Players are going on the first 15-minute break of Day 1c.
The field has grown to 195 entries so far, with 167 players remaining.
Alexander Kartveli opened from the cutoff and the button called as Nicholas Harper came along from the big blind.
The flop of 7♥K♦Q♠ checked through and Harper bet 1,000 on the K♥ turn. Only Kartveli called. Harper sized up to 2,000 on the 10♣ turn and Kartveli again called before showing Q♣J♠ to win the pot with a pair of queens.
Mario Colavita bet 3,000 from early position on a flop of J♦4♣9♠ and an opponent in middle position raised to 8,000. Kevin Berman then moved all in for 10,200 on the button and both opponents called.
The turn was the 8♣ and Colavita quickly got his last 30,000 in the middle.
Kevin Berman: Q♥10♦
Mario Colavita: Q♦10♠
Opponent: A♣A♦
Both Berman and Colavita had turned the nut straight as the river came the 6♠. They chopped the main pot, while Colavita doubled up in the side pot.
Jeff Platt and Timothy Joseph built a pot of around 10,000 as they went to the turn on a board of 9♦10♣6♦7♦. Platt then bet 5,000 on the button and Joseph moved all in for 18,000 in the small blind.
Platt called with 8♠6♠ for a straight, while Joseph had J♠J♦. The river was the K♦ and Joseph spiked a flush to win the pot and double up.
Oleg Kuzmin was all in for 37,900 from early position as Terry Fleischer had him at risk on the button.
Oleg Kuzmin: A♠A♦
Terry Fleischer: A♥K♠
Kuzmin had woken up with aces and was a big favorite to double up as the board ran out Q♣6♠7♦3♦3♠, securing him the pot and leaving Fleischer, already on his second bullet of the day, on a short stack once again.

A few hands after losing most of his stack to Nawaung Maran, Karl Heppner moved all in for 8,300 from under the gun on a flop of Q♥7♠9♣ and Terry Fleischer called in middle position. Action then went on Tomasz Mroz in the big blind who took a few minutes before folding.
Karl Heppner: A♦Q♣
Terry Fleischer: 7♣7♦
"I had ace-queen," Mroz admitted as Fleischer had Heppner drawing thin with a set. The board ran out J♦5♠ and Heppner was sent to the rail.
Karl Heppner bet 1,200 from middle position on a flop of A♣9♠8♦ and was called by three opponents, including Nawaung Maran in the hijack.
The turn was the 7♠ and Heppner bet another 2,400. Maran then moved all in for 16,500 and the table folded back to Heppner, who called to put Maran at risk.
Heppner showed A♠10♠ for top pair and the nut flush draw, while Maran had A♥Q♦. The 3♣ river was safe for Maran and he doubled up.
