Thomas Marchese Eliminated

Gary Pearce is alive after winning a coin-flip against early pace-setter Thomas Marchese. Pearce was all in for his tournament life with {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} verus {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}, but managed to spike a second lady on a {Q-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{7-Clubs} board to remain in tact, much to the delight of Linda Lee who had folded {J-Spades}{J-Clubs} face-up.

Marchese was left with just the odd chip after that, and a hand or two later he was gone.
