Too Many Players in Today's Event?

Level 3 : 50/100, 0 ante

The voice in the sky just had a bit of fun. An announcement rang out in the Rio, "Dealers we still have about 100 players waiting to sit down. Do your jobs and eliminate some players so we can get them in." Everyone had a nice chuckle, and the dealers will certainly do their bests to fulfill the request.

Who's in the Black in Black?

Here's a cross-section of chip counts from the Black section of the Pavillion Room for you:

Fossilman Busts Affleck

Level 3 : 50/100, 0 ante

We caught the action on the flop of {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}. Greg Raymer had called his opponent's bet of 450, and action was on Matt Affleck. After about 15 seconds of thinking, Affleck moved all in for 3100 total. The opponent folded, and Raymer called the bet.

Raymer: {a-Spades}{2-Spades}
Affleck: {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs}

Raymer said he thought Affleck was on a flush draw, but was not happy to see that Affleck had a pair for more outs. Raymer faded them all, however, as the turn and river came the {a-Diamonds} and the {8-Diamonds}. Raymer collected the chips and now has around 14,000.
