We missed the action but we saw Keith Ferrera walking towards the payout desk. The field has been trimmed to 18 and will have a complete redraw. We'll have it posted shortly.

Matros Earns Much Needed Double Up

Matt Matros just doubled through Ramey Shalo. The board was {7-Hearts} {8-Spades} {8-Hearts} {4-Hearts} {9-Diamonds}, Matros held pocket tens and Shalo tried for the knockout holding {A-Spades} {4-Clubs}.

Goodarzy No Good

[Removed:503] has recently slipped to sit as the shortest stack in the room. We didn't catch all the action on the hand that left him crippled, but we did see a board showing {7-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{6-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} and Gulyy Yury raking in the huge pot with {8-Spades}{8-Clubs} for a rivered set.

Matros Hanging In

Matt Matros is one of the shortest stacks in the room coming into the last two levels of the night, but he is doing all he can to make that change. Matros recently open shoved and picked up the blinds and antes and then three-bet shoved on Mike Matusow and picked up a few extra chips.

The player we've been referring to as "Ctrl V" has been eliminated. Stepan Dzhigarkhanyan all in preflop and Elio Cohen called after a count.

Elio Cohen: {A-Spades} {Q-Spades}
Dzhigarkhanyan: {6-Spades} {6-Hearts}

The board ran {9-Spades} {9-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} and Cohen earned the knockout.

Matt Gets Matty's Chips

Matt Glantz is one of the new chip leaders

When we came to Matt Glantz's table we noticed that he was all-in holding {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs} against Matty Levine's {7-Clubs}{7-Spades}. We didn't catch the action, but according to the table, Levine opened the button to 16,000. Glantz was in the big blind and three-bet to 41,000. Levine then four-bet all in, having his opponent covered. It's safe to assume Glantz snapped him off with his aces.

Glantz's stack was 334,500 and that would be what Levine owed Glantz as the board ran out {j-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. With that, Glantz is one of out chip leaders, while Levine is needing some help.
