The final nine players will now move to The Mothership, otherwise known as the main final table in the Amazon room.
Right after the break David Benyamine lost back-to-back pots and that sent him to the rail. First it was Richard Sklar who made a huge hand with the board showing . On the river Sklar bet and Benyamine called after which our new chip leader slammed onto the felt.
Benyamine shook his head and mucked, and on the very next hand it was Randy Ohel who raised from his right. Benyamine three-bet and the action folded back to Ohel. Ohel tanked for a bit before putting in another raise and Benyamine called all in.

John Cernuto had the bring in and Nick Kost, on his direct left, raised it up. The action folded back to Cernuto who tanked for a bit before raising all in for just a few thousand more chips.

Kost made a full house and Cernuto's rivered flush was not enough to stay alive. We're now down to 11 players.
After a series of bets, the short-stacked Tommy Hang found himself all in on sixth street against Lee Goldman. Goldman instantly flipped over his seventh street card - a - giving him a ten-nine low. Hang slowly squeezed his final card out.
"Oh god," said Hang. "It's a two-sided club. Either four or five of clubs. I'm fifty-fifty."
Hang took a breath, picked up his card, and slapped it on the table.
It was a the , giving him three fours. Hang was eliminated in 13th place and Goldman picked up a pot that brings him up to 825,000 in chips.
Nick Schulman had been short since the start of the day and his run just ended in 14th place. Schulman ended up all in for his final chips against Bruno Fitoussi and we caught the following cards:
Schulman:
Fitoussi:
The board showed us and while Schulman had flopped top pair, it was Fitoussi's rivered set that took down the pot.
Calvin Anderson raised from the small blind and Justin Bonomo called from the big. On the flop, Anderson bet and Bonomo raised after Anderson put his opponent all in for just a few extra chips.
Bonomo:
Anderson:
The board ran out , and Bonomo was knocked out in 15th place.
At the exact moment when Sergey Altbregin was knocked out we also lost French top pro Bertrand Grospellier. Randy Ohel, the current chip leader, was kind enough to explain to us what happened.
Ohel ended up scooping a big three-way pot against both Grospellier and Christopher Wallace, as the chip leader managed to make two pair, kings and queens. Grospellier mucked on seventh street and hit the rail in 16th place.
Sergey Altbregin was all in on third street against Calvin Anderson. The two revealed their starting hands and Altbregin quietly awaited his fate.
