Tadros Binks, Doubles

When we reached Table 277, the board read {5-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}, and Jesse Martin led out. Issa Tadros tried to move all in. He had more than two bets however, and was forced to pull some of his stack back. Martin put in another raise to get Tadros all in however, Tadros called, and the hands were opened.

Tadros: {k-Spades}{8-Spades}
Martin: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}

Tadros was in very bad shape, but the board ran {7-Diamonds}, {6-Diamonds} to give him a nine-high straight. Martin was not pleased with the outcome, but collected himself and told Tadros, "Nice hand."

Tadros was very giddy, stacking his new chips while sharing a short celebration with his friends on the rail.

Andrew Rosskamm is our first player to cash. We unfortunately missed the hand, but we saw him exiting the Amazon Room moments ago with his pay slip in hand.

Bubble Boy

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

Robert Thompson is our bubble boy after getting his last 3,100 in the middle against Rep Porter. Thompson's {9-}{8-} was drawing live against Porter's {k-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}, but did not connect with the {10-}{7-}{5-}{a-}{4-Clubs} board.

Thompson leaves empty handed, but the remaining 36 players are guaranteed $4,743 and a shot at the bracelet .
