After a topsy-turvy day, Jimmy Fricke has finally succumbed. He was all in with 
against Cameron McKinley's 
on a 
flop, the 
turn and 
river meant both made two pair but McKinley's queen-kicker played. The 2011 O8 massacre continues...
We caught up with the action three handed on a 
board. John Mccaffrey checked and Vladimir Shchemelev bet. Guillaume Rivet came in with a raise and Mccaffrey check raised. Shchemelev called as did Rivet who was all in.
The turn was the 
and now Mccaffrey was all in. All three players turned up their hands.
Mccaffrey: 
Shchemelev: 
Rivet: 
The river was the 
to give Shchemelev the best two pair and eliminate both players. He was up to 560,000 after the hand.

Down to the nitty gritty
Ryan Lenaghan raised preflop from UTG and Matthew Waxman made it three bets from the hijack. Kostas Kathalakis cold-called from the cutoff and Lenaghan aslo called.
Waxman fired all the way of a 
board with the other two players calling him down until the river where they both mucked. Waxman is up to 610,000.
Daniel Smith was involved in a three way pot with Humberto Brenes and Michael Deveronica with the board reading . Brenes checked, Deveronica bet and Smith raised, Brenes folded and Deveronica called.
Deveronica then check-called a double bet on the 
turn, before setting Smith all in on the river. Smith called with 
but found he was behind to Deveronica's 
which had backdoored into a boat.
Just twelve remain.
We just had a monster pot between three of our chip leaders. Matthew Waxman raised on the button and Francesco Barbaro called in the small blind. Vladimir Shchemelv three bet from the big blind and the other two players called.
The flop came 
and Barbaro led out. He got raised by Shchemelev and Waxman threw in a three bet. Barbaro got out of the way and Shchemelev made the call. The turn went check bet call as did the 
river. Waxman held 
for a flush and the high while Shchemelev had 
for the low.
Fabrizio Gonzalez is on the brink of elimination with just 1,000 left. He limp-called blind on blind against Cameron McKinley and fired the turn and river of a 
board after both players checked the flop. McKinley called both bets and showed 
for a baby flush to win.
The next hand Gonzalez raised the button and McKinley made it three bets in the small blind. McKinley then bet every street of the board and Gonzalez called him down with 
only to find he was being scooped by his opponent's 
for two pair with an A-6 low.
Fabrizio Gonzalez was down to a single 1,000 chip and a chair. He threw that chip in under the gun and Cameron McKinley called. Ryan Lenaghan also called but Richard Monroe raised it up and both players called. The flop rolled out and Monroe bet. Lenaghan called and the action went the same on the turn. The story was the same when the hit the river and the players showed their cards.
Monroe: 
Lenaghan: 
Gonzalez: 
Gonzalez was able to survive by chopping the main pot with his two pair against the other players' lows and was up to three 1,000 chips after the hand.
Those three chips were at risk the very next hand when Gonzalez was the big blind. Travis Pearson raised it up and Kostas Kalathakis made the call from the small blind. The flop was 
and went check bet call. The action was the same on the turn as well as on the river. Pearson and Kalathakis showed and 
. Everyone would now have a sweat as Gonzalez turned over his cards one by one. In the end, he was only able to muster for one pair and the worst low. His hand was bested by two pair and the nut low and Gonzalez hit the payout desk.
The players are on their first 20-minute break of the day.
