Tim English has just been eliminated after losing yet another flip.
He got the last of his remaining stack in with 
against James Whittet's 
and again was outdrawn, this time being sent to the rail as a result.
Tom Grigg just will not bust, with players from left, right and centre trying to take down his bounty.
Grigg had his tournament life on the line holding 
against the 
of John Eames.
The board ran out 
and Grigg would manage to survive yet again with his bounty lanyard firmly wrapped aroun his neck.
Mel Judah was allin for his last 15,800 waking up with 
against one opponents 
.
The board ran out 
and Judah doubled-up, keeping his hopes to play the shootout alive.
As the cards were being pitched to Bruno Portaro in the big blind, he baited the players with his bounty suggesting he had the "easiest blind to steal."
Wasting no time, Jarred Solomon raised from under-the-gun to 5,100. Tim English wasn't convinced of Solomon's holdings so slid out a re-raise to 15,000. Portaro did let his blind go, but Solomon wasn't so hasty in his decision. After much deliberation, he cut out his chip stack, counted it and re-racked it, before announcing he was "all-in" for 42,000.
Tim English didn't need too long to make the call tabling 
. It would be the classic coin flip as Solomon tabled 
.
The hand was all but over on the flop of 
as Solomon got his dream flop. English was in real trouble as the turn and river bricked 
.
With that pot Solomon moved up to 86,500 in chips and English has some work to do now sitting with 25,500.

With 36 players remaining the tournament will be broken into just four tables of 9.
The shootout format will be played when another 4 players are lost whereby a re-draw will occur according to chip stack, and four tables of 8 will then commence.
Tom Grigg was down to 9,900 when he moved allin from under the gun. One player made the flat call from middle position before the action came around to the small blind player.
The player in the small blind re-shoved and Grigg had to watch on as the initial caller went into the tank. He would eventually fold and Grigg would see his tournament life on the line holding 
against the 
of his opponent.
The flop turned over 
and it was looking bleak for Grig. The on the turn was good though and when the river bricked it would be a triple-up for Grigg who moves to around 30,000.
