Phil Hellmuth asked us if Event 16: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em - Six-Handed had started yet, and we promptly informed him that the final table was set and taking place at the ESPN Main Stage.
"Did Mikey make it?" he asked inquiring about his friend Mike "The Mouth" Matusow. We had to inform him of the unfortunate news that Matusow had busted in eighth place, two spots shy of the final table. "Damn, I just tweeted at him good luck," Hellmuth said.
"He might think that's a needle," he add under his breath.
phil_hellmuth phil_hellmuth Go @themouthmatusow go! Go Mikey go! Take this down and show the world your NLHold'em skills! 9 left. GL to @MattGlantz as well...

We caught the action on fifth street when Michael Rosenberg tossed out a bet and received a call from David Williams. The latter took the lead on sixth and proceeded to check-call a bet, doing the same on seventh. Rosenberg then rolled over a to take down the pot and leave Williams with just 1,200.
Williams: (x-x) / / (x)
Rosenberg: /
Not long after, Williams was eliminated:

Moments after the 2004 World Series of Poker Main Event runner-up exited the Amazon Room, the champion was right behind him.
Greg Raymer: /
Joe Tehan: /
Raymer completed with an ace showing, Tehan raised with a three, and Raymer re-raised. Tehan reluctantly called. Raymer led out on fourth street, Tehan called, and on fifth, Raymer led out again. Tehan raised, putting Raymer all in, and Raymer called.
Raymer:
Tehan:
Raymer was dealt a king on fifth, giving him no help, and Tehan received a five, giving him a seventy-five low, and the lead in the hand.
"I really thought I was going to win this hand," Raymer sighed.
Tehan immediately flipped his down card face up on seventh, and the did not improve his hand. Raymer had outs, but another wasn't one of them, and he was eliminated.
JoeTehan Joseph Just busted Raymer from the razz event. Good guy, good player, and gives out pretty cool fossils! http://t.co/3WrDs0do

When and how Tommy Vedes was eliminated escaped us, but we can confirm that the chip leader at the start of the day has been eliminated. A quick check of his Twitter turns up the following explanation:

After Phil Hellmuth completed with an , Scott Clements raised his . That point action on Xuan Liu, who was showing , and she made the call. Hellmuth did the same and it was three-way action to the turn. Clements fired another bet, both his opponents called, and then it went check-check after Liu took the lead on fifth. This opened the door for Clements to bet for a third time, and again both his opponent called.
Liu kept the lead on sixth, but this time instead of checking she bet. Hellmuth got out of the way and Clements called.
Liu: / /
Clements: / /
Hellmuth: (x-x) /
Little did Liu know that Clements had made a wheel, and she proceeded to bet her last 5,900 on seventh. Clements made the call and took down the pot, eliminating Liu in 33rd place on the money bubble.
