Short Stack Survival

Many of the players are taking it slow now. This may be due to the dinner break coming up. A chance for them to take a break and reassess their strategies.

All the short-stacked players who have been all in are surviving for now.

Nikolay Evdakov Eliminated in 30th Place ($16,849)

Nikolay Evdakov raised to 21,000 from under the gun, Kyle Kloeckner called from the cutoff, and Frank Vizza called from the big blind.

All checked the {J-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{8-Hearts} flop. The {4-Hearts} came on the turn. Vizza checked, Evdakov checked, Kloeckner bet 25,000, Vizza called, and Evdakov called with the rest of his chips.

The river was the {Q-Hearts}. Vizza checked, Kloeckner bet 60,000, and Vizza folded. Kloeckner showed {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{Q-Spades}. for the flopped nut flush, and Evdakov mucked.

A Friendly Turn for Hildebranski

Patryk Hildebranski just more than doubled up against Rene Mouritsen. After several had limped, Hildebranski raised all in with his last 31,000, and Mouritsen reraised, causing the others to fold.

Mouritsen had A-A-x-x, and Hildebranski J-J-x-x. Lucky for Hildebranski, a jack came on the turn, and he's up to 105,000. Mouritsen is now at 95,000.
