The players are taking their first 20-minute break of the day.
2013 World Series of Poker
Michael Mizrachi just found himself in a three-way battle with David "ODB" Baker and Daniel Negreanu in which he had position on the other two, but was playing with a short stack.
They reached the first draw with Baker and Mizrachi each taking two cards and Negreanu one. Baker checked, Negreanu bet, and both Mizrachi and Baker called. Baker and Negreanu took one each on the second draw while Mizrachi took two, and again it checked to Negreanu who bet. This time Mizrachi committed his last 15,000 with his call, and Baker called as well.
The third draw saw Baker taking one, Negreanu standing pat, and Mizrachi tanking for a while before discarding two. Baker then check-folded to Negreanu's bet, with the latter quickly saying "Ten!" as he tabled .
Mizrachi checked his cards, then shook his head when he saw he'd failed to draw a better hand and mucked.
After starting the day with one of the short stacks, Negreanu is now going to be taking the chip lead to the first break.

We only caught the tail end of the hand that got Daniel Negreanu the chip lead, but we know that Negreanu check raised Michael Mizrachi after the second draw. Both of them stood pat, and Negreanu bet again after the third draw. Mizrachi called, and Negreanu showed , which beat Mizrachi. Negreanu jumped up to 490,000 after that hand.
A few hands later, Mizrachi raised under the gun, and Eric Wasserson reraised from the button. Mizrachi called, then drew three, while Wasserson drew just one. Mizrachi check called, then drew one, while Wasserson stood pat. The same betting action happened, then the same draws, but this time, Mizrachi check folded.

Alexander Condon raised from under the gun and David Chiu defended his big blind. Both took two on the first draw, with Chiu betting and Condon calling. Chiu took one on the second and Condon two, and again Chiu bet and Condon called.
Chiu then stood pat as Condon drew one, and when Chiu bet Condon went into the tank for more than half a minute before folding, showing his as he did. Chiu grinningly showed two of his cards, too — — and Condon had to laugh.

Scott Seiver raised it up on the button, and Eric Wasserson called from the small blind. Wasserson drew two, while Seiver drew three, and Wasserson check called a bet from Seiver.
