Robel Andemichael raised UTG+1 to 135,000, Carlos Dorca called from the cutoff, and Ronnie Bardah reraised from the small blind to 565,000.

Andemichael used one of his Time Chips to tank for a while before he four-bet it to 1,325,000. Dorca and Bardah both folded, and Andemichael took the pot — and the chip lead.

Robel Andemichael  –  7,350,000  (123 bb)
Ronnie Bardah  –  6,600,000  (110 bb)


With 14 players remaining, the average chip stack is about 4.49 million (75 big blinds), and they are guaranteed to earn at least $50,510 each.

Action is scheduled to continue tonight until the end of Level 29, around 1:00 am.
