Three In, One Out

Level 5 : 250/500, 75 ante

Andrew Kelsall: {j-}{7-}{8-}{j-}{a-}{4-}
Opponent: {4-}{5-}{4-}{8-}{7-}{3-}{k-}
Note: Board order unclear

Andrew Kelsall was all in and at risk against an opponent. Kelsall was still drawing live to a better low and was sweating his final card.

"Is an eight good?" he asked, but it wasn't and he turned over an {8-} and was eliminated.

Also joining the field at the break was Brian Hastings, Daniel Negreanu, and Carol Fuchs.

Benson Takes from George

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

One of the newer faces in the field is Australian Gary Benson, who won his country's first-ever bracelet back in 1996.

In this hand, Christopher George checked both sixth and seventh streets to him, and Benson bet. George called him down both times.

Gary Benson: {x-}{x-} / {4-}{a-}{5-}{k-} / {x-}
Christopher George: {x-}{x-} / {3-}{7-}{8-}{j-} / {x-}

Benson showed {a-}{2-}{6-} for a six-five low and took down the pot.
