Robert Thompson is our bubble boy after getting his last 3,100 in the middle against Rep Porter. Thompson's 
was drawing live against Porter's 
, but did not connect with the 
board.
Thompson leaves empty handed, but the remaining 36 players are guaranteed $4,743 and a shot at the bracelet .
Andrew Rosskamm is our first player to cash. We unfortunately missed the hand, but we saw him exiting the Amazon Room moments ago with his pay slip in hand.
Because you love them.

for a rivered flush and the win. Bonomo was eliminated in 35th place for $4,743.

When we reached Table 277, the board read 
, and Jesse Martin led out. Issa Tadros tried to move all in. He had more than two bets however, and was forced to pull some of his stack back. Martin put in another raise to get Tadros all in however, Tadros called, and the hands were opened.
Tadros: 
Martin: 
Tadros was in very bad shape, but the board ran 
, 
to give him a nine-high straight. Martin was not pleased with the outcome, but collected himself and told Tadros, "Nice hand."
Tadros was very giddy, stacking his new chips while sharing a short celebration with his friends on the rail.

We found James Caroll at his table raising preflop from early position. Andrey Zaichenko called the raise and both players were given a flop of 
. Carroll bet out and was quickly called by Zaichenko.
Zaichenko jumped at the chance to put some pressure on his opponent and bet out on the turn. Carroll called and the river was flipped over, where again Zaichenko bet and was summarily raised by Carroll.
After a few moments of consideration Andrey folded.
