It was a tough level for Thai Ha but he doubled his back to a slight lead just before the next break.

David Shaw raised to 1,100,000 before Ha moved all-in for 12,300,000 and Shaw called with AhKd. Ha was ahead with 6c6s and stayed that way on the Tc3c2s flop. The 5c gave Shaw no help though he called for a Four, a card that was not good for him, and the blank 2s sent a big pot to Ha.

The hand gave Ha a temporary lead that Singh took over when he won another 2 million off Shaw on the last hand before the break.

Update counts on break:

Seat 1: Thai Ha – 24,650,000 (62 bb)
Seat 3: Raminder Singh – 27,375,000 (68 bb)
Seat 8: David Shaw – 5,050,000 (13 bb)
