The more attentive reader will notice that the bulk of the chips are on Table 311. We'll be watching very closely...
Folowing the exit of Hani Awad, we are now down to three tables. Furthermore we have reached our second pay jump - everyone left in is now guaranteed $4,241.
Barbara Lewis got her last 1,600 in on third street and her pair of eights stayed ahead all the way up until seventh street, when Said Elsanafiri's final down card gave him a pair of queens.
Elsanafiri claimed Lewis' tournament scalp and moved up to 70,000.
Scott Seiver bet on streets three through five, and Owais Ahmed called all the way. Ahmed was first to act on sixth and he checked; Seiver checked behind.
Ahmed check-called on seventh street and turned over a six-high straight. Seiver could only boast two pair, and the former chip leader dropped again to just 23,000 - only a few players are now shorter than he is. Ahmed meanwhile increased his stack to a rather healthier 61,000.
Jon Turner completed before Michael Rocco put in a raise. Turner made the call and then again for the last 600 of Rocco's chips on fourth street. The boards ran out:
Turner: () / / ()
Rocco: () / / ()
Turner started out with split kings and had a ton of outs on the river to win the pot but Rocco's two pair held to take it down and double to 28,000. Turner slips to 51,000.
