Young British pro Dan Carter has been eliminated from the event, coming over the top of a button raise from the small blind with 
before being looked up by 
. An ace high board later and he was gone.
"Pretty standard, I thought," added Carter contently as he he was guided away from the table.
The pretty green T25,000 chips have made an appearance here in the last level of the night, and they'll be colored into the field as we progress.
There are only two more chip denominations to go. We expect to see the purple T100,000 as well as the beige T250,000 chips before the week is over.
Kia Hamadani is continuing to accumulate chips after just sending another opponent to the rail.
His short-stacked opponent was all in with 
but had run into the 
of Hamadani with the board running out 
.
Hamadani is now up to 600,000.
Over at the secondary feature table, Vince Van Patten has been gradually adding to his stack over the last couple of hours, pushing up over 400,000. Meanwhile, Jean-Robert Bellande suffered a setback a short while ago, and is now down to 348,000. Karina Jett also has lost a few and is down to 105,000.
Just now a short-stacked player shoved all in for 47,000 from middle position, and Van Patten called from the cutoff. "Wow," said Jett from the button, who thought a moment and then released her hand. The blinds folded as well, and the players tabled their cards.
Van Patten showed 
and his opponent 
. The flop came 
, giving Van Patten a set while his opponent still had hopes for a straight. But the turn was the 
, filling up Van Patten and making the river no matter.
The co-host of the World Poker Tour is now up to 514,000.
The only 2009 November Niner remaining, Eric Buchman, just busted a player at his table. All the chips were in preflop, and Buchman had his opponent dominated:
Showdown
Buchman: 
Opponent: 
The board ran 
, and Buchman chipped up to 305,000.
David Chiu was down to just 16,000 when he pushed in mid position. Theo Jorgensen made the call and they were on their backs.

Jorgensen: 
Board: 
Chiu had a variety of outs on the turn, but it was not to be. Beggars can't be Chiu-sers, though, and he added $21,327 to his score for this year's Series.
Theo Tran just doubled up his "90,000 straight" stack with 
versus 
, the board pairing both players but ultimately awarding the pot to Tran.
I'm not 100 percent sure who the victim was, but my suspicion lies with bracelet winner Matt Matros as it was he who commented "nice hand" with a slight sense of disgruntlement. Either way, Matros has 250,000.
Some more player movement over at the main feature table to pass along. The table broke, with only Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi staying behind. Scott Nguyen is among the group coming over to join him.
Nguyen brought with him congratulations for Mizrachi for being one of four brothers to make the cash in this year's Main Event.
"No family can top that, baby," said Nguyen as he shook Mizrachi's hand. "Except for mine!" he added with a big laugh. "I'm talking about eight years from now," he explained, referring to his children becoming old enough to help the Nguyen family try to compete with the Mizrachis.
As far as these two competing tonight goes, Nguyen has the edge should they go the battle.
Mizrachi is still hovering around 100,000. What does Nguyen have? Let's ask him... "Six-thirty, baby." That stack of 630,000 gives him close to twice the average stack at the moment.
The player under the gun opened the pot to 14,000, and his next-door neighbor called. Vanessa Selbst decided a reraise was in order, and she squeezed 35,000 chips into the middle. The initial raiser four-bet to 88,000, and that was enough to fold the man in the middle and put the decision back to Selbst. Undeterred, she promptly five-bet shoved for 268,000 total. Her opponent hemmed and hawed and folded, and Selbst flashed her 
off-suit as she pulled in more than 100,000 chips to add to her stack.
She's at about 380,000 now.
Up and down, up and down. It's been a day of big swings for Carter Phillips. He's swinging down again after a big pot just a few moments ago. On a flop of 
, one player checked to Phillips, who made a bet of 31,000. That bet was called, taking Phillips and his opponent to the 
turn. Again the out-of-position player. But after Phillips bet 76,000, that player raised to 226,000. Phillips called.
The river was the . Phillips' opponent moved all in for more than 300,000, drawing an instant fold from Phillips. That's when the other player opened 
for a busted heart draw.
Phillips is down to about 225,000.
