Sabyl Cohen was sent home early via back-to-back second-best hands.

The hand that took most of her chips came in a classic match-up of A-K vs pocket deuces. Sabyl hit a king on the flop, but her opponent spiked a third deuce on the river.

She moved all-in on the next hand with 9-10 and was called by A-10 and sent to the rail.

Hard-Luck Tony

[user22113]

Tony Rivera has bounced around the event today like a steel ball inside a pinball machine, only the bumpers are all big name professional poker players.

Of the four tables that have broken today, he's been at two of them. After the first break, he was sent to a table with Howard Lederer and David Benyamine. Shortly thereafter, he was moved into the big blind to the right of Marcel Luske.

Marcel claims Tony was put there because Marcel asked the tournament director for some fish when the seat opened up.
