Level 16
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Mudasser Hussain shoved all in for 35,500 from the cutoff and Thomas McAlister looked him up from the big blind.
Hussain: 
McAlister: 
McAlister was ahead and strengthen his position when the 
flop paired his ace, though it gave Hussain a Broadway draw to a ten. Fortunately for McAlister, neither the 
turn nor 
river were it and he sent Hussain packing in 100th place.

Christopher Patrick Morkan let out a loud, "Yes!"
The reason being that he'd just survived with 
on a

Niall Geraghty is one of the first casualties of the money. He was all in with 
against Daniel Wilson's 
and attempted the 'put your coat on and prepare to leave' tactic in the hope that his cards would come. Sadly, the poker gods weren't listening and the board came 
.

That bubble didn't take long, just one hand in fact. On the first hand of hand-for-hand play, Nicholas Newport got his stack of 17,500 all in over at Table 8 and was up against Full Tilt Poker qualifier Barry Donovan.
Action was halted to allow the rest of the tables to complete their hands, a process that took about 90 seconds. During that time a large crowd gathered around the table and waited in anticipation for the two players to reveal their hands. When the time was right, the cards were turned up.
Donovan: 
Newport: 
The rail let out a collective moan upon discovering the cooler. Newport was in bad shape, though the PokerNews Odds Calculator indicates that he had a 18.55% chance of coming from behind to win the hand.
That percentage dropped to 12.02% after the 
flop failed to help Newport, and the turn knocked it down even further to 4.55%. Newport needed a queen on the river to stay alive, but it was not meant to be as the 
peeled off. With that, the remaining 104 players are in the money!

Patrick Mccann started today with a big stack but it's all gone the way of Raul Paez on the feature table. The money was all in on the turn of a board, Mccann held 
but Paez had flopped a set with 
. The river couldn't get Mccann out of trouble and he has gone out just before the money.
Also eliminated is Philip Baker who lost a flip with jacks to Tomasz Raniszewski's ace-king.
There are now just 105 players left and we're going hand for hand.
