In the $1.5k O8 tournament Scott “BigRiskky” Clements and Chris “SKOAL” Falconer (pictured at left) are amongst the 28 players remaining.

These two players tangled in a pot together with Clements leading the betting the whole way. The board read 654A6 and while Scott was set to take the whole pot on the turn with his KK32, Falconer took the high side of the pot on the river with his AQ62.

The blinds are currently 3k/5k with 5k/10k betting limits so the short stacks are going to have to make moves quickly if they want to chip up and have a chance at the final table.

In Event #8, the Mixed event the 109 players left are in the last level of play for the night and a number of pros and popular online players have already been eliminated. Amongst the casualties are Jon “PearlJammer” Turner, Cliff “JohnnyBax” Josephy, Steve “MrSmokey1″ Billirakis, Chris Ferguson, Phil Hellmuth, and David Williams.

Players still in the hunt include Tom “Durrrr” Dwan, Phil “OMGClayAiken” Galfond, and James “mig.com” Mackey along with numerous live pros.
