Davood Mehrmand Eliminated

Davood Mehrmand
Davood Mehrmand
Davood Mehrmand raised to 21,000 preflop with only 8,000 behind, Chris Dombrowski reraised him all in and Mehrmand called.

Mehrmand = {A-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}
Dombrowski = {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}

Board = {10-Spades}{2-Spades}{K-Spades}{J-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}

Merhmand, who was one of the more enigmatic players in this event, leaves in silence, clearly disappointed to have gone so deep without making that final table.

Eugene Todd Eliminated

Eugene Todd is OUT. Jan Von Halle raised to 18,000 preflop and Todd raised all in. Von Halle made the call, as you do, holding {A-Clubs} {A-Spades} -- Todd meanwhile could only muster {A-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}.

No more gigantic aces-cracking coolers on the {9-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} {10-Spades} {9-Diamonds} board, and Todd becomes our 18th place finisher.

Dan Quinn Eliminated

We are now down to just two tables after the elimination of Dan Quinn. Although he disposed of Al Adler just several hands prior, Quinn himself would soon follow suit, his {Q-Clubs}{9-Clubs} succumbing to the {Q-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} of Frenchman David Kitai on a Q-J-7-A-5 board.

18 remain.

Al Adler Eliminated

Al Adler
Al Adler
There have been two early eliminations within these opening fifteen minutes, one of whom was a short-stacked Al Adler.

Pushing all in for 19,000 from the small blind, Adler found his {6-Spades}{8-Diamonds} being looked up by Dan Quinn's {Q-Clubs}{9-Spades} in the big.

A {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{7-Clubs}{9-Clubs} board was no good and Alder was gone.

Quinn now on 80,000.
