We caught the action on fourth street, where Rechnitzer bet, Anderson called, and Fricke moved all in for 2,100 - less than two bets. Rechnitzer and Anderson both called, then Anderson mucked on fifth when Rechnitzer led out.
Fricke:
Rechnitzer:
Both players paired their five on sixth street, and Rechnitzer was dealt a nine on seventh. Fricke needed a card lower than an eight to win, but received a and was eliminated.
We caught up with Fricke after the hand, and he told us this.

Coming into Day 2 of Event #44, Tim Fiorvanti had just over 13,000 chips, and for three and a half levels of play it was a roller coaster. Our fellow media member saw his stack fluctuate up and down nearly every rotation, and unfortunately his attempt at WSOP gold fell short.
Fiorvanti: (X)(X) / / (X)
Roger Hairabedian: (X)(X) / / (X)
The hand was completed, and Fiorvanti called a bet from Hairabedian on fourth street. On fifth, Fiorvanti checked, tank-called a bet, and then led out on sixth, getting the rest of his chips in the middle. Hairabedian called.
Fiorvanti:
Hairabedian:
If Hairabedian bricked on seventh, there was a chance Fiorvanti could catch up. Hairabedian grabbed his last card, pulled it off the table to sweat it with his other two down-cards.
"Just give me a sweat," Fiorvanti told him.
There was no sweat, Hairabedian tabled a for an unbeatable hand. Fiorvanti turned over a just to see, then collected his things before exiting the Blue Section of the Amazon Room.

McLean Karr: (X)(X) / / (X)
Chris Viox: (X)(X) / / (X)
Karr completed, Viox called, and Karr led out on fourth and fifth street. Viox called both bets.
On sixth, Viox check-called a bet from Karr who paired, and Viox checked dark on seventh. Karr bet, and Viox instantly called.
Karr opened up for nine-eight-seven, but Viox tabled for a nine-eight-five - the best hand.
The 2011 WSOP bracelet winner added to his stack, and now has just under 60,000 chips.
