Change Of Plan

The TD has announced that seeing as we're so tantalizingly close to the money, we'll be taking a 10 minute break at the end of this level and then returning to play down to the delicious cash.

Sebok Finds a Hand

Joe Sebok found some timely aces to knock out two players with one metaphorical stone, and is now up to 42,000.

A gent limped in mid position and Sebok raised to 3,000. The small blind moved all in with pocket nines, the limper called all in with {K-Clubs} {J-Diamonds}, and Sebok was only too happy to make the call.

Board: {Q-Spades} {10-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} {7-Diamonds}

Hellmuth's Had His Phil

His opponent took the bottle of water too.
His opponent took the bottle of water too.
After hours of just hanging on, Phil Hellmuth is finally bust.

He somehow managed to get it in with {9-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} against an opponent's pocket {8-Clubs} {8-Diamonds}. The opponent made quads, and Hellmuth walked away shaking his head.

Persaud Nik'd

Nik Persaud was down to 4,000 and declaring that he was going to let himself ante away a little while ago. "I'm really too hungover to play," he sighed. And indeed, that was the last anyone saw of him.

Dennis Phillips was spotted at the rail by our keen-eyed field reporter -- it turns out he smacked pocket kings into pocket aces, and that was the end of that.
