Medic Off to Early Dinner

With five minutes to go before the dinner break, Nenad Medic had only 3,475 chips left in his stack. 8,000 chips were up for grabs on a board of {6-Spades} {2-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} {4-Hearts} {Q-Spades}. Medic moved all in and was called by one of his two opponents. Timothy English then moved all in for 6,800. That raise was called also. English showed {2-Hearts} {2-Spades} -- he had flopped quad deuces! He took down the pot, increased his stack to 23,000, and sent Medic to the rail.

Shane Dye Rides Off

It's been hard luck all around for the Aussie sports greats today. Shane Dye flopped a big hand with {Q-Spades} {4-Spades}, making a pair and a flush draw on a flop of {K-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {6-Spades}. He got all of his chips in the middle, but he didn't have enough chips left to pressure his opponent into a fold. He called with {5-Spades} {5-Hearts}. Dye's monster draw never filled as the board came running threes, {3-Hearts} {3-Diamonds}. The champion jockey is out of this tournament.

Nam Le Departs

Nam Le Eliminated
Nam Le Eliminated
Nam Le was hit the rail after the chips started flying on a board of {3-Hearts}{8-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}. Le thought he held the goods with his pocket threes for a full house, however Greg Byard revealed {8-Clubs}{10-Spades} for a bigger full house on the turn.

Le is eliminated and Byard now sits with over 50,000 chips.

Juanda Eliminated

John Juanda was crippled after calling an all in bet on a flop of {8-Hearts}{7-Spades}{2-Clubs} against a short-stacked opponent.

Juanda held top pair with {8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} but his opponent showed {8-Spades}{9-Clubs} for a better kicker. The turn was a repeat {7-Diamonds} but the river bricked the {3-Spades} and Juanda was left with only a few thousand in chips which were taken from him a few hands later.

Nam Le Starts Over

Nam Le
Nam Le
All of the action was preflop for Nam Le and his opponent. Le raised to 2,800 after his opponent opened for 900. The other player then made it 8,000 to go. That raise sent Le into the tank, where he stayed for a minute before raising again, this time to 20,000. His opponent was all in for 25,000 after that, with Le making the call. Their hands were somewhat predictable:

Le: {K-Clubs} {K-Hearts}
Opponent: {A-Hearts} {A-Diamonds}

There was no king to be found anywhere on the board. It ran out {4-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} {7-Spades} {5-Diamonds} {10-Spades}, knocking Le all the way back to the starting stack of 20,000 chips.

Still No Dwan

We caught a glimpse of Tom "durrrr" Dwan a few levels ago, when he graced the Crown Poker Room with his presence long enough to play a couple of hands. He hasn't been back since. His lonely stack sits at Table 26, continuing to be blinded off.
