Trio of Knockouts
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
With the field closing in on the bubble, the knockouts have come quickly after dinner.
Jared Jaffee was all in against Randen Honigman and James Obst, with Honigman folding after the 5♦5♥7♦ flop. Jaffee was at risk heads-up, but his pocket queens could not catch up to Obst's A♣A♥A♦5♣ after the 9♥ turn and J♣ river completed his exit.
At the same time, Taylor Paur fell to the two pair and low of Yingui Li on a runout of 6♠5♥A♠3♦J♣.
Stephen Chidwick was also exiting the tournament area after falling to the A♣A♥7♥6♣ of Martin Zamani.
