spotted collecting his spondoolies just prior to the aforementioned Schulman.

[snoopy1239]

Crucial double up for Tony G, which has subsequtnly lured out with force the Tony G we all know and love/hate.

All-in with A-9 vs. J-T (on the flop, I think, which was K-Q-Q), Tony G jumped up into the like a salmon when the Turn brought and Ace, followed by a Queen River.

"Yeah, baby!" he exclaimed. "Now we're playing! You wanna gamble with J-T?"

Antonius is now on 110k.

[snoopy1239]

A few chippy counts accrued by my own fair hands:

Bill Edler -- 505,000
David Daneshgar -- 145,000
Erik Friberg -- 415,000
Mark Vos -- 225,000
Tony G -- 145,000
Phil Galfond -- 260,000
Bill Gazes -- 310,000
Dany Noam -- 145,000

and your current chip leader... Dutch Boyd -- 810,000

[NoflopsHomer]

Our remaining 26 players scattered on five tables. The first featuring an uberdwell from Bill Gazes after Ram Vaswani had called his 45k bet on the turn of a board then bet out 60k on the river when Bill checked. He eventually made the call and Ram showed to scoop.

[snoopy1239]

Still fast and furious here, but they'll be forced to slow down soon as the dinner break will commence in around 10 minutes.
