Jeff Cohan Out

Jeff was all in preflop with {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}, and was called by Tom Hancock who had {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts}.
The flop came {K-Clubs}{4-Spades}{10-Hearts}, the turn was {2-Clubs} and the board paired {10-Spades} to give Tom the pot.
Jeff was just happy to make the money as he had only 300 left with 88 players remaining.

Bubble Has Burst!

We have reached the money after more than an hour of hand-for-hand play.

Derek Smith and Roxci Rhodes busted out on the same hand on different tables, so both will come equal at 63rd and will split the prize money.

Derek was busted holding 8-9 against the blind who held 6-2 and hit a six.

Roxci had Q-Q and ran into A-A.

Shaun Tobin Survives

Moving all in with his small stack of 1300 with {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}, Shaun received some protection when Hugo Marquez reraised to 3800 with {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}.
Everyone else got out of the way and they ran out a board:
{9-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{J-Hearts}

After the players emitted a collective groan as the short stack doubled up. Shaun remarked, "Thanks guys, thanks for the support, I know you are all cheering for me," which lightened the tension a little.
