We can infer that Ryan Julius was the preflop raiser, but we didn't join the action until the 
flop was already out on the table. Bertrand Grospellier checked, and Julius continued out with 14,500. Steve Landfish was the third man in the pot, and his raise to 40,000 forced ElkY out with a quickness. Julius was not so easily pacified, though. After a moment, he potted all in for 131,500.
Landfish spent a couple minutes in the tank, too. He asked for a count on Julius' chips, then eventually surrendered.
Julius dragged the pot, and he's doing some good work lately. We had him at his starting stack of 30,000 not that long ago, and he's now managed to work that up to about 200,000 total.
Paul Volpe just doubled up through Shaun Deeb in the very first hand after the break. The action was all pre flop with Volpe going with 
and Deeb fancying his 
. The board ran out 
and Volpe was up to 65,000.

River:
The fifth spade on the river and Klodnicki had doubled up.
Sorel Mizzi has been eliminated. He put his tournament on the line with 
and his opponent snapped him of holding 
. The board was 
and Mizzi was shown the door.
We were unsure of the conquerors name and so we asked him.
"I have been playing the world series for 35-years and you don't know my name? It's Tommy…Tommy Vinas…like the planet."
It could have been worse...it could have been Uranus.
We joined the action on a flop of 
and a trio of players in the pot. Jason Senti bet 8,600 from the small blind, Chris Klodnicki called from the big blind as did Andy Frankenberger in position. The turn card was the 
and Senti fired his second barrel worth 21,400.
"I raise pot," said Klodnicki.
Frankenberger's hat came off and his hands flew into the air. He eventually folded and it was Senti's turn to go through the wringer. Senti took a good three to four minutes before folding and Klodnicki took down the pot.
Chris Moore opened to 6,000 from the cutoff, and Shaun Deeb three-bet to 16,500 next door. Paul Volpe looked like he was thinking sinister thoughts, but he eventually surrendered his big blind. Moore stacked out reraising chips, though, and he made it 41,000 total. Deeb's response was a pot-raise, and that resulted in Moore getting all in for about 160,000 or so. It was a big coin flip.
Showdown
Moore: 
Deeb: 
Deeb is running good today, and his jacks were no match for Moore. The board came out 
, and Moore has been eliminated. With that pot, Deeb is now dangerously close to 400,000 chips and a force to be reckoned with.
We joined the action on a flop of 
and the two players in the pot were Daniel Weinman (HJ) and Steve Landfish (BB). Weinman had a bet of 9,000 in front of him and Landfish had check-raised to 25,500. The action was on Weinman and he raised it to 44,000 (leaving 21,700 behind).
Weinman and Landfish then entered into a diatribe of conversation prompting Phil Ivey to shout out, "bring back the internet." That remark prompted Landfish to eventually fold and Weinman showed the for the draw.
