The Chad-MeisterAnd That's a Wrap
Folks, we are done for the night.
136 runners evaporated into just 14, with Chad Brown currently in the lead and looking in excellent shape to make his second final table this Series and have himself another shot at a bracelet.
We were meant to reconvene at 1pm, but the players have begged a 2pm restart -- something about Matt Savage having to play golf in the morning...
Either way, join us at 2pm when we'll be in the Amazon Room, ready to play down to just one glorious winner. -

Kohler Comes Back for More
Jared Davis made a recovery up to 60,000, but now he's been absolutely crippled down to 4,500 by, once again, William Kohler. Full house over full house. Ouch.

Kohler May or May Not Have Quads
Matt Savage, William Kohler and Jared Davis all made it to fifth street, and Savage bet. Kohler raised and Kohler called, a pair of fives showing; Savage tanked for a while but then folded.
Kohler was dealt another five on sixth street. "Ohhh, now I have quads," he announced, and bet. Shaking his head, Davis folded, leaving himself on just 30,000.
Savage:
-- fold
Kohler: 
Davis:

Derek Raymond Busto in 16th Place ($5,864)
Indeed, no more bracelets this week for young Derek Raymond, as he's bust in a very respectable 16th place.
We missed the action, alas, but Jose Paz and David Halpern chopped the pot and sent Mr. Raymond to the rail. -

Martin Ohde Eliminated in 17th Place ($4,487)
It's all Ohde for Martin Ohde -- a raising war saw the betting capped on third and Ohde all in on fourth street. Mike Krescanko and Christian Toboc were both in, but Krescanko eventually passed to continued betting from Toboc, and they were heads up to showdown.
Ohde: (

Toboc:

"Two pair," said Ohde half-heartedly, and made his exit. -
