Maxwell Busts, Re-Enters; Uhlmann Re-Enters

Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante

Chris Maxwell was just eliminated after getting the last of his chips in preflop from middle position against Danny Gonzales, who was in the big blind.

Chris Maxwell: {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}
Danny Gonzales: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}

After just having doubled via an opponent hitting their two outer with an underpair, only to hit one himself to re-improve to the best hand, Maxwell saw his fortunes reversed. The flop came {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{6-Hearts} to give him a full house, sixes full of eights. However, the turn fell {8-Hearts} to give Gonzales eights full of kings, leaving Maxwell in need of hitting the case six in order to improve to quads.

The river fell {3-Clubs} and he was eliminated temporarly, getting up from his seat to head to the registration desk to re-enter.

While the hand was occurring, Samuel Uhlmann entered the tournament, taking a seat at what has been dubbed by tournament director, Dennis King as the "pit of death" due to the amount of eliminations that have occurred at the table recently.
