Here are some players' chip counts among the last two dozen tables in the Pavilion room as the field condenses into the Amazon room and looks to be inside just one room for the first time all tournament.
These players pocketed $15,000 for their respective efforts.
Maxime Chilaud raised to 17,000 and called a three-bet to 35,000 to see a flop of 
, on which he check-raised a bet of 60,000. His opponent called all in for around 200,000 and tabled 
, Chilaud tabled 
.
The 
turn gave Chilaud more outs and he got there with the 
river to see his opponent bang so hard on the table that the big stack of Abdulrahim Amer in the one seat fell over.
A player in early position raised to 18,000 and was called by Mario Hudson on his direct left. Action then folded around to Eddie Ochana in the cutoff who three-bet to 62,000. The original opener thought for close to two minutes before calling and Hudson took about 30 seconds before deciding to stick around.
The flop fell 
and action checked to Ochana, who continued for 102,000. The early position player went back into Hollywood mode and after a long pause moved all in for around 435,000. Hudson folded and Ochana called.
Eddie Ochana: 
All-In Player: 
Ochana had found his aces in trouble against his opponent's flopped set of jacks. The turn came and was of no help to Ochana. However, the river brought him justice as his hand became best again, improving to a set of aces.
The two had similar stacks and Ochana's was counted to be 467,000, a few big blinds more than his opponent who had found a two outer on the river send him to the payout line.
$15,000 payday for each of these finishers.
Scott Ball opened to 20,000 and called a shove from Maxwell Schrack for 61,000.

to get his stack back to 20 big blinds, giving Katz some much-needed breathing room.
