While You Wait...

We again apologize for our lack of internet right now. The staff here at the Rio is working away at the problem, but there are no signs of improvement so far. Here's what we've missed.

Brian Haack was down to 18,000 chips, and they all went in a three-way pot. On the turn, the board read {3-Hearts}

, and Haack held {A-Clubs}

. Ted Lawson showed {3-Spades}

, and the river blanked off to send Haack home.

A short time later, Bill Gazes became the next victim of Day 2. The board in his final hand read {K-Diamonds}

. Gazes held {A-Clubs}

and could not beat Steve Zolotow's {A-Diamonds}

. Gazes is out.

Ralph Perry was next to go. On a board of {8-Hearts}

, Perry got himself all in on the river. Yueqi Zhu showed down {A-Hearts}

, his nut flush doing the job of eliminating Perry.

And last but not least, The Poker Brat is no longer with us either. Hellmuth was all in on a board showing {A-Clubs}

. He showed {A-Hearts}

but could not match Pat Pezzin's {A-Spades}
