Beevers Eliminated
Joe Beevers has bitten the dust.
In a button versus big blind hand, Beevers bet 800 on the turn of a 
board before moving all in for his final 1,200 with 
on the 
river.
In hindsight, he will be regretting the bet on the river as his opponent made the call, albeit not immediately, with 
for a superior two pair.
"Good game, nice hand," complimented Beevers as he departed.
Luck of the Irish?
This so called luck deserted Owen Robinson. He opened to 250 to face a three-bet from Erik Seidel out of the blinds. Robinson moved all-in for 2,750 and Seidel called all-in with exactly the same stack. Robinson was in great shape with kings to Seidel's queens but a queen fell on the river to eliminate him.

Break Time
Players are now on a break to discuss bad beats and smoke cigarettes.
Bad Time to Bluff
Men "The Master" Nguyen picked a bad time to bluff Fabrizio Prete. The turn was out as an eight and he moved all-in on a gutshot draw. He soon saw the bad news as Prete called with a set of eights that held up to eliminate Nguyen.
Renault Travels The Mizrachi Road
Michael Mizrachi raised to 150 preflop before Claire Renault 3-bet to 450 from the button. However, she was not expecting Mizrachi to move all-in but that's exactly what he did.
"Oh no!" said Renault as Fabrice Soulier, her other half playing on the table next door, stood up to see what was going on.
"What are you doing this afternoon?" joked Soulier to Mizrachi as Renault eventually made the call.
Mizrachi turned over to Renault's 
. "I thought you had aces for sure!" piped up Mike Matusow.
The board came 
and Renault's nines held to bust the November Niner.
"I'm sorry," said Soulier, "but I was rooting for her!"
"That's ok, so was I," laughed Mizrachi as he packed up his things and left the room.
Renault is up to 5,300
Ashby Takes a Hit
Richard Ashby has taken a minor hit, doubling up an opponent with 
versus 
on an ensuing 
board. The defeat served up just a minor blip, however, as Ashby still has circa 3,500 in chips.
Keeping His Cards Close to His Chest
I spotted Chris Bjorin on the rail, and unscrupulously inquired as to the gory details of his exit. As expected, he was as coy and clandestine off the felt as he is, merely commenting, "I played very poorly and got what I deserved."
For now, the trio of final tables will have to wait.
"I want to leave that for the Main Event," he smiled.
On the Chopping Bloch
Andy Bloch has been eliminated from today's event. We didn't catch the hand, but do know that serial WSOP casher Nikolay Edvakov was the assassin.
