Abe Mosseri Eliminated

[user25067]

Omaha-8:

Abe Mosseri's bottle-tossing days with the rail are over. Unfortunately, so is his tournament.

With the action folded to him in the small blind, Mike Wattel put in a raise and Mosseri called from the big blind. The flop was {K-Hearts}

. Wattel bet out and Mosseri called all in.

The turn was the {7-Spades}

and the river the {4-Spades}

. Wattel showed {A-Spades}

, good for the nut flush and a 7-6 low. Mosseri mucked and made his exit.

After the hand, Wattel was up to 425,000.

Still Hope for Negreanu

[user40108]

As we mentioned on Day 1 of this event, there were three players with an opportunity to take over the #1 spot on the all-time money list should they take home a title in this event.

Allen Cunningham and Phil Hellmuth are no longer with us, but Daniel Negreanu is still alive and above average in chips. Should Negreanu emerge as champion, not only would he win his second bracelet at this year's WSOP, his career earnings would surpass those of current #1, Jamie Gold.

Razz:
