Laurent Azout moved all in for 26,000 from early position and was looked up by Brian Kim in late position.
Laurent Azout: A♣3♣ 
Brian Kim: A♠4♠
Azout was not in great shape and could be heard asking for a chop as the dealer fanned the 5♥Q♣8♦ flop. The Q♥ turn did seem to grant Azout's wish but the 4♥ river paired up Kim to send Azout out of the tournament a few spots shy of the money.
Richard Dixon had opened from under the gun and Patrick Clarke called from the button.
On the 10♦7♥2♣ flop, Dixon fired 24,000, and Clarke called.
The Q♣ turn was checked through to the 9♦ river. Dixon min-bet for 8,000, and Clarke let it go.
Toby Joyce raised to 16,000 and Tyler Hatchel in the cutoff then three-bet to 49,000. Bin Weng in the big blind asked for the stack size of both players and then four-bet to 146,000. Joyce went out of the way and Hatchel came to the same conclusion.
Jack Effel has just announced shuffle up and deal after giving the players the gameplan and some words of advice. The tension in the air can already be felt as play begins 12 players away from the money.
