The money bubble is approaching, slowly. There are 75 players remaining and 71 will make the money. Players are taking their time to act and most pots are being taken down with a single preflop raise or flop bet.

Simone Andrian moved all in from the hijack for his last 196,000. Thomas Groven looked up the bet in the cutoff.
Simone Andrian: A♦10♦
Thomas Groven: J♥J♠
The board ran out in dramatic fashion as the first four cards were dealt 3♣9♥7♦J♦. With Groven hitting a set on the turn, Andrian looked like he'd accepted defeat; that was until the 8♦ landed on the river, doubling him up.
