Full Updated Chip Counts From the Final Two Tables

"miceli86" Scores a Knockout

Blinds: 6,000/12,000

After a raise to 24,000 from "miceli86", "BondDamian07" moved all in for his final 75,000 and change. "miceli86" called with {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}, and he was in pretty good shape against the {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} of "BondDamian07".

The flop of {k-Spades}{9-Hearts}{6-Hearts} gave "miceli86" top pair, but also gave "BondDamian07" a gut shot straight draw. That draw would never come in, and a river jack wasn't enough for "BondDamian07" to come from behind, knocking him out in 21st place.

Updated Chip Counts (Full)

Just three tables of players remain now, and you can view the updated chip counts of everyone of those players below.

Trip Tens Give Menzer the Lead

Blinds: 4,000/8,000

Mike “mmenz08816” Menzer kicked off the action with a raise to 17,600, and "Alysheebet" was the only caller. The flop came down {10-Clubs}{7-Spades}{4-Diamonds}, and Menzer continued for 20,000. "Alysheebet" called, and the {10-Spades} hit the turn. Menzer checked this time, and "Alysheebet" bet out 23,550.

Menzer went for it all, shoving for 126,000 effective, and "Alysheebet" made the call with {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}. The overpair was no longer good though, as Menzer showed {k-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for trips.

A deuce on the river completed the board, and Menzer scored the knockout to become the first player over the 500,000 marker.

"zhatka" Virtually Doubles To More than 400,000

Blinds: 3,500/7,000

"quilts7x7" raised to 14,000, and "zhatka" was the only caller in the small blind. Both players would check after the flop of {j-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{9-Spades}, but after the {4-Diamonds} turn, the fuse was lit.

"zhatka" bet out 25,220, only to see "quilts7x7" raise to 66,500. "zhatka" would shove all in for 193,220, and "quilts7x7", who had just 2,000 less, called.

"zhatka": {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
"quilts7x7": {a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

"quilts7x7" had a massive draw, but a king on the river only strengthened "zhatka"'s hand. He scored the knockout, and took the overall chip lead in the process.

The Big Stacks As Players Reach the Money

Hand for Hand Play About to Begin

The tournament lobby says 41 players remaining, which means that the bubble is here. After one more elimination, players will start hand-for-hand play. Once we are down to 39, all of them will have $208.71 locked up!

Stay tuned for a list of the big stacks once the money has been reached.

"BondDamian07" Vaults Into the Chip Lead

Blinds: 2,500/5,000

"epdawg5" opened the action by moving all in for just under 64,000, and big stack Sanjeev "sandman9876" Datta called. "BondDamian07" was next to act, and he would move all in over the top, forcing a fold from Datta.

"epdawg5": {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
"BondDamian07": {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}

"epdawg5" was miles behind, but the flop of {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}{q-Hearts} gave "epdawg5" some new found life. It was short lived though, as the board finished out {8-Diamonds} and {k-Diamonds}.

With that pot, "BondDamian07" is now the chip leader with over 320,000.

Mike “mmenz08816” Menzer Shoves the River

Blinds: 2,500/5,000

"CerPrisingLe" raised it up to 10,000 from under, and Mike “mmenz08816” Menzer was the lone caller on the button. The flop came down all clubs, {j-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{2-Clubs}, and "CerPrisingLe" led for 15,000. Menzer called, the {a-Hearts} hit the turn, and "CerPrisingLe" bet out the same, 15,000. Menzer called again, and the river was the {q-Hearts}.

This time, "CerPrisingLe" checked, and Menzer pulled the trigger, moving all in for his final 63,000. "CerPrisingLe" barely had him covered, and was not willing to risk most his stack, as he tapped the fold button.
