Goldman bet fourth and fifth streets, and both opponents called the first bullet. Ellis ducked out on fifth, though, and the two live players checked through sixth. On seventh, Dehkharghani got one more bet in, and Ellis tank-folded.
Bill Chen's elimination means there are just 17 players left in the field, which brings us to the money bubble. We're currently hand for hand and the plan is to burst the bubble before calling it a night.
After being left with just 4,500, Bill Chen found himself all in and up against Huu Vinh. We're not sure of the exact order of the cards, but we do know Chen lost.
Bill Chen just played a pot for all but a few of his chips against Max Pescatori.
Chen: (x-x) / / (x)
Pescatori: (x-x) / / (x)
There was a bet and a call when we walked up on fifth street, and Pescatori asked Chen how much he had left. It wasn't much, just 14,500. Still, Pescatori checked on sixth, and Chen seemed pleased to see a free card. On seventh, Pescatori made his last bet, and Chen resigned himself to the call.
"Two pair," Pescatori said quickly.
"Good," Chen answered back even quicker. Pescatori rolled over / , and fours and deuces get the job done.
There was a big pot in the middle of the table when our attention turned to the corner table and a heads-up pot between Cyndy Violette and Perry Friedman.
Violette: (x-x) / / (x)
Friedman: (x-x) / / (x)
The only action we caught was the river action where Friedman bet and Violette tanked for ages before making the call.
Friedman turned up to make trip fives, and Violette scowled and mucked. She and Friedman have essentially traded places on the score board.
We caught the action on sixth street when Eugene Katchalov bet and Nacho Barbero raised all in. Katchalov made the call and was out in front with a pair of kings.
Barbero: / (X) /
Katchalov: / /
Barbero was unable to improve upon his pair of tens and he finished in 19th place.
