The tournament is down to 16 players, and the clock has been paused in order to allow the tournament director to perform a full redraw.

The top 11 players will be paid and the tournament will stop at the end of this level.

The 18 players are coming back from the last break of the evening. Just before the break, we caught a hand on table #60 involving Peter Daniel Weinand, Hannes Speiser, and Anatolly Fillatov.

The blinds were 35K / 70K and Speiser, holding , went all-in from the cut-off. On the button, Filatov smooth called with big slick . Big blind Weinand shoved on top for approximately 3.7 million chips, holding cowboys .  After asking for a count, Filatov quickly made the call.

The flop came out: , Weinand was happy with the over pair for now.  The on the turn burst  his bubble and he was desperately hopping for the last king of the deck.  Filatov was already shrugging his shoulders, reminding everyone that he never wins with AK over KK.  The river changed everything: , allowing top straight to Fillatov and sending Weinand and Speiser to the rail.

We went around the three remaining tables to see who was in the lead.  Not surprising, Paulin is still the chip leader with 18,320,000 chips.  His closest rival is Brian Yoon with 13,255,000.  Rounding out the 8-figure club are Anatolly Filatov and Manig Loeser, with 12,705,00 chips and 10,255,000 chips respectively.

The clock was paused so the tournament personnel could close a table and introduce the shot clocks/time cards.  The players are grinding and being careful with their chip management.  The larger stacks are preying on the smaller ones, as usual, but the blinds are still not too high and allow for some maneuverability.

The last break of the evening is coming up between levels 16 and 17 and we’ll make sure to get an updated chip count.

There are currently 27 players left in Event #6 – $10,000 + $300 High Roller Day 2.

Some serious poker is being played and everyone has their eye on the prize pool.

Here are some photos of the players taken just before the last break.

It was a heartbreaking end for Jeremy Ausmus. The hand played out between Ausmus and Brian Yoon.  The all-in from Ausmus was approximately 3.3 million chips, and Yoon had north of five million chips to his name.  Both players turned over their cards.

Soon after that hand, the players took a long break for dinner.  This allowed us to get chip counts from every player. Pierre-Paul Paulin is still going strong and remains the chip leader with 9,735,000 chips.  Brian Yoon, Manig Loeser and Monathan David Concepcion Tacoronte occupy the next three slots on the leader board, and are the only other players above 5,000,000 chips.
