Well, we came within a table of making the money before the dinner break. From our Day 2 starting field of 171, just about 40 of them have survived until now.
The ones who have are being rewarded with a one-hour dinner break until 7:30 PM local time. We'll see you then.
Ron McMillen moved all in on a board showing 
and his opponent called, showing 
. McMillen turned over 
for the full house.
McMillen turned to his neighbor and said, "You can never get away with six deuce."
Indeed Ron, indeed.

A gentleman under the gun limped into the pot, and the rest of the table folded around to the blinds. In the small, Dorothy Vonsachsen looked down at 
and shoved all in for 54,500 total. Next door to her, though, the big blind woke up with 
, and he made the quick call. The UTG player tanked for ages, but he eventually surrendered, and the cards were shown down. Vonsachsen needed to catch up in a big way, and she asked the dealer for her one time.
But it was no use. The board ran out 
, and that's the end of the (yellow brick) road for Vonsachsen. She's been eliminated a few spots away from the money, and it's now a bunch of men left competing for this title.

A short-stacked player shoved all in from middle position, and Sam Barnhart followed suit by reraising all in for about 60,000 total. Not to be outdone, Matt Keikoan made the overcall, and we suddenly had two players at risk as the cards were turned over.
Showdown
Short stack: 
Barnhart: 
Keikoan: 
Barnhart pleaded for an ace, while the short stack lamented his unfortunate predicament. "I'm in bad shape," he said, stating the obvious a bit.
In the end, neither of the two men could catch up to Keikoan, and the 
board has sent two players to the exit. It's a nice boost to his already big stack, moving him all the way up to 305,000. Plus another 500, if you want to get picky about it.
Keikoan is a former champion of this event from 2009, and he's quite possibly the best player left in the room -- a recipe for trouble for the rest of the field.

Matthew Weber was down around 60,000 chips or so when he three-bet shoved with . His opponent took a few minutes to be sure, then made the covering call with .
Weber was not happy with the perceived slowroll, and he let fly with a string of profanity as he spun out of his chair and away from the table. "You're never folding queens there!" he finished.
The board ran out 
to miss Weber, and he made a bee-line for the rail.
