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.

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.

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}.

Hou the Man

Jesper Hougaard has knocked out a player. We didn't see the action, just the board of {K-Spades} {2-Spades} {6-Clubs} {8-Hearts} {3-Hearts} that the Dane's {K-Clubs} {8-Clubs} had connected with a lot more kindly than his opponent's hand, which had already been mucked.
