From one minute to the other, the number of hopefuls is first reduced to 48 and then 47. Suddenly, this becomes 44 and another table breaks while the dealers are instructed to wait upon completion of their current hand.

One table over, Jin Quanx Shu leans on the felt as he is forced all-in from the big blind. Vincent Salaun bets the flop to isolate.
