Short Stack Action
A couple of our big stacks have just taken a hit as they've doubled up their short-stacked opponents.
Sam Trickett snap-called in the big blind when he found an ace against an under-the-gun player who moved all in for 34,300. Trickett showed but he was dominated against his opponent's and didn't improve on the board. He's back to 400,000.
Meanwhile Antonio Esfandiari went to war with against a short stack's . Esfandiari received no help on the board and slipped back to 155,000.
Two short stacks who were unable to survive elimination were Andrew Lichtenberger and Nikolay Evdakov who were both recently sent to the rail.
