While he's over challenging for the chip lead in Event 60: $10,000 2-7 Draw Lowball (No-Limit) with 45 remaining, it appears Konstantin Puchkov has broken the all-time WSOP record for most cashes in a single series, as his stack over here in Event 57 remains intact. This makes his 11th cash this summer, breaking Nikolay Evdakov's previous standard of 10 set in 2008.
Puchkov actually hasn't returned since the last break, but had plenty to pay the blinds and antes and make it to the money.
The bustouts are coming in rapid fashion now, with Mike Flanagan among those going out in the first couple of hands following the bubble's bursting.
Flanagan appeared to be the last player participating in the Onnit Labs Last Sticker Standing Contest. We'll let the Onnit folks make sure, but if he indeed was he's picked up an extra $1,000 to go along with the $1,830 he's earning for his finish here.
During hand-for-hand play, Humberto Brenes came over to the media tower to chat briefly with WSOP Media Director Nolan Dalla. Among the topics they discussed was Brenes' career total for cashes. Today marks his fifth cash of the summer, and 67th overall, good enough to put him in the top five on the all-time list.
Just now Brenes open-shoved his short stack all in from the button and did his best to encourage the players in the blinds to call. Both folded, however. "Ohhh noooo....." said Brenes, turning over his as he scooped the chips.
A player in middle position opened for 2,100 and action folded around to Leo Margets in the hijack, who pushed all in for her last 12,200. It was folded back around to the original raiser, who fell into the tank. After some deliberation, he made the call to put Margets at risk.

Margets was in trouble, however an ace came right in the window on the flop. The turn and river kept her in the lead and she doubled through.
A player opened from middle position and action folded around to the player in the small bind, who pushed all in from the small bind. Behind him in the big blind, Humberto Brenes pushed all in himself for more. The original raiser folded and hands were revealed.
