The Plan for Ten to Nine

Level 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

There are just two tables remaining in the Bronze Section of the Brasilia Room. Once those tables are broken only Silver and Gold will remain.

From there, as players are eliminated each table will go from ten-handed to nine-handed. Once all tables are at nine then they will break from there. But more than likely some tables will end the evening ten-handed.

Fist Bumps for the Table

Level 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

We told you about David "Doc" Sands' elimination a little while ago. Well the player that called the clock after 20 seconds was just eliminated.

We've never seen a table happier to see a player go. The remaining players all fist bumped each other and the player that knocked him out got a special congratulations.

Barnhart Soars to the Lead

Level 10 : 400/800, 100 ante
Sam Barnhart has the lead at the moment.
Sam Barnhart has the lead at the moment.

A player at Sam Barnhart's table just recounted a hand to us that gave Barnhart a mountain of chips. A player in the cutoff min-raised to open and Barnhart called out of the small blind.

The flop came {Q-} {Q-} {2-}, Barnhart bet and his opponent called. The turn came {4-}, Barnhart bet and his opponent called. The river came a blank and Barnhart bet 3/4 of his stack. His opponent insta-shoved and Barnhart snap-called.

Opponent: {2-} {2-}
Barnhart: {Q-} {2-}

The both flopped a full house but Barnhart had the better of it.
