The river card was the 7♦, giving Cunningham his fifth WSOP bracelet and $487,287.

Consolation: $197,348 for third - Plus, he gets to keep his shark.

The players are now on a 90-minute dinner break and will come back heads up.

Cunningham has around $300,000 more than Jeff Lisandro with around $4 million in play. You do the math, PokerListings.com is getting stoked to watch some serious poker as we're going to have a big name bracelet winner for the first time at the 2007 WSOP!

Jeff Lisandro busted not one, but two players out of the final table when his Q♠ Q♦ held up against Joe Patrick's 7♦ 7♥ and Jason Lester's A♦ K♠.

The money got in pre flop and a board of J♣ J♥ 9♥ 6♠ 6♦ was enough to keep the ladies in front.

Shortstacked, Patrick will go home fifth and pick up $99,142. Lester takes fourth and $132,813.

Now three handed, Jeff Lisandro has a slight lead on Allen Cunningham and Humberto Brenes is the short stack.

Montreal native Jason Lester staved off elimination doubling through Joe Patrick when his A♥ J♥ rivered a pair of Jacks.

Patrick made it $435,000 total on the button pre flop and Lester called all-in with his remaining $290,000.

Patrick held the lead with a pair of nines, but he couldn't keep it on the final board reading 10♠ 5♦ 2♣ 2♦ J♠.

Looks like Joe is inching closer to the rail with only around $280,000 left. Allen Cunningham has vaulted into the lead sitting on $1.6 million.

After Allen Cunningham bet out $100,000 on a flop of K♦ 4♥ A♥, Travis Rice pushed his remaining $385,000 in the pot.

Cunningham called in a heartbeat, flipping over the A♠ J♠. Rice's K♠ 7♠ got no help from the Q♦ turn or the 9♣ river and he's headed to the rail.

It'll be a soft landing though, with $78,565 to soften the blow.

Five left and the huge pot just about ties Cunningham with Jeff Lisandro for the chip lead at around $1.2 million each.

Gavin Griffin is gone and he'll take his pink mowhawk (worn to raise awareness for Breast Cancer) with him.

After Jeff Lisandro limped UTG, Griffin made it $120,000 from the small blind. It folded around to Lisandro and he called.

On a flop of Q♠ 9♦ 2♦ Griffin pushed all in and was instacalled by Lisandro with K♦ J♦. Grifin flipped over the A♦ 10♠ but the J♠ put him behind on the turn and the 8♦ ended his day giving Lisandro the flush.

He'll cash $58,924 for seventh.

Alan Jaffray is the first player gone. Jaffray folded for about an hour before picking up A-J on the button. He raised, but Gavin Griffin came over the top in the BB forcing Jaffray to put all his chips in the middle to call.

He did, Gavin showed K-K and when the board came up blanks Jaffray's day was done. Too bad - that hat was really nice. He'll cash $31,800 for ninth.

That's a lot of pretty hats Alan - enjoy!
