Phil Galfond and Jonathan Duhamel Are Out

Two top quality players have left the competition meaning we have 306 players in the field.

World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet winner Phil Galfond has been eliminated by Padraig Parkinson. Galfond found himself extremely short before getting his short change in the middle on a flop of {K-Diamonds} {J-Spades} {6-Hearts}.

Parkinson{K-Clubs} {J-Clubs} {J-Hearts} {7-Clubs}
Galfond{8-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} {2-Hearts} {6-Spades}

Board: {K-Diamonds} {J-Spades} {6-Hearts} {A-Hearts} {4-Diamonds}

Set over set and Galfond was out.

Then our former 2010 WSOP Main Event Champion Jonathan Duhamel was eliminated by Fabrice Soulier. The money went into the middle on the turn with {9-} {8-} {3-} {K-Spades} showing on the board. Duhamel had {8-} {8-} {2-} {2-} for the set and Soulier had {10-} {7-} {6-} {x-} for the straight-draw. The {10-} arrived on the river, completing the straight for the Frenchman, and Duhamel was out.
