Fast and Furious
One might expect tighter play from today's field. However, that is not the case. Tables have been breaking at a fast pace and we aren't far off from 324, the amount that will make the money.
Johnston and Spadavecchia at the Same Table
John Spadavecchia limped from early position as did Jim Stephens. Robert Irby then moved all in from the small blind for around 26,000.
Berry Johnston folded his big blind and it was back to Spadavecchia, who asked for a count and then went into the tank. Spadavecchia opted to muck and so did Stephens. Irby increased his stack a few thousand, but will have his work cut out for him with both Johnston and Spadavecchia at his table.

Hand for Hand
Players are close to the money; as such, tournament staff have announced we are now in hand for hand play. Depending on the willingness to gamble from the Seniors, this could take awhile.
Three Out On Bubble
Roger Keely, John Fitzmaurice, and a third gentleman were eliminated on the bubble and will each receive about $1,262 for their efforts.
As for the rest of the field, they're in the money!
Will the Real Old Timer Please Stand Up
The tournament director just took a poll of the remaining players in an attempt to determine the oldest remaining player.
First, he asked everyone to stand up. From there he instructed anyone under the age of 60 to sit down, and so on and so forth. In the end, it was determined that three 80 year-old players remained: Harry Tomishima, Russel Morley and Walter Callam.
Now it remains to be seen if any of these old timers can survive to take down the tournament.
