Riess Loses Some Ground, Big Names Bust
Level 8
: 300/600, 0 ante
We have lost a handful of top poker talent here in Event #12, most of whom bought in late and were short stacked from the word "go".
Sebastian Saffari, Erick Lindgren, Scott Seiver all bought in late and are now out of contention for this event's bracelet, while Olivier Busquet and Will Failla both busted recently.
Failla was all-in with 
on an eight high flop, but was drawing dead on the turn when the club flush came in.
