Josh Thomas Eliminated in 9th Place ($953)

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Josh Thomas
Josh Thomas

Josh Thomas shoved in over a Patrick McMahon limp.

McMahon called with the {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}. Thomas had the {q-Diamonds}{10-Spades} and the {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}{9-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{9-Spades} board was all McMahon.

Maurice Sessum Eliminated in 10th Place ($758)

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Maurice Sessum
Maurice Sessum

It was a six-way limped pot and Maurice Sessum shoved in for 165,000 on a {j-Spades}{10-Clubs}{4-Clubs} flop. Steve Roberts called with the {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}, but was behind Sessum's {j-}{10-}.

The {3-Diamonds} river changed nothing, but the {a-Clubs} river was not a good one for Sessum. Roberts made aces up and he's well over one million chips now with Sessum out.

Level: 22

Blinds: 10,000/20,000

Ante: 3,000

Final Table Counts

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Castanza Out, Final Ten Set

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Michael Castanza
Michael Castanza

Michael Castanza shoved nines over an Arthur Gates open.

Gates called with big slick and a king on the river ended Castanza.

They are now down to a final table of ten.

Heads In The Clouds

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Douglas Cloud doubled to 200,000 making a set of eights against Tom Babiarz' {a-}{j-}.

Then, Babiarz raised and Cloud shoved {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. Babiarz had the {a-Spades}{j-Spades} again, and this time he held for the knockout on a {9-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} run out.

Just one more elimination and they will be down to a final table of ten.

Level: 21

Blinds: 8,000/16,000

Ante: 2,000

Abraham Out, Babiarz Leads

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Tom Babiarz
Tom Babiarz

John Abraham jammed {k-}{5-} into a {7-}{7-}{q-} flop.

Tom Babiarz had the {7-}{4-} and made the call. Abraham is on the rail now, there's 12 left and Babiarz has suddenly grabbed the lead.

Babiarz started the day near the bottom of the counts under 60,000. His meteoric rise today now includes becoming the first player with seven figures in his stack.

Empty Threats

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

George Nicolaides shoved eights and ran into Josh Thomas' queens.

Queens held and they are down to 15.

John Abraham has been continually threatening to take all Thomas' chips. However, that might prove a tough task now that Thomas has him about 3:1.

The Big Stack Bully

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Steve Roberts
Steve Roberts

Steve Roberts has suddenly sprung to life again.

He was just seen bullying Michael Castanza off of a 100,000-chip pot and has moved into the chip lead on over 650,000.
