This last hour has truly been the Darvin Moon show. Whether it's reckless abandon or calculated strategy, Moon is moving his chips around like it ain't no thang.

We've got a bunch of interesting hands for you below, plus the new counts. Enjoy.

Moon Chipping Up

To his credit Darvin Moon is still doing a good job of keeping the pressure on and he's reaping the benefits in the form of many small pots.

Moon opened to 2 million from the small blind and Eric Buchman defended in the big. The flop came down K Q 8 and Moon insta-bet 5 million.

Buchman wanted none of it and tossed his hand in the muck.

While Moon is picking up a lot of pots there's a good chance his opponents are just waiting to snap him off, since he seems to get very carried away when involved in a hand. It's up to the other players to make a hand against him but if they do, we should see some fireworks.

Moon Walks Over Buchman

Darvin Moon opened this hand to 2 million from under the gun and got a call from Eric Buchman on the button. The flop came down K Q 4 and Moon checked it.

Buchman fired 3 million and Moon had no trouble calling. The turn was the 9 and it went check-check to the T river.

Moon cut out chips and made it 5 million and Buchman mucked.

Joey Joe Joe Junior.

Cada Four-Bets

Joe Cada just took a nice pot from chip leader Antoine Saout without the inconvenience of a flop, four-betting preflop and forcing the Frenchman to muck.

Cada made it 2 million from the button and Saout re-popped to 6,275,000. Cada then made it 11 million straight and after a bit of thought Saout flicked his cards to the muck.

Moon's Signature Over-Shove

Darvin Moon seems to enjoy taking the post-flop play out of the equation, opting instead to just get in before the flop and let the cards fall where they may.

Just now the pot was opened to 2 million and Moon shoved for 40. Earlier he got himself into a bit of trouble when he did that with K-9 and ran into aces. We're predicting something similar is going to happen before the night is through.

Moon the All-In Machine

Darvin Moon is showing no fear at this table and, for the time being, is reaping the rewards. He opened from the button to 2 million and got a call from Joe Cada in the big blind. The flop came down Q 8 4 and they both checked.

The turn was the 2 and Cada fired 4.5 million. Moon announced all-in and after a quick count Cada mucked.

We're going to be completely honest with you folks, because that's just what we do here at PL.com.

The last hour of play has been tight to say the least. Very few hands saw a flop, so you can forget about turns or rivers.

It's 3 a.m. here in Las Vegas and it remains five handed with no real hope of any movement.

There's a lot of money on the line and these guys are certainly playing like it. 

Have no fear though. PL.com remains on the scene here at the Rio and will endeavor to pass all the pertinent information your way when it becomes available.

Until then, grab a cup of Java and settle in, it's been a long day and what promises to be an even longer night.

Just when it appeared no action was forthcoming (see above), like manna from heaven we just found something reportable.

After a 20-minute break Jeff Shulman got it all in with 7 7 against Antoine Saout's A 9.

The flop fell T 9 6 putting Shulman behind, but handing him a gutshot straight draw.

The turn brought the meaningless Q and after the 4 river, Shulman was out fifth cashing $1,953,395 and leaving just four players in the hunt for the 2009 Main Event title.
