Danny Wong lost back to back pots to become the short stack. First, he was knocked down to 260,000 when he was forced to fold on the river against Joe De Niro. The very next hand, Wong lost a big hand when Jean-Robert Bellande flopped a set of eights.

Wong is down to 50,000 chips.

John Kranyak Eliminated in 7th Place ($13,480)

John Kranyak - 7th Place
John Kranyak - 7th Place
John Kranyak and Joe De Niro capped the betting preflop. On a flop of {9-Spades} {4-Spades} {3-Hearts}, Kranyak bet out and De Niro called. With the turn of the {A-Hearts}, betting was again capped, but this time Kranyak was all in.

De Niro: {A-Clubs} {Q-Spades}
Kranyak: {A-Spades} {J-Hearts}

De Niro had Kranyak outkicked and only a jack would save Kranyak. The {Q-Hearts} sealed the deal for De Niro and made John Kranyak our seventh place finisher. He will take home $13,480.

Bellande Trying to Get the Game Called Early

Jean-Robert Bellande just spoke with the floor manager about possibly concluding play early and coming back tomorrow to finish the event. The supervisor told him that if he could get everyone to agree at the table, then he would arrange it. Bellande made the proposal to the table, but at present, it has not been accepted.

It is 3:12 a.m. and we expect to go at least until 7 a.m., if not later.
