Busto McGusto

The following players look to have bitten the dust.

Mike Caro
Shannon Elizabeth
Jeff Shulman
Justin Bonomo

And just add to that count, Michael Binger who reraised all in with {2-Spades} {2-Hearts} but ran into {A-Diamonds} {A-Clubs} with the board coming {7-Hearts} {4-Spades} {7-Spades} {K-Spades} {J-Hearts}.

Tuan In Twouble

Tuan Le got in a raising war from the cutoff against a player in mid-position. It all went in preflop and Le's {10-Hearts} {10-Spades} couldn't fend off his opponent's {A-Diamonds} {J-Hearts} on a {J-Clubs} {A-Clubs} {8-Clubs} {8-Hearts} {2-Diamonds} board.

Lee has about 5,500 left.

Finn-ish Them!

Jani Sointula has just knocked out two players at once. It was an all-in preflop job with the Finn holding {Q-Spades} {Q-Clubs} against {A-Hearts} {K-Hearts} and a shorter stack's {A-Spades} {A-Clubs}. The board came {6-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds}.

So err, just the quads for Sointula who is now on 34,000.

Opponent Jus' Gets There

Justin Bonomo is down to just 6,000. He bet 4,500 on the turn of a {A-Hearts} {A-Spades} {8-Hearts} {K-Spades} board and was called by his opponent in the blinds. On the {9-Clubs} river his opponent led out for 8,000 and Bonomo made the call only to be shown {9-Spades} {9-Hearts} for a rivered full house.

Keating Dines Too Early

Alex Keating left at the last break to go for dinner thinking it was the full break and saw his 7,000 chip break go down to 2,000 during the meantime.

One of his tablemates asked, "Hopefully it was a good dinner break?"

Keating replied, "Well actually it wasn't!"

He'll be getting another hour and a half in about 40 minutes.
