The players are now on their third 15-minute break of the evening and will return to action momentarily.
Mustapha Tokko opened to 11,000 from early position and was called by the lojack and Sandeep Velkuru in the big blind.
When the flop came out 4♥3♦2♣, Velkuru led-jammed for 93,000 and Tokko shipped for more while the other player got out of the way.
Velkuru flipped over 10♠10♦ and was ahead against the A♦K♦ of Tokko. Unfortunately for him, the turn A♠ immediately gave Tokko the upper hand with his ace and the river 6♠ sealed Velkuru's fate. The pot was then shipped over to Tokko to boost his stack to over 250,000 while Velkuru was sent to the rail.

Cord Garcia and William Johnson got all the chips into the middle preflop, with Johnson at risk of elimination.
Johnson had the upper hand with A♠J♠ against the A♦6♦ of Garcia, but the runout was not his friend as it came Q♦9♦9♠8♠5♦ for Garcia to hit the flush on the river. Johnson made his way to the exit while his stack was shipped over to Garcia to add to his hoard.
