When we arrived at Table 441, Allen Chang and Michael Saltzburg had both already drawn and Satlzburg was busy betting 30,000 into Chang. After a few moments, Chang moved all in for 99,100.
As soon as Saltzburg called, Chang said your good and got out of his chair. Saltzburg then showed and Chang was heading away from the table in 15th place.
Vanessa Selbst had Gabriel all in on 6th street and Nassif was drawing to a flush.

Nassif
Nassif got his last card and peeled it very slowly. He was happy to have found the to make his flush. Selbst would have preferred if had not taken his time.
Bryn Kenney got short stacked during the last level and doubled during the last hand. We caught up with the hand while the stacks were counted out on the river. Matthew Ashton had Kenney on the ropes.

Ashton:
The board ran and Kenney stayed alive with two pair.
Michael Saltzburg opened up the action with a raise from under the gun and Mike Wattel committed the remainder of his tiny stack on his direct left. Scott Clements then called out of the small blind and Chris Bjorin got out of the way in the big blind.
Saltzburg drew one, Wattel drew two and Clements drew three. Clements check-called a bet here and then drew two, while Saltzburg stood pat. Wattel drew two and Clements then folded when Saltzburg bet. The last draw saw Wattel draw one and Saltzburg stay pat again.
Saltzburg tabled , with his ninety-seven good enough to see Wattel's cards into the muck, flashing a jack-eight low as he did so.
Vincent van der Fluit and Matthew Ashton have just played a hand of pot-limit omaha that has seen their stacks even out. It started with Ashton raising the pot on the button. Van der Fluit called in the big blind and a flop was dealt. Both players checked here and the hit the turn. This time, Van der Fluit bet pot and after some thought, Ashton folded.
Despite winning this small hand, Van der Fluit is still one of the short stacks in the tournament.
We didn't manage to catch the action, but we can confirm that Vincent van der Fluit has been eliminated in 13th place. This is Van der Fluit's third World Series of Poker cash of 2012.
With that, we are down to just 12 players and are doing a table redraw. We will have the final two tables posted soon.
