Dominik Nitsche and Martin Jacobson have been eliminated while the fellow 888poker ambassadors Daria Feshchenko, Chris Moorman and Sofia Lovgren all remain in contention. Lovgren is among the big stacks along with Sonny Franco, others still in contention include Sonny Franco, Carl Shaw, Ignacio Molina and Sergio Alonso.
They are currently in level 19 at blinds of 6,000-12,000 with a big blind ante of 12,000. Only 21 remain out of 103 entries and the top 11 spots get paid. It seems very likely that the action will wrap up once the field is cut down to the final table of nine.
Jacobson wasted little time before jumping into the Main Event action .
