The seat of Aaron Lim is now occupied by Mohsin Charania, Lim didn't bust a 10k stack though because that's what he accumulated on Day 1A. His second bullet today wasn't as successful and he is out. Same goes for Scot Davies as well:
Back on July 14, the 2014 World Series of Poker Main Event final table was set. The players in this year's "November Nine" are set to resume play on November 10, and it is a globally diverse group of young players who will be battling it out for the $10 million top prize.
Just before the 2014 WSOP, William Tonking scored a $50,000 payday on WSOP.com in his home state of New Jersey. That $50,000 is a far cry from the $730,725 he's guaranteed for making the WSOP Main Event final table, but Tonking claims he was never much of a tournament player.
"I was never much of a tournament player," Tonking told PokerNews. "This is only the third one that I’ve played this year. I’m more of a cash-game player."
It sounds like the third time was the charm for Tonking, and this cash-game player will be looking to make more of a name for himself by taking down the "grand daddy of them all" for a massive $10 million.
Current World Series of Poker Player of the Year leader Brandon Shack-Harris was recently eliminated from the tournament.
We missed the hand, but Shack-Harris was kind enough to fill us in on the details. As he told it, he shipped his short stack all in from the hijack with and received a call from an opponent holding . Both a king and jack appeared on the board, and that was all she wrote for Shack-Harris, who joined his girlfriend, Steph, on the rail.
Shack-Harris mentioned that he will return for Day 1c, but in the meantime he's going to see about his luggage situation. Apparently some travel delays have resulted in his suitcases not making it to Melbourne. At least his trademark hat did!
There was a raise to 150 from under the gun and a call in middle position before David Bowen three-bet to 400 from the blind on the very last hand before the break. He got called by both opponents to see the flop. Bowen continued for 550 straight away and the initial raiser quickly folded.
His sole remaining opponent gave it some thought and then said, "I give up," before mucking his cards.
"No, don't do that," Bowen joked back before tossing his cards to the dealer.
We noticed Jonathan Dimmig involved in a three-way hand to the flop and Jackson Zheng as well as the Millionaire Maker champion checked. The initial raiser bet 175 and Zheng raised to 450 before Dimmig moved all in for 1,675. Both opponents mucked their cards and the American is almost back to starting stack.

Andoni Larrabe represents Spain at this year's WSOP Main Event final table, and he's also the youngest player of the bunch at 22 years old. Bunched right in the middle of the pack (fourth) with 22.5 million in chips, Larrabe brings a good online poker background to the table where he has captured two Spring Championship of Online Poker titles.
In the live poker realm, Larrabe had $341,266 coming into the final table. He then notched two more small scores in his home country during European Poker Tour Barcelona.
"I'm going to approach it as calm as I can," Larrabe told ESPN's Andrew Feldman about the final table. "There's a lot of time. I'll think about it, but the most important thing will be to go relax."
