Silver Section Round-Up: O'Dea Eliminates Ellwood; Jaka Germinates

With forty-minutes of the penultimate level remaining let's give you an update of what is going on in the Silver Section of the Brasilia Room. There are 337 players left and the name of Jack Ellwood is not among them. Ellwood reached superstar status in Europe when he won several major online tournaments in one weekend. He has followed up that technological success with some hard work in the brick and mortar world where he has earned over $200,000 including 5 World Series of Poker (WSOP) cashes. Ellwood found himself short and made his move with {A-Diamonds} {4-Spades} in the cutoff. Former November Niner Eoghan O'Dea made the call from the big blind holding {10-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} (shows you how short Ellwood got) and the board ran out {10-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds} {J-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} to eliminate Ellwood just short of the money.

In other news Jared Hamby now has 90,000, Nicholas Batt has 78,000, Faraz Jaka has 81,000 but leading the Silver Section is Jordan Cristos with 95,000 chips.
