Polk Gone

Level 9 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Doug Polk has been eliminated after reentering on Day 2. He was eliminated when his last 30,500 went in with the {A-Spades}{10-Spades} against the {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs} for Isaac Haxton.

The flop was the {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{4-Spades} to give Haxton a full house. Despite the {9-Clubs} giving Polk some outs on the turn, the {K-Diamonds} completed the board on the river to send him packing.

Rossiter Doubles; Rast Eliminated

Level 9 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Jeff Rossiter was all in for 95,500 with the {A-Hearts}{6-Spades} against the {8-Hearts}{8-Spades} for Brian Rast. The flop, turn, and river ran out {J-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{3-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}, and Rast was knocked back to 30,000 in chips.

Then, Rast was all in against Steve O'Dwyer with the {A-Spades}{7-Diamonds} versus the {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}. The {Q-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} board kept O'Dwyer's tens in front, and he won the pot to bust Rast.

This marked the fourth time Rast has busted from this tournament.
