    Roulier Rolls Out

    A clinical affair: Chris Roulier shoved with {Q-Spades} {J-Clubs} and small blind Glen McCaffrey called with {A-Spades} {Q-Diamonds}. No help for Roulier from the raggy board, and out he goes.

    Greco Doubles Through Hamrick, Swears Loudly

    Michael Greco raised to 50,000 in early position and small blind Dean Hamrick reraised. "Ok," said Greco, "I'm all in. I've got aces. If it's a call, it's a call." It was a call, and it wasn't aces.

    Greco: {A-Spades} {K-Hearts}
    Hamrick: {Q-Clubs} {Q-Spades}

    "Don't worry," sighed Hamrick, "I can't win with this hand."

    Board: {A-Hearts} {J-Clubs} {5-Spades} {2-Hearts} {6-Clubs}

    "YES!" cried Greco. "Man, I NEVER win f***ing races," -- this in the face of all the evidence. Once again the dealer upbraided him for swearing. Naughty.

    Greco: 600,000
    Hamrick: 510,000

    Jaffray Finds Some Ladies

    Alan Jaffray, a gentle smile continually gracing his lips, open-shoved from the hijack but got nothing more than the blinds. He calmly showed the table {Q-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}.

    27th and 26th Eliminated

    David Goldklang has just been eliminated by Gualter Santos. He got it in good holding {J-Hearts} {J-Clubs} to Santos' {A-Hearts} {5-Clubs}. Whil the board was being revealed he was shouting, "No ace, no ace." Bad luck for him though as the {A-Diamonds} fell at last to bust him very late in the day.

    Ryan Barwacz followed him soon after in 26th spot

    Dead Wood

    Ernst Hermans raised from UTG before Mihai Manole three-bet from the next seat and Bill Wood called all in from one more seat along. Hermans moved out of the way but seemed very interested that Manole tabled {A-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds}. Wood was in good shape with {8-Clubs} {8-Spades} until the board came {3-Spades} {10-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {6-Hearts} {A-Spades}. Woods out in 28th spot.

    Greco Doubles Up, Loudly

    A double up for British ex-soap star turned poker pro Michael Greco. Pretty short, he shoved under the gun with {7-Hearts} {7-Clubs} and got looked up by David Lerman in the small blind holding {A-Hearts} {Q-Hearts}.

    Board: {10-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {8-Hearts} {6-Spades} {3-Clubs}

    Bellowed a by now rather tipsy Greco, "Come on baby, my sevens are BEAUTIFUL! I love sevens, they are the f***ing NUTS!" He continued for a while, but eventually the dealer upbraided him for swearing. He apologized.
