McFadden is Dunn

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Patrick McFadden had moved all in on an {A-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{4-Spades} flop and Christine Ann Dunn was tanking. After several minutes she made the call and McFadden showed {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}. "Erggh," came Dunn's reply as she flipped {A-Spades}{5-Spades}.

The turn was the {5-Hearts} and Dunn shot in front and McFadden was eliminated when the {3-Clubs} changed nothing on the river.

A Short Day for Masters

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

We're not sure of the preflop action, but we do know that David Masters got his stack of approximately 20,000 all in preflop holding the {4-Diamonds}{4-Spades} and was way behind the {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} of Daniel Wilson. Masters seemed to know he was in for a short day as he was up out of his seat waiting for the board.

Masters wore a solemn expression on his face as he helplessly watched the board run out {k-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{q-Spades}{a-Clubs}. Masters wished the table luck and then headed out of the tournament area.

The board came {8-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} and Soproni's straight put him among the chip leaders.
