As Padraig Parkinson bellows, "There's only one Jeff Duvall!" from the rail, it is very possible that there will soon be no Jeff Duvalls in this tournament. He lost a sizable pot to Erik Albinsson just now, and has dropped down to just 30,000.
Marc "Mr. Cool" Goodwin has become our latest in-the-money eliminatee, a victim of Mark Gregorich who was holding a very respectable full house. Goodwin bet out on fifth street only for Gregorich to raise him. Said Goodwin, "I reckon he's got me done," but with most of his meager stack in the pot already he called, and then called all in on sixth street.

Goodwin: with and two more cards that he showed to Gregorich, but not, alas, to this blogger.
Maintaining his cool to the end, Goodwin made a gentlemanly exit and went to collect his cash.

Sherkhan Farnood has set Phill Hellmuth a-ranting. He won a monster stud pot from him, resulting in Farnood now shifting up to the heady heights of 120,000, while Hellmuth is down to around 70,000. "Split sevens against my rolled up eights?" cries Hellmuth. "You're the worst player I've ever seen. It doesn't matter though, I'm going to get all those chips back off you." Said a very jovial Farnood, "I would be glad to give these chips back to you."
Luckily Padraig Parkinson is on hand to shout some advice from the rail: "Don't get upset now, Phil, you're the man. Phil! Relax! You're my f***ing hero."

Jeff Duvall scooped a massive three-way pot against Mark Gregorich and Jeff Lisandro for his tournament life. Virtually all in by sixth street with just 300 chips behind, he threw that in too before seventh street was dealt, and enjoyed a full triple-up come showdown putting him up to around 60,000, although he lost a few chips back to Phil Hellmuth the very next hand. He's now on around 45,000, while Mark Gregorich is down to just 17,000.
Back to good old hold'em, and it folds around to Hellmuth who makes up the small blind. Eric Albinsson in the big blind checks.
Hellmuth bets out on the flop, and Albinsson swiftly calls. Hellmuth check-calls the turn, and then bets out again on the river. Albinsson thinks about for a moment before tentatively calling, but just taps the table and mucks when Hellmuth turns over for top pair.

On the Lederer, Ivey, Negreanu table things have become a little subdued. It might be that almost every pot is either being split or not getting to showdown. For those feeling card dead there isn't much to keep them entertained or any interesting hands to spark a conversation.
