Level 10
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
With one limper in front of him, a suddenly short Kenny Ball shipped it in from the button with two sevens.
The small blind called, as did Rich Giambra in the big and the limper. The flop came 
and it checked around. However, after the small blind checked the 
turn, Giambra fired out a bet.
Everyone folded and Giambra showed a set of nines. Drawing to an eight, Ball missed on the river and busted.

In The Mix
Level 11
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
Hamilton, Ontario, Canada's Derek Hinchliffe just leaped into contention here getting all his chips in the middle holding 
on a 
flop.
His heads-up opponent held 
and was left with just a few chips and his chair when the 
run out made Hinchliffe two pair.

Meet The New Boss
Level 11
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
Using every bit of the rather loose image he created from the hand he built his stack with moments earlier, Derek Hinchliffe flopped a set of sevens and got Randy Pfeifer to put all his chips in the middle having paired up.
As a result, Pfeifer is finished and Hinchliffe leads.

Get Rich Or Die Trying
Level 12
: 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Rich Giambra just crested the 100,000-chip mark busting yet another unlucky soul.
"Another one bites the dust," he said, raking in the chips after he got his opponent all in with nines versus queens and spiked an unnecessary queen on the turn to make a set.
