Dinner Time

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

The 20 remaining players are on a 45-minute dinner break. Play will resume at approximately 6:49 p.m. local time.

Stacks Go In on All Three Tables Before Dinner

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

With less than five minutes before the dinner break, all three tables left in play just saw stacks go into the middle.

Hand #1: Robert Palacios opened to 60,000 in middle position and Richard Moore re-jammed for 297,000. Palacios called.

Moore: {4-Clubs}{4-Hearts}
Palacios: {a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

Palacios won the coin flip on a runout of {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{j-Spades}{9-Clubs}{3-Clubs} and eliminated Moore. Moments later, Patrick Watkins was seen vacating his seat from an adjacent table.

Hand #2: Travis Bettcher open-jammed for 117,000 in the cutoff and was called in the big blind by Norman Kauffman.

Bettcher: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Kauffman: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}

An ace in the window of {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} was nothing but a tease to Kauffman, who ceded the double to Bettcher as the turn {8-Clubs} and river {2-Diamonds} completed the runout in his favor.

Hand #3: A second all-in situation occurred on the table where Watkins was just eliminated, with Jason Crews getting all in with {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} against the {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} of Eric Kyle and failing to get there.

Dunn Gets Crafty

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Dakotah O'Dell limped in from early position and saw action fold around to Kaleb Dunn, who completed his small blind. Raymond Yoder checked his option in the big blind and the three saw a flop of {j-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}.

Action checked to O'Dell and he bet 45,000. Dunn check-raised to 120,000 and Yoder thought for a bit before cold-calling.

"All right," said Yoder, folding his hand, and both players checked the turn {a-Clubs} to bring the river {3-Diamonds} on board.

"Forty (thousand)," said Dunn, throwing out chips to match. Yoder looked at Dunn on his direct right and threw out chips to call.

Dunn showed {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} for two queens and it was good for the pot.

McKee Loses One, Then Eliminates Dorzweiler

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Hand #1: Vicki McKee opened to 60,000 under the gun and received a call in middle position from Donald Nimneh. Action went heads up to a flop of {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{7-Clubs} and McKee checked to Nimneh, who bet 50,000. McKee called.

McKee check-called another 80,000 on the turn {8-Clubs} and the river came {6-Diamonds}. She checked once more and Nimneh reached for chips, betting another 85,000.

"I missed it," said McKee as she tossed her cards to the muck without delay.

"I knew you was on it!" replied Nimneh. He then added, "we probably had the same hand." McKee said she had ace-ten.

Hand #2: Moments later, Tim Dorzweiler was seen making his way to the payouts desk as his stack was being shipped to McKee. McKee and Nimneh filled in the details, saying that stacks got in after McKee called a shove on the turn of a three-club board.

Dorzweiler: {a-}{7-}
McKee: {a-Clubs}{k-}

Dorzweiler's bluff was called by McKee's nut flush draw, which proved to be ahead on its own, and a seven failed to fall on the river to spell his elimination.

In the meantime, Mike Vanier and Kevin Venhaus were also recently eliminated on adjacent tables, bringing the field down to 23.

Palacios Spikes a Three Outer

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Robert Palacios raised in middle position and saw David Caron three-bet to 110,000 in the small blind. Palacios four-bet jammed and Caron asked for a count, which was in the process of being totaled to 414,000 before he wasted no further time calling.

Palacios: {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}
Caron: {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}

"Come on, three outer," requested Palacios, and his request was immediately granted on {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}{4-Clubs}. The case queen did not come as {5-Spades}{7-Diamonds} completed the runout and Palacios earned the full double as a result.

Just after the redraw, Dave Grandin was eliminated in 27th place, and the field has remained at 26 for several minutes since then.

Wilson Falls in 28th; Places 28-36

Level 20 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

"All in," said Mike Wilson on a completed board of {4-Spades}{a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} from the big blind in a heads-up pot against Guanyun Cheng. Cheng snap-called.

Wilson had {k-Spades}{8-Spades} for a full house, but was shown the bad news as Cheng tabled {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds} and he was eliminated in 28th place.

The tournament clock has now been paused for the three-table redraw. In the meantime, the following players finished in 28-36th place.
