Akenhead & Zolotow Are Out; Heinz and Reynolds Moving Upwards

Pius Heinz is making waves

There are seventy-eight players left with forty-minutes to go before the dinner break and here is a news update for you.

The big success story of the level has been William Reynolds. Reynolds has over $1.5 million in live tournament earnings and has so far cashed in 3 events this Summer. Reynolds is currently sitting on a stack of 500,000.

Another shaker during the previous few levels is our World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event Champion. Pius Heinz is sitting on 300,000 chips despite just doubling-up Joseph Gualtieri {A-Clubs} {J-Clubs} v {9-Hearts} {9-Clubs}.

We reported earlier how James Akenhead had doubled Alessandro Speranza, well Akenhead is now out. He got it in with {10-} {10-} v {J-} {J-} of Daichi Oda and Oda's hand stayed strong. Joining Akenhead on the rail is our two-time WSOP bracelet holder Steve Zolotow. We didn't see how the action unfurled but we do know that Zolotow held {K-Clubs} {J-Clubs} and Steve Schwann held {A-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} to eliminate him.

Finally, Fernando Brito has doubled up to 108,000 after winning a flip {9-} {9-Diamonds} v {A-Hearts} {J-Hearts}.
