Even Steven

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante

Bradley Girdler and Lou Procopio both have half a million now that Girdler has doubled through Procopio.

Girdler got it in with the {a-Spades}{k-Spades} dominating Procopio's {a-Clubs}{j-Spades}. He held on a {5-Hearts}{q-Spades}{k-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{a-Hearts} board.

Easy Game?

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 4,000 ante

Bradley Girdler is teetering on the brink of elimination now after doubling up Mark Roberts.

Roberts shoved an {8-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop for 250,000 and after an eternity in the tank, Girdler called with just the {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}. He missed the brick turn and brick river, giving Roberts' {k-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} the win.

Bradley Girdler Eliminated in 7th Place ($8,612)

Bradley Girdler open-shoved under the gun for 128,000 and only Hassan Jamil called.

Girdler: {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}
Jamil: {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

It was less-than classic, but still a race and Jamil took control of it on an {a-Hearts}{2-Spades}{10-Clubs} flop. Girdler got out of his chair for the {7-Diamonds} turn and left after the {3-Spades} river.

They are now down to six with just minutes left in Level 25.

Guy Klass made it 105,000 from the cutoff and Lou Procopio shoved the small blind for 443,000. It folded back to Klass and he called with the {4-Clubs}{4-Spades}.

Procopio, who was a 2012 DeepStacks Poker Tour Western New York Poker Championship finalist as well, was at risk with the {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}.

The {4-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{j-Spades} gave Klass a set, but Procopio did have a gutshot. He missed that on the {6-Diamonds} turn and {2-Diamonds} river to say goodbye sixth.

Roberts Doubles!

Ernie Guardarramas made it 115,000 and Mark Roberts shoved for 370,000.

Guardarramas made the quick call with the {k-Diamonds}{j-Spades}, but was dominated by Roberts' {a-Spades}{j-Clubs}. Roberts got the timely double after a {3-Spades}{5-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{2-Hearts} board brought no surprises.

The Guy's All Klass

Level 26 : 20,000/40,000, 4,000 ante

Guy Klass

Hassan Jamil continues to lead, but Guy Klass is quickly becoming the story at this final table.

Klass started the day with five or six big blinds. In fact, he was under 200,000. Now, after making a straight on a board with four diamonds, he took decent sized pot off Jason Sagle and has almost two million in chips.

Klass won the 2017 Western Poker Challenge Main event in the Spring and is looking to make it two of three Seneca Main Events this year. While he started the day as a long shot to do it, you'd be hard pressed to find anyone in the room betting against him now.

Klass Leads!

Level 26 : 20,000/40,000, 4,000 ante

Guy Klass now leads with the end of Level 26 fast approaching.

Hassan Jamil has stayed close, however, after pushing Ernie Guardarramas of a big pot. There was a bit of a raising war between the two of them. Jamil finally won it with a big bet on an {8-Hearts}{4-Spades}{3-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} board. He showed the {2-Spades} for the needle.

The stacks now look eerily similar with Klass and Jamil on over two million and the other three players on one.
