Despite the bigger buy-in and nice money available, Event 10 speed along and hit the money less than 15 minutes after they returned from dinner break.

And most of that was thanks to Mansoor Kader.

He ran over his table, knocked another player out as they were ready to pause the clock for the money bubble, and just like that the 16 remaining players were in the money. Kader did the heavy lifting and jumped into the lead with 530,000.

Tournament staff paused the clock for a different reason; this time to redraw the last two tables instead of the money bubble.

They are wasting no time in Event 10. It seems like no sooner did they break a table when they reached 32 than it was happening again when they reached 24 less than a level later. Table 22 seems especially tough with a conveyor built of eliminations.

They have about 45 minutes remaining before the dinner break, so another race is on.
