Wiese on the Rise
Level 16
: 2,500/5,000, 0 ante
Jamie Pickering and James Wiese just got involved in a big hand that saw them putting their close-to-even stacks in the middle following a 
flop. That's when Pickering led for 30,000, Wiese raised all in for around 120,000, and after some thought Pickering called.
Pickering tabled 
for top pair, an open-ended straight draw, and a backdoor flush draw, while Wiese had 
for a wrap draw to a straight and a backdoor flush draw of his own. As it turned out, that latter backdoor flush draw of Wiese's proved meaningful as the turn was the 
and river the 
, giving Wiese a huge double and crippling Pickering to less than 20,000.
Shortly after that hand, Wiese eliminated a short-stacked Peter Charalambous to add still more chips to his stack.

Level 16
: 2,500/5,000, 0 ante
Matt Giannetti raised to 12,000 from late position, then David Ashby reraised all in for 30,500 from the button. It folded back to Giannetti who called, turning over 
to Ashby's 
.
Flop came 
, that case queen giving Giannetti a set. Ashby could still outdraw Giannetti, but the on the turn filled the latter up, making the river 
no matter and sending Ashby railward just a few spots shy of the cash.

Stout Out, Alaei on the Ascent
Level 16
: 2,500/5,000, 0 ante
A couple more bustouts to report, bringing them ever closer to the cash — Roman Yitzhaki and Matt Stout.
Following Yitzhaki's elimination on a neighboring table, a big hand developed between Stout and Daniel Alaei that saw the pair already having built a pot of about 30,000 when the 
flop hit. Alaei led for 23,000 and Stout called. The turn was the 
, at the sight of which Alaei bet 70,000. Stout then raised the pot, Alaei pushed all in, and Stout called with the 250,000 or so he had left.
Stout had for two different flush draws while Alaei held 
for top two pair. The river was the 
, and Stout hit the rail as Alaei catapulted up around the top of the counts.

Hand-for-Hand Begins

With just 46 players left, the six remaining tables are currently playing hand-for-hand until the next elimination occurs and the money bubble bursts.
Pickering Needs Help
Level 16
: 2,500/5,000, 0 ante
Jamie Pickering is undoubtedly the shortest player in the room with just 23,000 chips. On one of the first hands of hand-for-hand play, he called a raise and then folded on the flop. With just over four big blinds, Pickering will need to find a double soon or hope that two bigger stacks clash.
