P;lay has begun, and it's not going to stop until we have a winner. Except for scheduled breaks, dinner, etc. But at the end of it all we're going to have a winner.
Good luck all!
Tryba & Tribulation
"This is me. Oh my God. Oh my God."
Such was Chris Tryba's greeting to the table as he arrived a little after the start of the event.
"The only time in two weeks there's any traffic," he continued to pant, "Oh my God I'm gonna die."
Nothing to worry about though - he'd barely missed a hand. And indeed, he wasn't even the last one in. If anyone sees Christopher George, pleas let him know he's being anted off as we type.
Robert Campbell Eliminated in 23rd Place ($5,607)
Robert Campbell: (XXX) / 
Jason Estock: 
/ 
Robert Campbell bet out on fourth street and Jason Estock called. On every subsequent street it was Estock who was the aggressor and Campbell just check-called.
At the end of it, Estock revealed the wheel for a low - and went one better for the high, with a straight to six. Campbell mucked, and was down to just 30,000.
A few hands later and Campbell got the last of his chips in with a low draw which never came in. Jonathan Bascom's two pair, aces and deuces, scooped the pot, and Campbell hit the rail.
Panic Over
Breathe a sigh of relief, Christopher George fans - your boy is here. He was much cooler - in every sense of the word - upon his arrival than Chris Tryba was, too.
Bonnie Leinhos Eliminated in 22nd Place ($5,607)
These players must have put Red Bull on their Weetabix this morning instead of milk, as within just a few hands, we had a four-way pot on the near table with two all-ins!
Both Bonnie Leinhos and Allen Bari moved all in on third street (the latter for 36,000), whilst Kevin MacPhee and David Warga proceeded to battle it out over the side pot.
Leinhos: 
/
Bari: 
/
MacPhee: {mucked on seventh}/
Warga: 
/
MacPhee check-called bets on all further streets, but folded in frustration on seventh. Warga announced aces and an eight low, whilst Bari flipped two pair to take the high. Leinhos, meanwhile, could but look at her cards in the hope they changed, but they didn't, and she was gone in 22nd.
Bari - 80,000
MacPhee - 75,000
Warga - 285,000
Thomas Hunt Eliminated in 21st Place ($5,607)
We didn't see the hand, but we saw Thomas Hunt and his Hawaiian shirt get up from the table, his chips all gone, and stand in the aisle looking a bit lost. Eventually a passing TD took pity on him and gave him a payout slip. He duly trudged off to collect his money.
Richburg Poor, But Improving
James Richburg was all in by the time we arrived, and up against Allen Bari. Bari made two pair, threes and sixes, and Richburg made a low meaning that they chopped it up and Richburg survived to play another hand.
The next hand though he got it all in again against Bari - and once again they chopped. Richburg remained on 40,000.
The hand after that though, and Richburg managed to increase his stack significantly, to 60,000. With his cards reading 
and Maxwell Troy's cards reading 
on fifth street, Troy gave it up and Richburg took the pot without a showdown.
