The 12 players remaining are now on their fourth break of the day and will return to action shortly.
Xing He opened from the button to 100,000 and was called by Michael Valore in the big blind to see a flop of K♦J♥3♠.
He bet for 225,000 and Valore just called to continue to the turn K♠, which saw a check from both players.
On the river 3♣, He checked to Valore, who moved all in for 400,000 and sent He into the tank.
"Ughhhh.... alright I call.... You got it?" He asked as he tabled A♦A♠, but his stomach sank when Valore rolled over K♣3♠ for a full house.
"Woowwwwww!" He sighed dramatically as the majority of his stack was shipped to Valore.
Left with crumbs, He got it all in the following hand with king-jack against Thomas Gray with ace-queen. A king appeared on the flop to give He some hope, but that was shattered as the ace appeared on the river to send him to the rail in 13th place.

After an open from Kyle Grupp, Thomas Gray three-bet to 225,000 from the small blind. Grupp just called and the two went to the flop Q♥10♥5♣.
Gray continued for another 250,000 and again Grup just called to continue to the turn 10♠.
Gray then moved all in and Grupp snap-called, putting himself at risk.
"You got a boat?" Gray asked as he tabled K♠K♣, and Grupp replied by tabling A♠A♣.
"Oh wow... Man, we could have saved all of the drama and just got it in preflop!" Gray sighed as the river peeled the 5♥ to award the huge pot to Grupp.
Gray was left with only 200,000 after that exchange but managed to double up the very next hand with ace-high versus the king-queen of Grupp for a small rebate.

The action was picked up when David Manchen moved all in on a completed board of 9♦Q♥5♠5♥10♦ and was snap-called by David Berman to put him at risk.
But Manchen showed no fear as he confidently rolled over 5♦5♣ for quad fives while Berman tossed his straight with K♣J♣ into the muck and watched a large chunk of his stack move over to Manchen's side of the table.

After Casey Bogus limped from the small blind, Kyle Grupp moved all in for 325,000 from the big blind. Bogus then thought about it for a good while before he set out a stack to make the call, putting Grupp at risk.
Kyle Grupp: 6♣5♣
Casey Bogus: 10♥8♠
This call earned him few puzzled looks around the table, and although he was ahead with his ten-high, the runout of J♣6♠7♦6♥7♥ gave Grupp a full house to secure the double.
"Well damn, maybe i should have called last hand... " Xing He admitted, referring to the previous hand were he was debating on calling a preflop shove from Bogus but ultimately decided to fold.
