Diaz Bubbles

That didn't take long. On one of the very first final table hands, Gilbert Diaz got his stack in with pocket kings. Alex Filatov called with pocket jacks and caught a jack on the flop to send Diaz to the rail as the bubble boy.

Kyle Carlston Eliminated in 8th Place ($15,125)

Phil Gordon opened for 17,000. Action passed to Kyle Carlston who moved all in for 39,000. Gordon called with {k-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}. Carlston's {2-Diamonds}{7-Spades} was drawing, but out-flopped {7-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}. The turn {10-Spades} didn't change anything, but the river {10-Diamonds} did. It gave each player jacks and tens, with Gordon's king kicker playing.

Treys for Shannon

Phil Gordon opened to 36,000 and Shannon Elizabeth made the call from the big blind.

Elizabeth open-shoved for her last 53,000 on the {2-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} flop and Gordon made the call.

Elizabeth: {3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}
Gordon: {A-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}

The turn landed the {8-Clubs} to give Gordon an additional out to go along with his ace or four, but when the river landed the {Q-Clubs}, Elizabeth doubled to 175,000 as Gordon slipped to 92,000 in chips.
