The 184 players who remain in the Irish Open Main Event have been sent on their final 20-minute break of the night.
When they return, they will play two more 60-minute levels before the day wraps up.
Tarmo Tammel raised to 25,000 from middle position and Emmett Mullin called in the cutoff. Simon Wilson squeezed to 103,000 from the small blind.
Tammel announced his all-in for 320,000 after a while, after which Mullin went all in as well, for 481,000.
Wilson asked for both counts and went deep into the tank. After a few minutes, he came out with a call, covering both of his opponents and creating a pot worth well over one million chips.
Tarmo Tammel: 10♠10♦
Emmett Mullin: Q♠Q♣
Simon Wilson: A♣K♥
Wilson needed to hit an ace or king to scoop up the gigantic pot, and he did just so on the 4♣A♦J♦ flop. Neither the 3♠ turn nor 4♠ river made either of his opponents a set, and Wilson scored a double knock-out while simultaneously grabbing the chip lead.

All of Sokratis Linaras' 185,000 chips went in from early position, and he was looked up by Adam Lappin in the big blind.
Sokratis Linaras: 6♠6♣
Adam Lappin: 10♥10♦
It was looking game over for the bracelet winner from Greece after the Q♦4♦K♣ flop, but the 6♥ turn saw him hit a two-outer to stay alive. The 2♥ river did nothing to change that and Linaras doubled up, leaving Lappin with just under 25 big blinds.

Joel Baxter raised to 25,000 from the cutoff before Panagiotis Mavritsakis jammed all in for 209,000 in the big blind. Baxter asked for a count and made the call shortly thereafter with the bigger stack.
Panagiotis Mavritsakis: 4♦4♣
Joel Baxter: 8♣8♦
It was looking like the end for Mavritsakis' tournament run after finishing in third place last year, but the 2♠K♠4♠ saw him hit a four to take a massive lead. The 5♠ turn brought some chop outs, but the 7♦ river remained clean for the Greek to book a double-up and remain in contention.

Alexander D'Souza had jammed all in for 185,000 from the small blind on a completed board of J♠J♥2♥9♥A♠. With 500,000 already in the pot prior to that, Ioannis Angelou-Konstas went deep into the tank in the big blind.
Eventually, he made the call after which D'Souza showed down A♣J♣ for a full house. Angelou-Konstas flashed AxKx for the losing hand, which quickly disappeared into the muck.
D'Souza doubled up to a stack of more than double the average, while Angelou-Konstas was left with around 25 big blinds to play with.

Vytauras Aganauskas shipped in his stack of 122,000 from early position and was called by Pablo Villena in the small blind.
Vytauras Aganauskas: 7♠7♦
Pablo Villena: 10♥10♦
The hand was almost over as Villena hit a set on the J♦10♣5♦ flop, and the 5♣ turn sealed the deal. The 3♣ river was inconsequential as Villena scored a knock-out to chip up above the average stack.

Ioannis Angelou-Konstas got his stack of 275,000 chips in the middle against Keith Cummins.
Ioannis Angelou-Konstas: A♣K♦
Keith Cummins: Q♥Q♦
The K♣A♠Q♣ flop left Angelou-Konstas with just four outs to hit against Cummins' set, and none arrived on the 8♦ turn. The A♥ river, however, saw him make the better full house and he raked in a sizable double-up.
