Bye, Bye, Baker

We're minus one half of our David Baker contingent. The one they call "Bakes" has been eliminated here during this level, but things haven't gotten any easier for his table.

The empty seat has just been filled by Bryan Micon. He plays a lot of mixed games, but he's still without a stud cash on his tournament stat sheet.

We didn't catch the action and aren't sure of the card order, but we do know Paul "Eskimo" Clark was just eliminated from the tournament with {5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{5-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} laid out in front of him. He took one last glance at his opponent's {6-Hearts}{5-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{K-Spades}{5-Hearts}{6-Clubs} before making a silent exit from the Amazon Room.

Recent Eliminations

The action has started to pick up and as a result players are hitting the rail. A lot of tables have broken recently and players sent to empty seats, so it's taken some time for the dust to settle. We scoured the field and have redone our lists, and unfortunately there have been some casualties. We can confirm that the following players have been eliminated from the tournament:
