    The action has resumed after the first break of the day. When the buzzer sounded to indicate the start of level 4, 110 players were still involved. The first three levels only produced six eliminations, half of which have already used their re-entry option for this flight.

    Although many players were cautious in their approach prior to the break, there was a sharp uptick in the action in the lead up to the break that allowed a handful of players to run up their stacks and break free from the pack.

    Here are the five players who more than doubled their starting chips by the first break:
