A player in middle position raised to 6,500, and it folded to Joe Tehan on the button who reraised to 19,300. The small blind then reraised over the top to 43,900. The player in the big blind tanked for some time before letting her hand go. The original raiser stepped aside as well, but Tehan made the call.
Tehan showed 
and his opponent 
. (The big blind said she'd folded pocket tens.) The flop came 
and the jacks were still best, but the 
binked on the turn, pairing Tehan. The river was the 
, and another player has hit the rail in Level 14.
Tehan is now hovering around the 400,000-chip mark.
Ryan D'Angelo came into the day fourth in chips, and ten hours later, he's out. It's a brutal thing, this Main Event.
D'Angelo got the last ~120,000 of his chips into the middle with his 
flipping against David Barter's 
. D'Angelo found a pair on the flop, but it was a disaster. The board ran 
(gulp!) 
, and that's all she wrote. D'Angelo's Main Event is done with just over 900 players left, and Barter suddenly finds himself working towards the top with 780,000 or so.
From the hijack seat, a player raised to 6,500. On the button, Tom Koral reraised to 17,000. The blinds folded back to the original raiser and he reraised to 38,500. Koral flatted and the flop came down 
. The original raiser bet 36,500 and Koral folded.

Action folded to Garry "Beast Mode" Gates in the cutoff seat. He raised to 7,500. Chee Kian Chan flat-called on the button and the flop came down 
. Gates stayed on the gas and fired a bet of 9,700. Chan thought for a minute and then gave it up. With that pot, Gates moved back over 200,000 in chips.

We just decided to camp out near Patrik Antonius' table for an orbit, beginning with the great bald-headed wonder in the big blind.
Chips to start orbit: 47,400
Chips to end orbit: 39,300
It's not really all that thrilling a game when you have 13bb.
