Ronald Keijzer limped on the button, with Stephen Nahm calling in the small blind and Amir Mirrasouli checking his big blind option.

Nahm checked the Q♣9♠J♥ flop before Mirrasouli fired 260,000. Keijzer made the call while Nahm got out of the way. Mirrasouli checked the 6♠ turn and folded when Keijzer bet 700,000 to take down the pot.

On a board reading A♣7♦10♥3♣4♥, Amir Mirrasouli bet a cool 2,000,000 and put Kevin Rand at a tough decision, as he went deep in the tank, hoping to get a read on Mirrasouli. Ultimately, he folded and the dealer pushed the pot to Mirrasouli.

Just a few hands later Stephen Nahm raised to 160,000 but was soon faced with a raise to 400,000 from Mirrasouli. Nahm didn't waste time calling when it folded back to him.

The dealer put up a flop of 3♣5♦6♦ and both players checked. Nahm checked on the 4♥ and this time Mirrasouli bet 700,000. This time Nahm did think a moment before making the call. The river brought a 7x and both players checked. Mirrasouli opened his hand to show A♥10♥8♦Xx for ace high and Nahm showed a hand that made the six high straight, awarding him the pot.

In other news, Nahm said he has informed service to bring him a fresh beer every 18 minutes. He's currently on his third.

Zachary Peay opened to 320,000 from early position before Dan Matsuzuki raised the pot to around 1,200,000. Jonathan England shipped in his short stack of 620,000 from the big blind and Peay called, leaving the hand three-way to the flop.

Peay checked the 4♣8♥5♦ flop and called once Matsuzuki continued for 850,000. Another check followed the 3♠ turn, but this time Peay got out of the way when Matsuzuki announced a pot-size bet. England was then heads-up for his tournament life.

Jonathan England: A♥K♥7♠5♥
Dan Matsuzuki: A♣A♦10♦2♠

Matsuzuki was ahead the whole way and improved to a wheel on the turn. The K♠ river changed nothing, as England wished his opponents good luck on his way to the payout table in eighth place.

When you hold the record for the most World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelets, there are perks.

For Phil Hellmuth, whose 16 bracelets (and counting) may never be touched, one of those perks is his own personal break room at Horseshoe Las Vegas. That's a nice benefit especially on 90-minute dinner breaks.

Hellmuth granted PokerNews access to his small but intimate break room, which is in an undisclosed location.

Amir Mirrasouli has quietly been stacking chips, having won a few pots before showdown, including a hand where he flopped quad kings but was unable to get much value.

Six ways to a flop for the second time this final table, the board spread 3♣8♦9♥.

With two checks in front of him, Mirrasouli bet approximately 900,000 and when the table folded he flashed the 9♣9♦ and happily stacked the pot.

Chips are on the move and it remains anyone's game with eight players left.

Dan Matsuzuki raised three straight hands from early positions but took down just one of them.

Matsuzuki opened the first hand to 240,000 but folded once Ronald Keijzer announced pot to his left.

Matsuzuki then opened to 280,000 and found a call from Stephen Nahm, taking the hand down after the 8♠J♥9♥ flop.

Matsuzuki raised the next hand from under the gun and found himself in a four-way pot, with Amir Mirrasouli betting 500,000 on the 6♥4♠10♣ flop to take it down.
