Barry Greenstein was all in and at risk on third against Alexander Kostritsyn. Greenstein began the hand in the lead with a pair of 2s but Kostritsyn went ahead with queens on fifth. It came down to seventh where Kostritsyn still had one pair so Greenstein would need to pair one of his previous cards to stay in contention. It was not meant to be however as he peeled the and signed his book for Kostritsyn before leaving. Kostritsyn has retaken the chip lead once again

We've now not lost a player for nearly 90 minutes now. The play has almost ground to a halt as the players' stacks have gotten fairly deep and at this moment no-one is particularly running away with the tournament as can often be the case.
The level went up around fifteen minutes though so it surely is only a matter of time the numbers start to drop again.
