Johnny Lodden got his last 73,000 in the middle three ways. Fred Bell had him covered by 9,000, and Mark Tyson had them both covered several times over.
Lodden: 
Bell: 
Tyson:

board. He tripled up to 228,000. Bell hit the rail, and Tyson was left with 240,000.
Every once in a while we saw two people eliminated on the same hand, but it's incredibly rare to see three or more people eliminated. Steve Billirakis just accomplished that feat in one fell swoop.
Action started in early position with Bernard Lee, who moved all in for 64,00. Billirakis called that raise before Steven Hartstein re-shovedfrom the cutoff for 131,000. That second raise folded the button, but small blind Feming Chan then became the third player to move all in when he shoved for 350,000. Billirakis, the only active player left in the hand, pondered his decision for several minutes before finally calling Chan's raise, creating a four-way pre-flop showdown.
Lee: 
Billirakis: 
Hartstein: 
Chan: 
Billirakis actually had the best hand with a pair of jacks. He needed to dodge two overcards, diamonds, and any ten. Billirakis actually flopped a full house, 
, but Lee and Chan both had draws to bigger full houses. Neither hit as the turn and river came and 
to knock all three of Lee, Hartstein and Chan out of the tournament.
Kevin MacPhee open-shoved his last 21,000 from middle position and Giovanni Rizzo made an isolation reraise to get himself heads up with a chance to eliminated MacPhee.

, and MacPhee doubled up to about 65,000. It didn't last long, however.
A few hands later, Thomas Denny limped first in from the small blind, and MacPhee shipped it in from the big. Denny quickly called with

The cutoff seat raised to 19,000 and Ronnie "Ronasty" Bardah called from the button. Patrick Hartnett called from the small blind and the flop came down 
.
Action checked to Bardah and he fired 26,000. Both opponents folded and Bardah scooped to pot to move to 1,001,000 in chips.
We arrived on a flop. It didn't look like much, but it was enough to get all of Philip Lowery's 220,000 in the middle against Walter Davis. Lowery held 
for top two, but it was in bad shape as Davis showed 
for bottom set. His set turned into quads with the on the turn. Lowery was drawing dead, and Davis is up to 510,000.
The WSOP-Circuit star Dwyte Pilgrim made his last stand recently. After Nathan Meyvis opened for 21,000, Pilgrim moved all in for 115,000. Jan Boye, sitting on the button, made an easy call with . That was incredibly bad news for Pilgrim, who didn't even have an over-card with his 
. An over-card would have been useful on a board of 
. There was no joy for Pilgrim. He saddled up and headed off to the cage after saying, "Good game guys," to his table.
We missed the preflop action, but we walked up in time to see Danny Mizrachi betting 20,000 on a flop of . Denis Pisarev made the call, and he called another 22,000 on the turn. The river brought the
