Michiel Sijpkens is gone. He opened all-in for 2.5 million from late position with 
and was called by John Racener with 
. A queen on the flop gave Racener the lead, 
. He ended Sijpkens' tumultuous day with a 
turn and 
river.
Sijpkens leaves with $317,161 in prize money. The tournament is now on a pause as one table will be broken and the remaining 18 players will re-draw for seats.
Filippo Candio raised to 510,000 before Jason Senti reraised to 1.275 million. Candio called and the flop came down 
. Both players checked and the turn brought the 
.
Candio check-called a bet of 1.525 from Senti and the river came down the 
to pair the board. Candio checked and Senti fired 2.7 million. After a few minutes in the tank, Candio called.
Senti tabled the and Candio mucked.
Michiel Sijpkens is back on the short stack in a hurry. He opened his button to 480,000 was called only by small blind John Dolan. Both players checked an ace-high, paired flop, 
. When the turn came Dolan tried a bet of 425,000. Sijpkens called to see the 
hit the river. Dolan made a bet of 1.1 million. Sijpkens finally woke up with a raise to 2.6 million, but Dolan responded by moving all in for about 3.5 million total (900,000 more). Sijpkens couldn't fold 
, which was a problem as Dolan showed 
.
Under the gun, Jonathan Duhamel raised to 500,000 to open the pot and Adam Levy three-bet to 1.375 million from the button. When it came back to Duhamel, he four-bet to 2.725 million, and Levy decided to surrender and take the hit down to 7.8 million.
That break came at a great time for Michiel Sijpkens, allowing him a chance to cool off slightly. But coming back from the break he still had to win a flip against John Racener to right his ship. Racener opened for 450,000 pre-flop, then called after Sijpkens jammed from the big blind for about 3.0 million. Sijpkens tabled 
, while Racener showed . It was a four in the window, 
, with no further help materializing for Racener.
Action folded to Hasan Habib on the button. He shoved all in for 1.895 million and the two blinds folded.
Joseph Cheong raised to 475,000 and Matt Affleck reraised to 1.3 million. Cheong made the call and the flop came down 
. Both players checked to see the 
fall on the turn. Cheong bet 1.625 million and Affleck called.
The river was the 
and both players checked. Affleck showed the and Cheong mucked his hand.
We had an exceedingly rare three-way limped pot out of the break, with Brandon Steven and the blinds, Scott Clements and Michiel Sijpkens, taking a flop of 
. Clements had first action and bet 435,000. That bet folded Sijpkens, allowing Steven to raise to about 1.0 million. Clements responded by three-betting to 1.7 million, but quickly folded to Steven's all-in shove.
Steven is up to 7.4 million, while Clements now has only 4.1 million.
On the first two hands back from break, action folded to Hasan Habib and he shoved in. Both times everyone folded and Habib picked up the pot, adding 510,000 chips to his stack each time.
