Down to 27 Players

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

With the elimination of Andreas Uribe, the tournament is down to its last 27 players. They are currently redrawing around three tables. There will then be a short break before players return for the final hour of play.

Stay tuned for the full final three table redraw.

Griffin Malatino Knocks Two Players Out

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Kyle Muelrath raised to 29,000 from middle position, Griffin Malatino called on the button, and Kework Besiktasliyan and Phil Collins called in the blinds.

The flop came {6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}, and both Besiktasliyan and Collins checked. Muelrath shoved all in, Malatino also shoved, and Besiktasliyan also decided to go all in. Collins had the choice but decided to stay out of this pot.

Griffin Malatino: {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}
Kyle Muelrath: {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}
Kework Besiktasliyan: {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}

Malatino had flopped a set, Muelrath had a pair of eights, and Besiktasliyan had a flush draw.

The turn brought them the {10-Spades}, and the river gave them the {A-Spades} to complete the board and provide no change to the current situation. Malatino took the pot and eliminated two players in one hand.

Table Talk: Baby Names and Snake Names

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

"What about Richard?" Kelly Minkin asked Jason Mercier. With former NFL player Richard Seymour at the table, the topic was baby names for Mercier's unborn son. A few other players murmured their approval before Denny Crum chimed in.

"I don't have any kids," Crum said, "But I did get a new snake recently."

The remaining players laughed.

"I kept on coming up with snake puns for their names, but there were too many that I liked. There was a top three, and then what I named it," he continued.

"Tell us your top three, and I'll tell you my favourite," said Kelly Minkin.

"Well there was Dick van Strike  — I'm all in — Sir Hiss-a-lot, and the one I did go for, Justin Timbersnake," said Crum. His all in, which he announced partway through his serpentine monologue, was uncalled.

"Well, Justin Timbersnake is obviously the best!" replied Minkin.
