Stud Hi-Low
We are down to 49 players after losing Ismael Bojang and Marco Johnson. We missed the elimination of the German in 51st place, but Johnson we saw all in against two players in a stud hi-low hand.
He held aces on third and still could not win the pot, as Matt Lefkowitz hit two pair on seventh.

"How the #### can I lose this hand?" Johnson asked towards the table and then left the tournament area quickly.

Stud Hi-Low
Thomas Beckstead was the extreme short stack among the remaining 49 players; in fact, he had just 800 going into the last hand. Nearly all of that — 700 to be exact — was in for the ante, meaning he had a single grey T100 chip behind. It would go in on the hand when he was dealt the . Humberto Brenes had brought it in with a completion with the , and the rest of the field folded.

Beckstead was guaranteed to stay alive on fifth street as he had an unbeatable low, but he was looking for a high to scoop. He ended up with a measly ace-king high, but much to his delight it was enough to beat Brenes' queen high.
Beckstead has staved off elimination, at least for a bit.

Omaha Hi-Low
Thomas Beckstead has been working with a short stack here on the bubble, and while he has been at risk several times, he refuses to go down.
Most recently he raised to 6,000 under the gun and encouraged Fu Wong to three-bet, which he did. Action folded back to Beckstead and he got all in for 9,500 total. Wong called the additional 500 and the cards were tabled.
Beckstead: 
Wong: 
The board ran out and the two spilt the pot as Wong had the high and Beckstead the low.
