Darin Stout found a much-needed double when he pushed his stack in the middle in response to Mustapha Kanit's raise to 40,000. Kanit called. Stout held 
and Kanit flipped over 
. The board ran out a harmless (for the tens) 
and Stout started stacking chips.
In the next hand, Edison Shields bet 70,000 on the flop with the board reading 
. Both players checked the 
turn, and the river came 
. Edison check-called Kanit's bet of 135,000 while sighing "ahhhh, I'm so sick," seemingly knowing he was beat. Kanit showed 
for two pair and Shields mucked. He is sitting very short again despite his recent double-up.

flop brought his set. The board ran out then , and Shields keeps finding ways to stay alive.

and Kanit continued for another 40,000. Divkovic called and the turn card was the . Kanit bet again, this time to 70,000, and Divkovic gave up.
Level 23
: 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Play has started out fairly tight in the first two levels today. Even with the double bustout early in the second level, players seem to be playing cautiously.
Perhaps the huge pay jump between busting early and a deep final table run is engrained in the minds of the players.

Johnny "World" Hennigan has just scored a double knockout. He had raised to 32,000 from middle position and Gregg Merkow pushed all in from the cutoff. Ron Mcmillen got involved when he pushed his shorter stack all in to call, and things got scary for them when Hennigan called with the largest stack, covering them both.

The cowboys held and Hennigan scored the double-knockout, sending Merkow and Mcmillen to the cashier and we have our unofficial final table of ten players.
