Madsen Busts, Greestein Flourishes

Level 6 : 100/200, 25 ante

Jeff Madsen never managed to recover from running into aces and is no longer competing for a share of the $10 million+ prize pool.

Still in contention are the likes of Barry Greenstein, 2007 WSOP Main Event seventh-place finisher Lee Childs, and Grayson Ramage.

Baumstein Bossing

Level 6 : 100/200, 25 ante

Scott Baumstein is up to 17,100 thanks in part to a hand that took place in Orange section a short while ago.

The action passed around to Baumstein in the small blind and he raised to 500. The big blind called and it was off to the {2-Hearts}{J-Spades}{5-Spades} flop. Baumstein made a continuation bet of 325 only to see his opponent raise to 925. Baumstein called.

Both players checked the {6-Diamonds} turn before Bumstein led for 1,375 on the {10-Clubs} river. The big blind folded and Baumstein added more chips to his ever-growing stack.

Do You Know Wendeen Eolis?

Level 7 : 150/300, 25 ante

The name may not necessarily ring a bell to everyone, but Wendeen Eolis was in fact the first ever woman to cash in a Main Event of the World Series Of Poker. She is also in today's second flight of the Millionaire Maker and enjoys the company of George Danzer one seat over. Here is to hope for another deep run :)

No Final Number Yet

Level 7 : 150/300, 25 ante

The screens show 7977 entries but that should be seen as unofficial number while the staff is still double checking everything to make sure we have the correct number. Will we crack the 8,000 mark? Before the end we shall know so stay tuned.
