Action was after the draw with John Power showing {10-}{8-}{4-}{3-}{2-}. Ryan Riess had {7-}{6-}{4-}{2-} in front of him and was sweating his final card.

According to him it was 50:50, and he turned over the {6-} to pair. "It wasn't 50:50," he said as he was eliminated, heading quickly to rebuy with just under ten minutes left in the level.

Porter Outdrawn; Shak and Sinclair Hit the Rail

Level 6 : 150/300, 75 ante

Rep Porter open-jammed with his last 1,150 from under the gun and found a caller on the button. Porter stood pat and tabled a {j-}{8-}{6-}{4-}{3-} as his opponent turned over a {6-}{4-}{3-}{2-} tossing a {k-}. The dealer gave Porter's opponent a new card which turned out to be an {8-} giving him the best hand and Porter was eliminated.

Dan Shak and Jack Sinclair were seen leaving their tables around the same time.

Bellande on How to Make Money at 2-7 No Limit

Level 6 : 150/300, 75 ante

Jean-Robert Bellande has already made himself comfortable at his table, seated alongside two-time bracelet winner Chris Bjorin and three-time bracelet winner and defending champion in this event Frank Kassela.

"I once played with Puggy Pearson," said Bellande, "And he had this trick on how to make money playing 2-7 No-Limit Lowball."

Bellande adopted an accent to imitate the Hall of Famer.

"Puggy said 'You show them the {5-}{6-}{7-}{8-},' that's what you do" said Bellande, "Then you make a shit load of money!"

"If you see someone play that once, you want to play with them forever!"
