Big Stax 500 (Day 2): First Break Of The Day

Level 18 (Blinds 4,000/8,000/1,000)
Total Entries: 925
Players Remaining: 116

Players are about to head on their first break of the day (10 minutes), while the tournament floor removes the pink (500) chips from the tables.  Just before break Matt Glantz picked up a sizable pot from Matteo Menna, check calling a 90,000 bet (150,000 pot) on the turn of a board reading 10♦ 5♣ 9 5.  The action would follow check-check after the 8♠ on the river, and Glantz would quickly table 8 9 for the win, chipping up to 705,000.  One notable to leave the field late in Level 18 was Pierre Diessler.  Pierre took a beat early in the day to drop down to 25,000, and although he built back up to over 140,000, he couldn't continue the comeback.
