On the third hand of hand-for-hand there was an all-in and call between early position players Naafay Nadim and Vachel Wu.
Nadim had open-jammed from UTG+1 for 103,000 effective and Wu flat-called behind. All other action folded out.
Nadim: 8♠8♦ (all-in)
Wu: T♠T♣
Board: A♣Q♦2♣K♥6♣
Jess Richards was calling the action for the rest of the field from a table over. "It's eights versus tens with eights at risk," she said.
Richards called the runout perfectly as Nadim went unimproved and Richards announced that the players were now in the money. Notably, Richards managed to reach the money off one entry.
The remaining 49 players now have $630 locked up on their $400 buy-in. Players will play down to a winner tonight with $27,330 up top!
Players are approaching their next ten-minute break with Wu as the current chip leader sitting just north of 1,000,000.
