Ante: 4,000
Spaid:
Glasser:
Glasser's pocket jacks held up on the
board and Spaid was eliminated in 12th place, collecting $36,756. After the hand, Glasser was up to 660,000.
Tran:
Wood:
Neither player hit a pair and Tran's king high was best. Tran doubled up to about 155,000 and after picking up the blinds and antes with an all-in move the very next hand, and now sits with approximately 190,000 in chips.
Kerr:
Tran:
The flop was
and Kerr hit his set. The turn was the 
, the river was the 
and Kerr doubled to 695,000. Tran was crippled, left with only 38,000.
Spaid:
Khanis:
The flop was great for Spaid coming
. The turn helped neither player when it came the 
. Khanis was one card from elimination when the dealer put the 
down on the river. He jumped into air and clapped, seemingly involuntarily. He is back in the mix, now with 262,000 chips.
Segovia:
Early:
The flop was
, pairing Segovia's four, but opening up a flush draw for Early. Early hit his diamond on the 
turn but if another fell, Segovia would make a higher flush. The river, though was the meaningless and Segovia hit the rail in 13th place, collecting $29,331 for his efforts.After the hand, Early was up to 1,270,000.
Glasser:
Salazar:
The flop came
giving Glasser the lead. The turn was the which was no help to either player. Salazar needed a jack and a jack only if he was to avoid elimination. The river fell the and Glasser's aces were best. Edward Salazar was eliminated in 14th place and earned himself $29,331 for his impressive finish here today.
13th and 14th place go home with just over $29,000 while 10th-12th earn nearly $37,000. I'm sure there's more than one player left at these two tables right now who is calculating how many mortgage payments he could make if he just folded to the next level.
The biggest pay jump we'll see this night, though, is from tenth to ninth where there is a $22,000-plus difference, not to mention the distinction of making a WSOP final table.
