David Pham bets out $340,000 from the button and Hafiz Khan makes the call in the big blind. The flop comes K Q 6 and both players check. The turn is the 7 and Khan bets out $420,000. Pham makes the call and the river is the 7, prompting a check from Khan and a $750,000 bet from the Dragon. Khan thinks for a spell and then makes the call, turning up K-Q to Khan's K-4 and taking down the pot.

Kris Kuykendall just took a big pot from David Pham after playing rags aggressively and apparently getting lucky on the river. It began with the action folding to Kris in the small blind who raised it up. Pham made the call from the big blind and the flop came down A 5 4. Kuykendall fired $400,000 which Pham called relatively quickly. They both checked down the 5 and T and Kris showed T 3 which was good.

Bertrand Grospellier raises to $325,000 from under the gun and Hafiz Khan, next to act, announces re-raise and makes it $1,025,000 to go. Kris Kuykendall and David Pham both quickly fold and Bertrand takes a moment before doing the same.

We've reached the end of the level and players have been set loose on a 30-minute break. Action will resume at roughly 2:30 p.m. EST.

A short-stacked Craig Hopkins moves all-in preflop and is called by David Pham, who turns up T T to Hopkins' K 8. The flop comes T 9 7, giving Pham the set and Hopkins the open-ended straight draw. The turn is the K and Hopkins pairs his king, although it's a little late for that. The river is the 2 and Hopkins misses his draw and is thus eliminated in fifth place, earning $450,000 for a tenacious spell at the final table.

David Pham has been taking some damage in the last few levels and just shipped another couple of chips over to Hafiz Khan. It started with Khan opening to $225,000 from the button and Pham calling from the small blind.

They both checked the flop of Q J 6 and Pham bet $365,000 when the 8 hit the turn. Khan made the call and the 4 hit the river. Both players checked and Khan showed A-Q for top pair, top kicker. Pham shows A 4 for the busted flush draw.
