J.P. Kelly Eliminated in 68th Place

J.P. Kelly has recently been eliminated from the tournament by Johnathan Tuckman.

The two got it all in before the flop; Tuckman with kings and Kelly with nines.

The board ran out ace-high without hitting either player's pair and Tuckman's kings held up to take down the pot.

After the hand, we counted Tuckman at right around 330,000 in chips.

Breaking the Bank

Brent Thomas won a monster pot just before the last break to move to 540,000 in chips, knocking former chip leader Rodney Chamma down to 120,000 in chips.

A player in middle position opened the pot with a raise to 17,000. Thomas then kicked it up to a hearty 70,000 and when the action reached Chamma in the big blind, he moved all-in over the top. The initial raiser folded, but Thomas snap-called, tabling a pocket pair of aces. Chamma then tabled his own cards -- {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}.

Five very safe community cards later, Thomas' aces remained supreme and he raked in the 540,000 pot.

Rubie Loses His Shine

Brendon Rubie: we'll take that patch back now, thanks!
Brendon Rubie: we'll take that patch back now, thanks!
Brendon Rubie was just busted at the hands of Fred Lum recently and is now off to collect from the cage.

The money was all in preflop; Rubie got it in good with {k-Spades}{k-Hearts} against Lum's {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}, but was smashed when Lum made the "nizzle-flushizzle" on a board of {a-Clubs}{3-Spades}{7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{8-Clubs}.

Having started the day with just 70,000, Lum is looking dangerous with around 300,000 in his stack.

Bailey Busto

Peter Aristidou: piling up chips
Peter Aristidou: piling up chips
James Bailey was the latest player to collect after moving all-in preflop with {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} and found himself flipping for his tournament life against Peter Aristidou's {q-Clubs}{j-Hearts}.

Aristdou took the lead on the flop of {4-Spades}{j-Clubs}{2-Clubs} and stayed there as the board ran out {4-Clubs},{2-Hearts}.

Bailey's off to the bank; Aristidou is up to 210,000.
