Juanda's Aces are Good

Heads-up against Doyle Brunson, John Juanda bet every street but the river, showing {10-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}. Both players checked the river and Juanda's aces were good enough to take down the pot.

Juanda now has 5,800 chips.

Layne Flack Eliminated

Just before the break, Layne was eliminated on a hand of Razz, when his opponent's 9-8 low bested Layne's 10-6 low.

On his way out of the tournament area, Layne said, "well, now I gotta go borrow 5K." Davidson Matthew replied, "Well, I'm next. I got a donkey to the right and left of me." The player to his right is the one who busted Layne, and the player to his left is Josh Arieh.

As far as we know, Layne was the first player eliminated from the event.

All Quiet on the Home Front

It's relatively quiet in the Amazon Room today (with the exception of table 55, where Layne Flack is sitting).

The 10,000-chip starting stacks explain the minor fluctuations in chip stacks thus far. After the dinner break, the pots will start getting much bigger.

Table 37 Is Loaded

Earlier we reported on some minor tomfoolery going on at table 37, involving Doyle Brunson, Chris Ferguson, and a fart machine.

The real story from that table is the compilation of talent gathered there. Bill Edler, who has enjoyed immense success on the tournament circuit this year, has now taken a seat to the right of Ferguson.

John Juanda, Doyle, Jesus, and Bill have combined for an estimated $19 million dollars in prize money in tournaments alone.
