Marcel Luske is also not far behind -- he's up to 30,000.
Teddy "Iceman" Monroe raised from the small blind and Marc "Needle King" Naalden called out of the big. Iceman bet every street of the
board and Naalden flatted every street until the river, when he raised. Monroe passed and dropped down to 12,600; Naalden meanwhile moved on up to 14,000.

The soon-to-be-busted gent in question raised in mid position and Mueller called out of the big blind; the last of the unfortunate's chips went in on the flop and although he picked up a couple outs on the turn, none of them came through on the river and out he went.
Hapless bustee:

He called a raise preflop, as did the gent in the big blind, and they went three-way to a
flop. The big blind checked and the original raiser bet; Granstad raised and the big blind got out of their way. The original raiser reraised, Granstad called all in, and was most disappointed to see his 
dominated by Mr. Original Raiser's .No help for Granstad from the
turn or 
river and out he went, not long before the end of the day.
