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 Eliminated in 47th Place

[user22113]

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

[user22113]

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

[user22113]

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.
