What it looks like from where we sit.
After a 600-chip bet from a player in middle position, Theo Tran bet the pot. Seated next to him, Michael Binger re-popped it and put him all in. Tran called.
Showdown:
Tran: 
Binger: 
Board: 
Tran is out of the tournament and Binger is now up to 12,000 chips.
On a flop of 
, we saw Dwyte Pilgrim call a bet of 1,000 chips from his opponent, committing nearly half of his remaining stack.
Fourth street was the 
, and the unknown opponent bet the 1,100 chips required to put Pilgrim to the ultimate test. Dwyte called all in with 
, and he was in good shape against his opponent's 
. The river was a blank 
, and that secured Pilgrim's double up, putting him on about 6,000 chips.
Joe Sebok was watching his stack dwindle for the last several, and he finally mustered the gumption to shove preflop with king-queen. He was looked up by an opponent with pocket sevens, and Seebs seemed content to race for double or nothing.
It ended up being nothing.
The board blanked off for Sebok, and he has been eliminated from our event.
When we arrive at the table the board was reading 
. Kulicki told us that he bet pot in all the streets and the opponents just called.
Dominik Kulicki tabled aces, another player tabled aces too, and Billy Kopp tabled pocket eights.
The pot went to Kopp who now has 8,000 chips, Kulicki slipped to 4,500.
Chris Moorman has just been eliminated after shoving his 
into an opponent's . The flop was a miss (
), but he actually managed to find his on fourth street. That card opened up a lot of dangerous possibilities though, and the on the river re-improved his opponent to the winning Broadway straight, signaling the end of Moorman's day.
Victor Ramdin has been a dead stack for most of the day, and he finally returned to play his remaining 375 little chips. The one hand he took was , plenty good enough to get his stack in there. Unfortunately for Ramdin, he ran into both 
and , putting him in bad shape to stay alive.
The flop was a good sweat, though, coming 
to leave Ramdin open-ended for a triple up. "Oh, I love you baby," he said to the dealer, but she would not provide him any further assistance. The turn and river came and respectively, blanks for everyone, and Ramdin's day has come to a close.
