The latest player to walk past out desk and out the door? Amnon Filippi.
Thor Hansen and Jerry Yang have both followed Amnon Filippi out the door.
John Dolan raised to 2,800 from early position and received calls from the button and small blind. Action checked to the button on the flop and he bet 4,100.

Joe Tehan, who has won a major tournament in this building before, is out after two run-ins with November Niner Joseph Cheong.
In the first hand, Tehan three-bet a Cheong open, then folded to a reraise.
On the next hand, Cheong was the one opening to 2,500 again, and this time Tehan three-bet all in for his last 24,000 or so, ensuring he wouldn't fold to the four-bet. Cheong called, and the hands were on their backs. It was pocket threes for Tehan, and he was flipping for the double against Cheong's ace-jack.
The flop was an awful sweat for Tehan, and the turn left him dead to a chop. The river blanked off, and that's that for Tehan, relegated to the rail here on Day 2.
Action folded to Chris DeMaci, the chip leader at the start of Day 2, and he raised to 2,800. Both the small blind and Eddy Sabat in the big made the call as the flop fell . Again action checked to DeMaci and he continuation bet 4,700. Both his opponents folded and DeMaci took down the pot. His good run continues as he is up to 321,000.
From early position, Greg Debora raised to 2,600. The button called and the small blind called to see the flop come down . The big blind checked the flop and Debora bet 4,400. After the button called, the big blind folded.
The turn card was the and Debora bet 8,900. The button called this time as well.
