We caught up with Erik Cajelais' table with one player all-in holding 
and coming up against the 
of Cajelais.
By the time the 
board had run out, Cajelais had sent the player home, adding plenty of chips to his stack.

We caught up with the action just as John Dolan was getting all in for his last few thousand on a 
flop against another player.
Dolan: 
for top pair.
Opponent: 
for a set of twos.
Dolan got up from his seat after seeing the bad news, knowing he was drawing quite slim to a runner-runner draw.
The turn and 
river was too little too late for Dolan and he was sent to the rail.

When we arrived at Shawn Buchanan's table, he and one opponent were already taking to a 
flop and there was well over 1,500 in the pot. Buchanan's opponent was in the big blind position and checked over to Buchanan, who bet 800. With a call from the player, a 
turn would see both players check.
The 
on the river would see Buchanan's opponent lead out for 1,600. Buchanan thought hard, eventually flicking out the call. He would regret it though, immediately mucking when his opponent turned over 
.

It was folded around to Daniel Negreanu on the button, who announced he was all in for his last 4,425. Negreanu's opponent directly behind him in the small blind called to put him at risk and the big blind folded.
Negreanu: 
Opponent: 
"Eight or a nine!" Negreanu said.
The flop came 
.
"I missed. Just put an ace out there and I'll go home," Negreanu said upon seeing the flop.
Turn:
"Or a nine - I'll take that!"
River: 
, leaving Negreanu with two-pair for the double up.
Negreanu has more breathing room, but is still short, however, with 10,000.

Level 7
: 200/400, 50 ante
All the tables from the Red Section have been broken. The next section to break will be the Bronze Section.
Phil Hellmuth has been dozing in and out at his table(s) for much of the tournament as a result of being awake for over 27 hours now. According to his Twitter feed, he was up all last night playing a variation of Chinese Poker.
phil_hellmuth phil_hellmuth Been up 27 hrs straight (played Chinese "Roll your own" all night). I'm gonna enter the WSOP $5k buy in NLHoldem + win it for the Troops!
June 28 2012
In a recent hand, a player at Hellmuth's table moved all in and action folded around to Hellmuth, who had been napping in his chair. He flung in a call from the small blind, but was unaware of the all-in player.
Oops.
Hellmuth then mucked and forfeited his 400 chips that were already committed to the middle.
Hellmuth is sitting on 14,000 at the moment and will likely need some sort of pick-me-up if he wants to make a run at this thing.
