Images of the Action
Akkari Out
Stud
A short-stacked Andre Akkari has been eliminated during a hand of Stud-8 against Jordan Siegel. Akkari could only managed a pair of aces as Siegel made queens and sevens to scoop the pot and send the Team PokerStars Pro to the rail.
Seidel Busto
Stud
Erik Seidel was all in on sixth street. His opponent turned up 
, trip deuces, then caught a 
on the river. We weren't able to take down Seidel's cards before he sighed, said, "OK," and mucked. Whatever he had, it wasn't enough to stave off elimination.
Recent Eliminations
Mike Matusow and Steve Zolotow are both out of the tournament. Matusow made his stand in razz, taking A-2 / J up against Jason Walsh's 5-4 / 7. Matusow finished with a king-jack, which was definitely no good against Walsh's 7-5.
Zolotow's stand came in the stud round. His board came 
and a pair card for a final hands of kings up. That was no good against David Singer's 
, aces and treys.
"Good luck, everyone," said Zolotow. "Play well."
JJ Razzes AA
Razz
Catching the action on fifth street, John Juanda fired a bet and Andre Akkari raised it up. Juanda called and then again on sixth, before Akkari fired a bet on the river. Juanda announced a raise and Akkari called.
Juanda: (
) / 
Akkari: (
) / 
Akkari showed a seventy-six but Juanda had rivered a seventy-five to take it down. Akkari shook his head as he slipped to 9,500 with Juanda now up to 37,000.
Kristy Gazes Eliminated
Omaha-8
Kristy Gazes didn't have a ton of chips to start the day. Now she has none after a hand of Omaha Hi/Lo gone bad. Gazes led out on a flop of 
and was raised by Loi Tran. Gazes three-bet, then called all in after Tran four-bet. Gazes tbled unimproved aces, 
. Tran flopped a set of kings, 
. The turn and river bricked out. Gazes is gone.
Bloch Out
Andy Bloch's day never really got going and he recently saw his last chips go into the middle and never return.
After losing a big pot in Stud-8 with aces up against a low draw that made a runner-runner flush, Bloch was down to his last 2,400 as the table entered the round of hold'em.
With a raise under the gun, Bloch was next to speak and he committed his last 2,400 chips. His opponent called.
Bloch:
Opponent: 
The board bricked 
and Bloch was sent to the rail.
The Great Sports Debate
It's a banner day for sports watching with the World Cup roups tage matches continuing and the final round of the U.S. Open taking place. Table 358 got into a debate about which sports make for the best television.
"I'd rather watch mini-golf than soccer," said Cory Zeidman.
Matt Savage agreed. "I was listening to golf on the radio on the way over here and it was more exciting than the World Cup."
Michael Greco took the conversation in a different direction. "I'd rather watch beach volleyball than American football."
The conversation drifted to the ears of Daniel Negreanu and Steve Zolotow at a neighboring table. Zolotow, chock full of opinions today, said, "Any sport where the score is 1-1 after three hours is," and then made a thumbs-down motion.
