With the early exit of Chris Bjorin, Willie Tann is the only player in with a chance of making a third out of three final tables at this year's WSOPE. This dream was looking shaky but he's just doubled-up to 2,150. He was all-in on a 
flop with 
versus a caller's 
. The 
turn and river changed not a thing.
Philip Connellier was spotted propping up the bar (not drinking, just propping) with somewhat of a dejected expression.
"I made a mistake," he revealed. "I thought I was value-betting my hand, but it turned out that I'd misread the board. After that, I was a bit rattled."
And it was a misread that ultimately cost him, as he's now added to the list of post-break casualties.
With the rapid early structure in these events, you have win your races, but it would appear as though Rob Jarrett-Smith left his spikes at home as his 
was out-gunned by 
.
"I pushed 13 big blinds from the hijack," he added whilst confirming his exit, "and the guy called in the big blind."
Frank Kasella looks to be the chip leader at the moment with around 15,000 having just picked up a small pot from Fabrice Soulier. The Frenchman check-called 400 on the flop of a 
but then folded when facing a bet of 1,150 on the 
turn.
The near table started out with more stories than Jackanory with Devilfish and Neil Channing on board, but the anecdotes count will dip now that Channing has hit the deck.
Down to just a bowl of rice at the time, Channing moved all in for a few hundred in the cut-off with 
, but was looked up by Devilfish on the button who tabled a dominating .
"Marvellous," sighed a disappointed Channing as an hit the window, but it was followed by a and 
to give him outs to the straight. Despite a flush draw arriving on turn, Channing was unable to hit as the river came the 
to send him home.

Full Tilt Poker sponsored player Paul Zimbler is bemoaning his luck. He told us that he was up to 7,000 but is now back down to 2,100 after his kings were cracked. He raised to 300 and then moved all-in when an opponent three-bet to 700. His opponent called all-in with ace-queen and duly hit an ace on the flop.
