We walked up to a flop of 
just as Roy Winston was moving all in with 
. He was put to the test by Jason Adler who was in the lead with 
, and Winston would need to catch a card to stay alive.
Turn: 
Bink, as they say in the parlance of our times. The 
on the river was irrelevant as Winston's turned flush secured his double up. He's up to 133,000, leaving a disappointed Adler all the way down around 40,000.
Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier raised to 5,300 in late position, and Bobby Poe came along with the smooth call from the big blind.
Heads up, the flop came out 
, and both players checked. They did the same on the 
turn, and the 
filled out the board. Poe fired out a 7,500-chip stab, and ElkY called without much thought.
Poe showed his airball 
first, and ElkY tabled the winning 
to earn a little chip boost up to 113,000. Poe has slipped back to 57,000.
You can't handle the chip counts!

Venkatesh Gupta opened to 6,000 from the cutoff seat, and Dustin Johns made the call from the button. In the big blind, Vittario Iemolo moved all in for 9,800 total. That raised a question from Gupta about whether or not the betting was re-opened for a reraise. The floor was called over to make the ruling that the reraise was 200 chips too light to constitute a full raise, so Gupta would only have the options to call or fold.
"Can I reraise?" Johns asked, drawing a quick chuckle from the table. He called the remaining 3,800 after Gupta did, and it was three ways to the flop with Iemolo at risk.
The board ran out 
with the two live players checking it down the whole way. Gupta turned up 
, and Johns shook his head to indicate that his hand was inferior.
"Can't beat that?!" Iemolo asked, surprised. "Seven is a monster!" With that, he flipped his 
, good enough to take down the full pot and triple him up over 30,000.
Venkatesh Gupta eats chips for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
He recently opened to 6,000 from early position and Filippo Candio moved all in for 40,000 from the blinds. Gupta quickly called and the hands were tabled:
Gupta; 
Candio: 
The 
flop was a good sweat, but the 
on the turn closed the door a bit for Candio. The on the river slammed it shut, eliminating Candio from the tournament.
Gupta looks to be our chip leader with 311,000 chips.
Nathan Doudney was all in for about 60,000 before the flop against Joseph Grenon, and the two men were flipping a coin for a pretty sizable pot.
Grenon's 
was a slight favorite against Doudney's 
, and he would hold on a board of 
. That send Doudney out of the tournament, and it chipped Grenon up to... well, up to some number. He didn't have time to stack it, and we didn't have time to count it before he was involved in another pot on the very next hand.
Grenon and Casey Jarzabek took a heads-up flop of 
. Jarzabek got himself all in with just , and Grenon put him to the test with 
. The turn and river didn't change anything, and Grenon has notched back-to-back eliminations on two consecutive hands.
His chip stack has seen the benefits of those knockouts, vaulting him all the way up into second place with 252,000.
You thought we were kidding around with the chip count updates, but we're really not. Here's another smattering for your enjoyment:
"I'm not spewing," Jason Young informed us. "My jacks are just getting beat by queen-five."
Young told us that an opponent at his table open-shoved for 23,500 and that Young woke up with 
in the big blind and made the call. The flop was clean, only containing one club, but obviously the turn and river came club, club.
Young's stack is depleted a bit, he's still sitting with 106,000 chips.
Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier opened to 4,500 on the button, the small blind released and the big blind defended.
Both players checked the flop, and after the turned the big blind led for 6,300. Grospellier called and the turn brought another nine; the 
.
The player in the big blind led for 10,000 and Grospellier quickly moved all in for 31,000 more. His opponent released and Grospellier was awarded the pot increasing his stack to 62,000 chips.
