Opponent:
"Aces again?!?" exclaimed Sarwer as the board of didn't assist his cause. After a count down of chips it was discovered that both players had the same chip stack of 19,300 and Sarwer was sent to the rail.
"That's the eleventh time I've run into aces at the World Series this year!" contined Sarwer on his way to the exit.
With an early position shove and a call in middle position in front of him, David "donkcommited" Miscikowski decided to commit his last 17,900 from the button. His live opponent made the call and we had ourselves a three-way all in.

After a player raised to 2,600 from the cutoff, Jeff Sarwer moved all in for another 6,000. Andrew Chen thought for a moment in the small blind, then minraised. It was just about enough to put the cutoff all in, and it only took him a second or two to fold his face up. It took him even less time to jump out of his seat in frustration when Sarwer tabled and Chen showed . "You know, raise, all in, reraise," said Mr. Cutoff. "I assumed I had to be beat."
The flop came , giving Sarwer a flush draw to go with his better kicker. The turn and river were uneventful, and Sarwer more than doubled to 22,000. After doubling Jeff, Chen was left with 38,000.
An under-the-gun player raised to 3,000, and Andrew Chen called from middle position. The woman next to act called as well, and they were three-handed to a flop. The original raiser checked, and Chen bet 4,500. The next player folded, and the under-the-gun man tossed into the muck face up. Chen groaned at their folds, showing as he took a smaller-than-hoped-for pot.
They have just announced all remaining players are in the money. There was some quiet cheering and few victory dances, and things quickly got back to normal. Players are back in action, sans headphones and iPods. Expect a flurry of busts and a line at the payout desk in a few moment.s
As the players return from their break, the announcement is made that we are now on the money bubble! We need one more elimination before we're in the money and play is now hand-for-hand across all tables.
On the last hand before the break, Tom "durrrr" Dwan was involved in a three-way pot that has left his quest for his first bracelet to wait for another day.
Each player threw 2,000 into the pot to see a flop of . Action checked to the Grayson Ramage who was the preflop aggressor and he fired 3,700. Dwan added another 4,700 to the bet to force the third player from the pot, but his Ramage made the call.
The turn brought the and play checked to Dwan who moved all in. Ramage made the call.

Ramage:
Top pair, top kicker for Dwan wasn't enough as Ramage showed the overpair, and Dwan couldn't improve on the river. Dwan bubbles this event and Ramage is at 76,000 as the players head off to their break.
