A downward spiral the last half hour for the ex chip leader, all in preflop with A10d against Craig Burgess and his pocket 10s. 2 diamonds on the flop gave some hope to Morten but no help with the next 2 cards, so he is out in 34th spot

Brandon Schaefer had {J-Spades}

again but unfortunately ran into {A-Spades}

. He finished in 47th place and won $2,000. He collected $2,000 in bounties so won $4,000 for 11 hours of work. Not too bad.

No Bubble as yet

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Trying to find 49th spot, no one wants it though. Its not stopping the action though, we have seen some great folds, in hindsight. A 75K pot going away from Mr Logan as his A-Ko loses out to a flopped set of Jacks. Its getting tense as the money approaches.

Brandon Schaefer Pushes back Against Ben Roberts

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Ben Roberts had been stealing Brandon Schaefer's blinds constantly during the last level. On the button Roberts came in for his standard raise. That instance, Schaefer pushed all-in. Action was hand for hand and Schaefer risked his entire tournament life near the bubble. Roberts folded and Schaefer successfully defended his blinds.
