Updated Chip Counts

Level 29 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Cuong Van Nguyen Eliminated in 11th Place ($6,431)

Level 29 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Cuong Van Nguyen - 11th Place
Cuong Van Nguyen - 11th Place

Phanora Prom raised to 260,000 under the gun only to have Cuong Van Nguyen three-bet all in for 310,000 more from the small blind. Prom got a count, and then made the call.

Nguyen: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Prom: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}

Nguyen was ahead and looking to dodge an ace, which he did on the {j-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop. The dealer then burned and turned the {A-Diamonds}! Prom spiked his card and suddenly Nguyen was drawing to two outs. The {Q-Diamonds} river was not it, and Nguyen fell in 11th place.

The official final table is now set.

Level 29 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
David Gutfreund - 12th Place
David Gutfreund - 12th Place

Action folded to David Gutfreund in the small blind and he moved all in. Ross Reichert gave it some thought from the big and eventually called.

Gutfreund: {k-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}
Reichert: {a-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}

Gutfreund was dominated, and he was never able to overtake Reichert as the board ran out {10-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{10-Clubs}{q-Spades}{6-Diamonds}. Gutfreund will take home $6,431 for his 12th-place finish.

Big Flip for 2.4 Million

Level 29 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante

Don Angstead opened with a raise and then snap-called off for 1.175 million after David Gutfreund moved all in.

Gutfreund: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
Angstead: {q-Clubs}{q-Spades}

It was a classic flip, but this time the proverbial coin came down in Angstead's favor as the board ran out {j-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{4-Spades}.

Updated Chip Counts from Table 9

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Angstead vs. Nguyen

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Don Angstead got his last 665,000 all in preflop with the {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds} and was at risk against Cuong Van Nguyen, who held {a-}{j-}.

The {j-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{5-Clubs} flop gave Nguyen two pair, but the {10-Diamonds} turn gave Angstead the lead with Broadway. The {3-Spades} river was a blank, and Angstead doubled up.
