The question was posed in the shout box as to his current existence in this event, and I can report that Allen Cunningham is indeed still in, having just eliminated an all-in opponent and three-quartered Ethan Werner in one fell swoop.
With the board reading , Werner bet 3,000, Cunningham called, and a third player called all in.
A river led to another bet of 3,000 from Werner, which was re-raised to 6,000 by Cunningham.
Werner made the call, albeit reluctantly and with a sigh, and revealed for the nut low. However, Cunningham flipped to share the low, but scoop the high with a turned straight.
Michael Mizrachi has dropped a few chips in recent minutes, and "Miami" John Cernuto has picked up a few, meaning that Cernuto is our new chip leader on 91,000.
Steve Zolotow
Whilst there is a momentary lull in the action, I feel I must share with you some of the colorful attire on display today. Whilst Steve Zolotow dons a shirt with a roaring tiger and the slogan 'Play Tough' on the back, just one table down a talkative, but seemingly amicable Alan Boston is wearing a resplendent hoody which has a repeated pattern of what appears to be headache tablets. Finally, we have Bill Gazes, towering over his table with a striking pale blue shirt and cap combo, his shirt boasting a splendid picture of a leaping unicorn.
As always, the World Series remains a blank canvas for participants to showcase their exuberant and colorful personalties and prove that poker really is brimming with a wide range of characters.
Our latest casualty is Mickey Appleman, who couldn't beat either the eight-low of John Racener or the aces of Scott Clements, and is now heading out of the Amazon Room.
Mark Gallo, rather quiet up until now, has just scooped a hefty three-way pot with the double nuts. Holding , Gallo bet all the way down the board. Allen Cunningham called down to the turn but folded on the river; John Racener, however, called the whole way down and just mucked on the river when Gallo flipped his cards.
