Raul Hernandez raised UTG+1 to 150,000, Tim Capretta moved all in from the small blind for 560,000, and Jim Collopy reraised big from the big blind.

Hernandez quickly folded, and Capretta showed 6h6c. But Collopy turned over 8h8d, and Capretta needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came Kc5c3d9h6s, and Capretta spiked a six on the river to win the pot with a set of sixes and double up in chips.

Tim Capretta  –  1,330,000  (22 bb)
Jim Collopy  –  4,030,000  (67 bb)

With 17 players remaining from a field of 1,110, the average chip stack is around 2,610,000 (44 big blinds). The remaining players are guaranteed at least $44,685 each.

Action will continue today until there are seven players remaining for tomorrow afternoon’s live-streamed final table, scheduled to begin at 1:00 pm.
