Montgomery Misses Outs
We arrived on the scene of this hand to see a board reading 
. The hand was being played heads up between Scott Montgomery and a player in late position. The late-position player had bet 1,700 into the pot and Montgomery raised it to 5,000. The late-position player then four-bet all in for 6,300 total and Montgomery made the call.
Montgomery: 
Opponent: 
Montgomery couldn't make his straight and doubled up his opponent.
Whoops! Player is Missing
It's just come to our collective attention that the information we received earlier from Harrahs was wrong. Something got miscalculated somewhere along the line and the total number of runners for this tournament was in fact 1,941, not 1,942 as reported. It's a very small difference, but enough to throw out the payouts a little. We'll have the new payouts for your perusal shortly.
Hawrilenko Halts Peters
Matthew Hawrilenko opened the button to 725 and Donnie Peters moved all in from the big blind for 3,100. Hawrilenko made the call to put PokerNews' own Peters at risk.
Peters: 
Hawrilenko:
The board ran out 
to see Hawrilenko's queen-kicker play as Peters made his way to the rail.
Fatal Error Corrects Itself
We arrived just in time to see the cards turned over.
Jon "Fatal Error" Aguiar: 
Aguiar's opponent: 
Board: 
"Well that was a fatal error," Aguiar told his opponent as he doubled to around 40,000. His opponent didn't look like he appreciated it too much as he paid Aguiar most of his stack.
Mortensen No Longer
Carlos Mortensen's chips were difficult to count for much of the day as he was constructing a complex chip structure that we didn't dare attempt to deconstruct. However, his chips recently became much easier to count seeing as how they are all gone.
Williams Missing, Presumed Busted
All the evidence we have is that David Williams' seat was empty while a young chap at the table was raking ina large pot and chuckling; meanwhile Williams was spotted walking towards the door.
Conclusion - busto.
So Long Lindgren
No sooner had we reported on Erick Lindgren's double up than did he lose a big pot and then go on to bust the next hand.
Lindgren was in the small blind on a flop of and and called a bet of 1,100 from the player in the button. The player in the big blind came along as well.
The river was the 
and all three players checked to see the 
. Lindgren checked, the player in the big blind bet 2,700, and the dealer folded. Lindgren made the call, but mucked when the big blind showed 
.
After the hand Lindgren was down to just 300 chips. He got it all in on the next hand from the button after action was limped to him with the big blind player being the only caller.
Lindgren:
Big Blind: 
He may have been ahead at the start, but Lindgren quickly fell behind when the flop came 
. The turn and river were no help to Lindgren, falling and he shook some hands before making his exit.
Duvall Hovering
It seems a little early to us, but at certain tables it seems to have got to the point where a starting stack has become a shoving stack.
We're not sure how it came to this, but the gentleman under the gun had a 1,700 bet in front of him - we think that was his opening raise - and Jeff Duvall shoved. It folded back around to the raiser, who folded.
Duvall, who finished 42nd in the Main Event last year, is almost back up to his starting stack on 7,000.
