On Break

The players have left for a 15-minute break and we're coloring up the 100 chips. So it might be a bit more than fifteen minutes.

Joel King Is Eliminated

After winning a big pot at the start of the day, Joel King lost a big pot that ended his day. After David Icke raised under the gun King came over the top for all his chips. Icke called and his A-Q dominated King's K-Q and Ace-high took the pot. King was eliminated in 88th place, while Icke built his stack to 110K.

Brad Daugherty Chips Up

The 1991 World Champion moved all-in from the small blind with A-Q. The big blind, down to his last 15,000 or so, woke up with A-K and called. He looked to be in good shape to double up...right up to the point where the flop came Q-J-J. That pot put Daugherty's stack up to 60K.

99: Paul Howard

Amarillo Slim Preston Has Been Eliminated

One of the game's great champions (and one of our chip leaders coming into play today), Amarillo Slim Preston played a big pot with Hassan Kamoei and came out on the wrong end. Kamoei raised to 9,000 and Slim popped it up to 34K. Kamoei moved all-in, Slim called and turned over pocket Tens. But Kamoei had the Aces, and despite picking up a diamond draw on the {2-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} flop, Amarillo Slim didn't catch the cards he needed the rest of the way and was eliminated.

The players and spectators around the table gave him an impromptu ovation as he stood up from the table, and as he walked to the payout table Media Director Nolan Dalla made an announcement to the entire Amazon Room that the former World Champion had been eliminated. And the entire room gave Amarillo Slim another big round of applause. Slim goes out in 96th place.
