Khong Ng Eliminated in 24th Place ($21,884)

Khong Ng moves all in from middle position, Brandon Palm moves all in over the top from the cutoff, and everyone else folds. Ng shows {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}, and Palm dominates him with {K-Clubs}{K-Spades}.

The board comes {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{3-Clubs}, and Palm's kings hold up to win the pot.

Khong Ng is eliminated in 24th place, earning $21,884.

Four Players All in; Matt Mauldin Eliminated in 27th Place ($21,884)

Matt Mauldin is short-stacked and moves all in from early position, Errol Blazyn raises from late position to 55,000, Kuong Lu calls from the cutoff, and Matt Smith moves all in over the top from the big blind for 81,000. Blazyn asks if he can reraise, and a floorperson is called over. The ruling is that the raise was not enough, so Blazyn can only call or fold. Blazyn calls, and Lu calls.

The flop comes {J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{3-Spades}, Blazyn bets 100,000, Lu moves all in, and Blazyn calls. All four players reveal their holecards:

Matt Mauldin: {Q-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} -- queen high
Matt Smith: {K-Clubs}{K-Spades} -- overpair of kings
Errol Blazyn: {A-Hearts}{J-Clubs} -- pair of jacks
Kuong Lu: {10-Clubs}{10-Spades} -- a set of tens

Lu leads with his set, but the turn card is the {K-Hearts}, giving Smith a higher set of kings, and giving Mauldin an open-ended straight draw.

The river card is the {8-Clubs}. Matt Smith wins the main pot with his set of kings, increasing his stack to 380,000. Kuong Lu wins the side pot with a set of tens.

Matt Mauldin is eliminated in 27th place, earning $21,884.

The Final Three Tables

The final 27 players are now redrawing for the final three tables. At the dinner break (just minutes ago) we had three women left, or 10 percent of the field. But with Jennifer Tilly's elimination in 30th place and Lynne Mitchnik's elimination in 28th place, we are left with just one female -- Anna Wroblewski -- who is battling for the chip lead.
