The two big stacks in the room have added more to their stacks with Josh Kay taking out Jesse Chinni with his ![]()
besting Chinni's ![]()
and then Joe Ebanks taking out Todd Boghosian after Boghosian shoved with ![]()
from the button for 28,600 and Ebanks called from the small blind with ![]()
. The board would run out ![]()
![]()

Pamela Wilson has hung around most of the day and now finds herself sitting with an above average stack after a recent confrontation with Aftab Shakoor.
We got to the table with a flop of ![]()
![]()
and Shakoor checking to Wilson. She put out a bet of 10,000 and he made the call. The turn was the
and Shakoor check-raised Wilson's 20,000 bet to 60,000. Wilson thought for a moment and then announced she was all in for an additional 21,300.
Shakoor shook his head, flipped his hand up in dismay, and made the crying call with ![]()
for second pair with a double gutter. Wilson turned over ![]()
and stood up thinking Shakoor had already made the straight. The river was the
and other players at the table told her that she had won the hand. She smiled and took her seat.

We didn't catch the action but it was relayed to us by players at the table while a sheepish (and blushing) Joe Ebanks was stacking some chips. It was folded to Roman Bartko in the small blind and he completed. Ebanks moved all in and was snap-called by Bartko who had set the trap with pocket aces. Ebanks had ![]()
and would end up hitting a straight to eliminate a disappointed Bartko.
Ebanks is up to 370,000 and we're down to 23 players.

Players are now on a 60-minute dinner break. Right before the break we lost two players. Cong Le would get unlucky with ![]()

and would lose a race to Aristoteles Neto who held ![]()
and hit the
on the turn to send Baize to the rail.
There are 20 players left. We'll have update chip counts for the remaining players posted here shortly.
