3.55pm: Alec Torelli, PokerStars qualifier from the United States, is eliminated in fifth place, earning $57,909
This is what happens when no player ever believes any of their opponents has a hand. From the cut-off seat, Alec Torelli makes a standard pre-flop raise of 45,000. From the big blind, Max Steinberg bumps it up to 150,000. Alec doesn't stand for it and shoves all in for 710,000 and Max insta-calls. Steinberg shows aces and Alec's pocket threes don't get any help from the board. Traheho is out of here.
Max has moved into the chip lead with more than 1.5million. Valdemar is in second spot, with Alexander and Steven the shorter stacks.
