Jason Alexander, actor famous for portraying George Costanza on the hit 1990's sitcom Seinfeld, has been eliminated from play early in the third level of the day.
On Alexander's final hand, he and Gregor Waltermann looked down at a completed board of . With 2,550 already in the middle, Waltermann led out for a pot-sized bet of 2,500. Alexander came over the top with a raise to 6,000 and Waltermann thought for a moment. In the end, Waltermann came over the top with a three-bet to 16,000. Alexander responded by shoving all in and Waltermann instantly called.
Alexander triumphantly rolled over for a full house of jacks full of sevens. Unfortunately for Alexander, Waltermann had that beat with for quad sevens.
"That's beautiful!" said a stunned Alexander. "Now I've got a story to tell!"
Alexander took his leave from the tournament area while Waltermann increased his stack to about 49,000.

As told by our friends at the PokerStar blog, Laura Garzon is playing here today on an initial investment of six frequent player points ("FPP").
We caught a hand with Garzon, who is seated at the same table as past PCA Main Event winner John Dibella with the board showing and Garzon facing a bet of 1,100 from Antonio Matias. Garzon made the call and the dealer put out the on the turn. Matias bet 1,700 this time and Garzon would eventually make the call.
The river ws the and Matias bet again, this time for 2,700. Garzon didn't think as long as she had on the turn as she announced a call. Matias immediately mucked his hand and after the dealer pushed her the pot, Garza did as well. A couple players at the table asked to see the hand but were told that the winner does not have to show their hand if the other player mucked.
Garza was up to 33,000 after the hand and it'll be quite the story if she can turn her 6 FPP investment into a cash here.

For a man who spends six nights a week on the road, Ludwig Fernstrom never thought he'd end up where he has, and, as the PokerStars Blog reports, he never thought $11 would get him there.
We found Mike Dentale, who had checked a board of , considering a bet of 12,500 from Daniel Negreanu, who had just sat down on Dentale's left. The two talkative players exchanged some words.
"So sick," Dentale said.
Negreanu cackled in response.
"I'm gonna lay down a monster."
Dentale flicked into the pot for a set. Negreanu slapped down the and mucked his other card.
"How do I get coolered like that?" Dentale wondered aloud. "First hand he sits down, I get set up."

We didn't catch the initial action but found Tyler Reiman sitting with a bet of 3,400 in front of him and his opponent, Oleg Titov, who was one to his right, had a bet of 8,500 in front of him. Reiman thought for about a minute before grabbing his entire stack of chips and pushing them steadily into the middle. Titov snap-folded and Reiman took down the pot.
Reiman was seated next to Shaun Deeb who recently joined the action along with Jacob Bazeley.

We found Eyal Aleksnis with a bet of 8,500 in front of him in the hijack on after the community came . His opponent, Alexander Salabaschew, had pushed all in for more than 40,000, and Aleksnis was thinking it over.
"Can you beat a full house?" he asked incredulously.
Finally, he sighed and called.
"Nice call," Salabaschew said, showing . Aleksnis showed for queens full of tens, and another player at the table seemed amazed that it took Aleksnis any time at all.
