Matusow & Negreanu Ousted

Mike Matusow: {a-}{2-} / {2-}{k-}{k-}{9-} {x-}
Mike Gorodinsky: {4-}{7-} / {5-}{a-}{3-}{3-} / {8-}

A short-stacked Mike Matusow, who won his fourth bracelet earlier this series, completed all in for 3,300 only to have Mike Gorodinsky, who also won a bracelet this year, raise to 8,300. That drove out the rest of the players and the cards were turned up.

"I'm drawing completely dead," Matusow said aloud after fifth street was put out. Indeed he was. Sixth and seventh were run out for good measure as Matusow said goodbye and exited the tournament area.

Meanwhile, we also noticed that Daniel Negreanu is no longer with us, though his elimination came back in Level 9.

Daniel NegreanuLost all my chips to Brian Rast in two NLH pots. Needed to fade an Ace Ten or diamond with one to come. Ace on river I'm toast.
