Fouad El Adli Eliminated by Allen Cunningham

Allen Cunningham raises from late position to 10,000, Fouad El Adli moves all in from the small blind for 25,000, and Cunningham calls with {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts}. El Adli shows {9-Hearts}{3-Hearts}, and he'll need to improve to stay alive.

The board comes {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}{6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}, and Cunningham wins the pot with queen high to increase his stack to about 73,000.

Fouad El Adli is eliminated.

Joe Sebok Doubles Through Alan Jaffray

Joe Sebok is all in preflop for 34,000 with {K-Hearts}{J-Spades} against Alan Jaffray's {7-Clubs}{7-Spades}. The flop comes {K-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{6-Hearts}, and Sebok claps his hands as he takes the lead with two pair. The last two cards are {10-Hearts}{9-Spades}, and Sebok breathes a sigh of relief as he doubles up to over 70,000 in chips.

Joe Sebok doesn't normally care about cashing, always keeping his eye on the final table and the winner's circle. But because his bet with Gavin Smith and Jeff Madsen awards points for cashing in certain events, Sebok is eager to make it into the money -- a new experience for him.

Humberto Doubles Through Mark Smith

After a flop of {J-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{7-Spades}, Humberto Brenes moves all in for 42,000, and Mark Smith calls from the button with {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts}. But Brenes shows {9-Clubs}{8-Spades} for the flopped jack-high straight. The last two cards are {4-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}, and Brenes doubles up to about 168,000 in chips.

After the hand, Humberto says he has only had three hands in three hours, and then said, "Hungry! Hungry!" in the way that only he can. Of course, we've been playing for less than two hours, but who's to argue with Humberto's logic?
