Wow, it seems as though Karina Jett had some poker juice with her dinner - right now, she seems unstoppable.
Most recently we saw her complete and then call a raise from David Levi. Levi check-called all the way down to seventh street, when Jett revealed an ace-high flush. Levi couldn't beat it and Jett scooped the whole lot.
On around 820,000, Jett is now our chip leader. Levi dropped to 280,000, to the consternation of the Israeli element at the rail who, we suspect, think that no-one else can understand what they are saying.
Just a few hands in, Allen Bari became the first casualty of the final when he felt the wrath of Karina Jett. After Bari had completed, Jett raised it up and Bari called. Bari called a bet on fourth, but then led on fifth, before calling the final two streets.
On seventh, he had just 15,000 left, but deduced that he was too far in to fold. "You go it," he sighed as the hands were revealed.
David Warga brought in with the and Karina Jett completed. David Levi called, and once Warga folded they were heads up to fourth street.
Jett bet out on every subsequent street and Levi called her all the way down before both checked on seventh. Jett tabled nothing but the pair of kings, and Levi mucked.
Seat 1: David Warga - 308,000
Seat 2: Christopher George - 385,000
Seat 3: Chris Tryba - 291,000
Seat 4: Maxwell Troy - 538,000
Seat 5: Allen Bari - 127,000
Seat 6: Karina Jett - 428,000
Seat 7: Jonathan Bascom - 174,000
Seat 8: David Levi - 564,000

With the field reduced to eight, the chips have all been moved over to the feature table and the players have been sent on a one hour dinner break. When they return they'll be playing out the last seven minutes of this level before the limits go up.
After Wahlbeck moved all in on an early street, Levi kept firing, forcing Troy out of the pot and leading to a showdown with the short stack.
However, despite being what the table crowned the "best peeler at the table", it wasn't to be for Wahlbeck as Levi's full house was enough to scoop the pot.
Players have now relocated to the far corner of the room and will commence the 60 minute dinner break before returning for the final.
