Kalas Eliminates Gorodinsky

Level 13 : 2,000/4,000, 1,000 ante

Mike Gorodinsky moved all in for 48,900 from the cutoff. Kane Kalas three-bet all in over the top from the button. The blinds folded.

Both players drew one.

Mike Gorodinsky: {7-}{6-}{4-}{3-}
Kane Kalas: {7-}{6-}{5-}{2-}

Kalas went first, showing a {4-}, meaning Gorodinsky would have to draw one of the last three deuces in the deck to stay alive. He drew a {6-} to pair and was eliminated.

Both Brunsons in the Chip Lead

Level 13 : 2,000/4,000, 1,000 ante

Doyle Brunson opened to 12,000 and Paul Volpe defended his big blind. Both players drew one, but Volpe check-folded to a bet of 25,000 from Brunson.

Meanwhile, his son Todd also has a stack of over 400K and the pair appear to be the chip leaders with 28 left.

Martin Eliminated by Elias; Baxter & Merivirta Gone

Level 13 : 2,000/4,000, 1,000 ante

Jesse Martin open-jammed for 26,200 from middle position and was put at risk by Darren Elias out of the big blind. Elias stood pat, tabling a {j-}{10-}{9-}{4-}{2-} and Martin drew two to a {7-}{3-}{2-}.

The first card Martin peeled was a safe {9-}, but, unfortunately, the next was an {a-} and Martin's run for a second title came to an end.

The field also lost Billy Baxter and Jyri Merivirta from the outer tables.
