Updated Counts

HillKerby

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Sixty-five players remain, just one elimination away from reaching hand-for-hand play and two from the bubble bursting. Updated counts from around the room have been provided below.

One of the two recent bust outs to bring the field to its size was Carson Perrault, who confirmed the details of his bust out with PokerNews before jumping in this afternoon's turbo event. According to Perrault, he was down to his last 10 big blinds and called it off from the big blind once the small blind put him all in.

Perrault:
Opponent:

A nine on the flop was more than Perrault would overcome, and he was felted three from the money as a result.
