Floor staff has been called to several tables once the action after the dinner break resumed as several short stacks have been stalling. In the meanwhile, the field was cut down to the last 248 players as another three hopefuls came up short with their bid to reach the money.
The camera crews rushed over to table three to film an all-in showdown in which Hossein Ensan was all-in before the flop for 49,000, getting looked up by Luigi D'Alterio from the very next seat with the far bigger stack.
Hossein Ensan: 
Luigi D'Alterio: 
The EPT and WSOP Main Event champion was in trouble and had a mountain to climb on the 
flop. It was all over with the 
turn and the 
river ended Ensan's run just shy of the money.
Sacha Zaffran returned from the dinner break with a shorter stack and was involved in a heads-up pot to the 
flop on which he checked. Bernard Vu bet 50,000 and Zaffran tanked for an extended period, after which the clock was called on him.
No call followed and Vu claimed the pot.

Just before the end of the level, Sabishchenko had knocked out Michail Karapanos when his made trips fives on the 
board and Karapanos was unable to get away from
