Dennis Foli, Robert Stotka, Jack Maresca, and Jeanne David Have Been Eliminated

Dennis Foli was eliminated when he flopped top pair with A-10 on a A-Q-Q board and Leon Lewis pushed with K-K. Tom Draeper folded (he said he folded A-J) and it looked like Foli was about to double up when a King spiked on the turn to knock him out.

The last woman in the Senior Event field, Jeanne David was eliminated when her pocket Sixes ran into Ernest Bennett's pocket Aces

Ronald Matusek, Sanford Cohen, and Tom Draeper Have Been Eliminated

The way players keep falling you'd think were were an hour into Day 1, not five players from the final table. After the short stacked Ronald Matusek was eliminated in 17th place, Sanford Cohen was knocked out when his A-K was outflopped by Ed Smith's A-J.

Then, Tom Draeper lost a huge pot when he raised to 70K in early position and Thomas Catanzaro moved all-in. Draeper called with A-J, Catanzaro had pocket Queens, and once again the Ladies held up. That pushed Catanzaro up to 590,000 and sent Draeper to the rail.

Tony Korfman Chipping Up

Tony Korfman won two hands to more than double his stack. He took a tidy pot from Thomas Catanzaro when he flopped a Queen with A-Q and his 60K bet was enough to make Catanzaro give up his pocket Sevens.

A few hands later Korfman raised to 30K and John Zaiss moved all-in with pocket Fives. Korfman called with pocket Deuces and spiked a Deuce on the flop to send Zaiss out.

Good Fold

Thomas Catanzaro raised to 33K from the cutoff and Ernest Bennett raised to 133,000. Catanzaro called, and he also called Bennett's 100K bet after the {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} flop. When the {K-Diamonds} hit on the turn Bennett moved all-in for 175,000. Catanzaro folded...and Bennett flipped over {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} for the Royal Flush. That boosted Bennett's stack up to 670K and left Catanzaro with 250,000...but more that he would've had if he hadn't folded.
