Carter Gill
Yet again, Carter Gill opened a pot for 10,000. This time, it wasn't Quinn Do who reraised him. It was Kuok Wai Will Cheong, who reraised all in to 47,500, and Kevin MacPhee, who reraised all in over Cheong to 210,000.
After MacPhee raised, Gill stood up from the table and let fly a string of expletives. "Look!" he said, showing in his hand. "I'm not raising light!" He continued on a tirade for about a minute, saying that he hoped MacPhee didn't have ace-queen or tens, then angrily threw his cards into the muck and slammed his chair down on the floor.
With Gill out of the way, Cheong and MacPhee opened their hands: for Cheong and for MacPhee. Cheong was the winner by making a pair of eights on a board of . Gill seemed pleased that he didn't commit the chips and lose the hand, but went for a walk around the tournament area after the pot had been pushed to Cheong in order to try to regain some composure.

It's been a trying afternoon for Carter Gill. He opened yet another pot, this time to 20,000 from the button, only to have Kuok Wai Will Cheong move all in for 108,000 from the big blind. Gill made the call with and was racing against Cheong's .
Gill was pumped to hit a set on the flop, whooping and hollering. He called out, "No ten!" as the dealer burned and turned the turn card, but it was the . Even louder, he implored the dealer, "No jack!" No such luck for Gill -- the river was the to make a queen-high straight for Cheong.
Cheong now improbably finds himself with 222,000 chips, while Gill has slipped to 90,000 and continues to steam. On the three hands immediately after this hand, Gill has looked at one card and then mucked before the dealer has even completed the deal.

Quinn Do - 25th Place
Quinn Do was the shortest of all the stack entering play today. He survived through 13 eliminations, earning some extra cash for his ninja-like survival ability, but he has been eliminated.
He opened the pot for 15,000. Mudasser Khan, on the button, reraised to 63,000, enough to put Do all in. Do made the call with and found himself up against Khan's pocket sevens. There was no love for either player on a ten-high board. Khan has chipped up to 160,000 at the expense of Do, who has been eliminated from the tournament.

Keith Wintermans - 24th Place
On a board of Keith Wintermans fired out a bet of 115,000 and Diwei Huang moved all in, covering Wintermans who made the call for his tournament life.
