Arkadiy Tsinis got it in with the 6♣6♦ only to find himself up against Nicolas Santos with the 10♦10♠.
The J♠8♣5♥J♥4♠ board brought no help to the dominated pair.

The World Series of Poker (WSOP) Paradise $5,300 Main Event kicked off on Saturday at Atlantis Paradise Island in the Bahamas, and officials took the opportunity to reveal to players what they’ll receive it they’re fortunate enough to finish as the last player standing.
In addition to a seven-figure payday, the winner will receive a new WSOP Paradise Main Event bracelet that is hand-crafted by Jostens and features an island spin on the classic WSOP Main Event bracelet. Custom made from 10-karat yellow gold, just like the summer’s trophy, the WSOP Paradise Main Event bracelet weighs nearly 95 grams and is hand-set with 494 genuine blue topaz round stones.
“The WSOP Main Event bracelet is considered the richest trophy in sports, and our first Main Event bracelet for WSOP Paradise puts a fun spin on the trophy’s legacy,” said WSOP Vice President Gregory Chochon. “This is the World Series of Poker, we’re global and need a proper World Championship trophy to represent the newest home we’ve added to the series. Jostens delivered on that vision once again, and we can’t wait to see who takes home the first-ever WSOP Paradise Main Event bracelet.”
The action after the break slowed down and no all-in showdown has taken place yet.
Ben Yu needed to fire a second barrel against Ryan Riess to chip up but did so successfully on the K♣Q♦3♥5♠ turn for 70,000 to win the pot uncontested.

Chino Rheem and Masashi Oya checked to the Q♦8♣6♣J♥Q♣ river on which Oya vaulted out of his chair and jokingly counted every single chip.
"I bet pot, eighty five," he then declared. Rheem called and mucked to the Q♠J♠ of Oya.

Level eight comes to an end with 31 players out of the 96 contenders still in the mix. The T-1,000 chips are raced off during the second 15-minute break. After the next two-hour session, the field will be on a dinner break.
Artur Martirosian shoved 158,000 and Oktay Koeysu said "call" from the small blind — though he was not paying attention. The tournament director ruled that the verbal action was binding and he was forced to commit 158,000. The big blind folded and the cards were turned up.
Artur Martirosian: 5♦5♠
Oktay Koeysu: 6♥3♥
The board ran out 4♥K♦Q♣8♥9♠ and Martirosian held on with fives to secure the double.
