O'Brien Eliminated

As we wandered past Kirsty Chick and Wooka Kim's table, we saw Lana O'Brien chatting to Heath "TassieDevil" Chick and Dave "F-Train" Behr. As she recalled to us, she got the last of her money into the middle with {A-}{8-} before the flop, but ran into an opponent's {A-}{K-}.

While O'Brien may be on the other side of the rail now, the same cannot be said for France's Celine Bastian, who is sharing space with Chick and Kim. Bastian's now up to more than 25,000 in chips and we should also remind you, last year's winner, Vanessa Hellebuyck, was also French.

Could this be the year that the tricolor rises again?
