Hertzel Zalewski Eliminated in 8th Place ($17,933)
On the second round, each player drew one before Libson made another bet. Zalewski put in a raise, Schneider folded, and Libson called the extra bet.
On the final draw, both Libson and Zalewski stood pat, and the former check-called a bet from Zalewski. Both men said, "Eighy-six," nearly simultaneously. Libson showed down the winner though, tabling 8-6-5-3-2. That loss knocked Zalewski down to just 22,000
*****
On the next hand, Zalewski raised first in, and Masayoshi Tanaka made it three bets. Brad Libson called, as did Zalewski, whose call put him all in and at risk. The betting rounds were pretty uneventful, and Zalewski would draw two cards the whole way. After patting on the last round, Libson tabled 9-8-7-5-3, good enough to win the pot and eliminate Hertzel Zalewski in 8th place. He'll get a pay bump up to just about $18,000 for his efforts.
Nam Le Eliminated in 9th Place ($13,423)
On the second draw, Le was down to drawing two, but Tanaka patted and bet again. That was enough to fold Le, leaving him with 11,000 chips.
*****
On the next hand, Hertzel Zalewski limped in from the small blind, and Le took a free draw from the big. Both men took three cards, and Zalewski bet out. Le had just 3,000 chips left, and he called all in. He would draw two-one on the last two rounds, and Zalewski drew one time before patting on the last draw.
Le showed 5-4-3-2 before drawing an ugly king at the end. Zalewski had patted his T-9-8-4-2, and it was the winner. With that, the short-stack ninja Nam Le has finally been put out of his misery, exiting in 9th place.
Libson Wounds Le
On the second round, Tanaka was the only man drawing two, while Libson and Le took one apiece. The betting checked to the button this time, and Le made a bet which got two callers.
Tanaka and Libson wanted one more card while Le stood pat, and the action checked around. Libson showed down the winner with 8-7-6-3-2, earning the first significant pot of Day 3.
Le - 42,000
Libson - 230,000
