Super Survivor Siegel Out Early

Kaelaine Minton

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Eric Siegel has been crushing the survivors during this series, but could not put together a deep run in the Championship event. His final hand was ace-king and he ran smack into pocket Aces.

He's not re-entering the Championship, but rather has joined Event #21: $230 DeepStack NLH, which is running just inside the Event Center entrance.

Flipping Out During the Break

Kaelaine Minton

Level 11 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

During the break, Borgata was running "One and Done" single hand "Flip-Outs", where ten players put in $360 each and they run out one hand. The player with the best hand walks away with $3,500 in cash.

Two iterations were run during the break and the first was won by Tim Burden, whose made the second-nut-flush, good for $3,500.

The second round was won by Sridhar Sangannagari after a tease by Maurice Hawkins. The board read and Hawkins had for trip deuces, but Sangannagari flipped over his cards and found for jacks-full to take the $3,500!

Kachittavong Out of Championship

Kaelaine Minton

Level 11 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

The free-rolling Soukha Kachittavong has busted out of the Championship event, despite his best efforts. He was free-rolling the event, thanks to the Borgata's promotion where a free $3,500 seat is awarded based on a random drawing from players who entered on their web site.

With $1.5 million in tournament earnings, he was a good shot at parlaying that free entry into a payday, but it was not to be. He's likely to turn up in the $5,100 High Roller later today.
