Matthew Kursar was eliminated in 37th place moments ago by Randall. After he was knocked out, he asked the floor where he should go to collected his money. The problem is, only 33 players are making money today. When the floor told him they weren't in the money, Kursar said "oh shit!" and walked away shaking his head.
When the table heard this, they wondered if he would have made the same play had he know they weren't in the money. Regardless, we are now down to the final four tables, and 3 players from the money.
