Wham, Bam...We Have A Final Table

We were down to 11 players and needed one more elimination to consolidate to one table. We never made it that far.

First, Todd Lundwall moved in with pocket sevens and was called by Ray Spencer with {A-Clubs}{9-Spades}. Spencer flopped an ace and Lundwall didn't catch a seven the rest of the way. He was eliminated in 11th place.

That hand wasn't even over yet when Duane Felix raised to 100K and Thomas Middelthon moved all in for his last 280,000. The players at that table didn't know that Lundwall had already been eliminated and suddenly a huge crowd gathered around as Felix decided whether to call. He eventually did and turned over {A-Spades}{J-Spades}, which trailed Middelthon's pocket queens.

There was a crowd three-deep around the table as the flop came {J-Hearts}{K-Spades}{5-Clubs}. A number of people called out, "Ace! Ace!"...and suddenly there was an explosion of cheers as the dealer laid the {A-Clubs} on the felt. We were one card away from setting our final table and that card, the {7-Clubs}, fell on the river. Middelthon was eliminated in 10th place, and we now have our final table set for tomorrow.

And here are the players who will fight for the bracelet, starting at 12 noon, PDT tomorrow:

Seat 1: Lewis Titterton 552,000
