Recent Eliminations

After a brief lull, there's been another spate of eliminations.

Martin Stewart is out after flopping a gutshot Broadway draw, moving all in and running into Rober Karian's top set. Karian wound up making a full house by the river to send Stewart to the rail and increase his stack to 180,000.

Chong Wing Cheong ended Kai Paulsen's APT Macau Main Event by limping in with pocket eights, then calling when Paulsen shoved for 50,000 from the small blind with {J-Spades} {8-Hearts}. The board came {2-Clubs} {5-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} {2-Hearts} {9-Clubs}, making Cheong's eights the best hand. He now has 140,000.

Yvo Molin was also recently eliminated. He was all in preflop with {A-Hearts} {6-Spades} and was called by Moritz Schmejkal and his pocket tens. Schmejkal wound up making a ten-high straight and now has about 90,000 in chips.

Stewart, Paulsen and Molin each collected $11,250 at the payout table.
