Level 12
: 600/1,200, 0 ante
Unfortunately we missed the hands, but both Brandon Cantu and Greg Mueller have been eliminated from the tournament.
We found Justin Bonomo at Table 277 just a moment ago raising in the cut-off position preflop. He was soon reraised by the Small Blind and after a series of raises the betting was maxed.
On the 
flop both players continued to raise each other until the Small Blind was all-in. Cards were flipped at it was Bonomo's 
that was ahead. The Small Blind held 
and was looking for another nice to win the pot. A turn 
and a river were no help, and Bonomo eliminated another player.

Ever playful Sam Grizzle put out a bet preflop on the button and was able to get Shannon Shorr to come along in the big blind. A flop of 
rolled off and Shorr wasted no time check-raising Grizzle. A bemused Grizzle looked at Shorr and stated "is this revenge of the nerds?" and then went on to make the call.
The turn brought another bet from Shorr and a raise from Grizzle. After some contemplation Shorr put out the white flag and folded.
