Despite managing to double up early, Todd Bui was still the shortest stack in the tournament by a long shot heading into the final 18. Unfortunately it has no all come to an end for Bui in 18th place. We didn't catch the action, but we can tell you that he scored $9,481 for his effort and looked in good spirits when we spotted him on the rail.

The field has been trimmed to 18 and they are doing a complete redraw. We'll have it posted shortly.
Stud 8
Can Kim Hua has just become the first player to be eliminated on Day 3. His last hand was during a round of Stud Eight-or-Better. Kim Hua was all in during the first round of betting, completing with a 
showing. Tommy Hang was the player he would have to go up against, with his 
showing. Here is how the board ran out.
Kim Hua:   /    /  |
Hang:   /   / |
Kim Hua was in trouble most of the way, but could pick up a larger full house than Hang on seventh street. However, it wasn't mean to be as he sent his final card into the muck. We didn't catch Hang's last car, but it didn't matter because he had the full house and enough to eliminate Kim Hua in 19th place.

We caught with up the action on 5th street, Selbs bet, Bjorin raised and Selbst called. Both players checked 6th street, Selbst checked on 7th, Bjorin bet and Selbst went into then tank.
"Sorry guys, I don't play this game," Selbst said.
One of the players said, "Don't worry about it."
The Selbst mucked her hand.
