We are just three eliminations away from moving to the ESPN set with our unofficial final table. Here are the competitors chip stacks as they near that achievement
Lauri Varonen moved all in from early position for his final 140,000. Eric Froehlich was on the button and made the call to put Varonen at risk. The blinds folded and the hands were revealed.
Varonen: 
Froehlich: 
The board ran out 
and Varonen hit the rail. Froehlich, on the other hand, is now at 1.55 million.

The fifteen minute hand (maybe more) is finally over and it results in Isaac Baron making his exit.
From middle position, Adam Geyer raised to 43,000 and Isaac Baron flatted from the button. The two players aw the 
flop heads up and Geyer led out for 68,000 which Baron called.
The turn was the 
and this time Geyer checked. Baron bet 86,000 and Geyer tried to make it 168,000. That raise was not a full raise though and the dealer made him make it 172,000 for a min-raise. Baron made the call and the river was the 
. Geyer wasted little time announcing he was all in as he slid in a stack of green chips worth 25,000 each.
Baron, who had only 300,000 left hit the tank hard. He spent at least 10 to 15 minutes thinking taking us almost a full nine minutes into the dinner break. Finally and without warning, he said, "call." Geyer tabled 
and Baron mucked.
That gives Geyer the second place stack as we head to dinner with about 1.6 million chips.
We're on our dinner break, and the clock has ticked down by about six minutes. There's still one hand in progress though, a big pot between Adam Geyer and Isaac Baron. Details forthcoming, if this hand ever ends.
We're four levels into the day, and it's dinner time. The players have an hour to chow, and the action will resume around 8:10 P.M.
Ciao!
Dylan Wilkerson got the last of his chips into the middle preflop with {Ag}

The dealer had other ideas, though, running out a 
board to give the pot to Geyer. With it comes the elimination of Wilkerson in 16th place, good for $31,679. And a chip increase to 1.15 million.
We caught the action on a board that read 
with what appeared to already be around 500,000 in the pot. Darryl Ranconi was in the small blind position and checked to Lauri Varonen who was on the button. Varonen bet 300,000 and Ranconi made the call. Varonen tabled 
but it was no good. Ranconi had

He now has 2.25 million chips while Varonen is down to 140,000.
Adam Geyer opened to 42,000, and Mike Fosco reraised to 92,000 out of position. Geyer shoved in for 388,000 total, and Fosco made the call to put his opponent at risk.
