In The Money Eliminations
by Court on 12.16.08, 9:59 pm
After the money bubble the players started to drop, with the board going from showing 100 remaining players to 80 players left in short order. Devin “TranquilChaos” Porter (left) moved all in over the top with pocket sevens and ran into aces. The aces held up to send Porter to the payout cage to collect his $21,620 for 94th place.
Andy “BKiCe” Seth earned the same payout for his 84th place finish. Amit “Amak316″ Makhija battled with the short stack after losing a big pot to Roy Winston in an all in preflop situation with his AK against Winston’s pocket queens. Amit was able to battle back but ended up being eliminated when his pocket tens ran into pocket jacks. His 79th place finish also brings the $21,620 payout.
With over 850k Chino Rheem holds the chip lead. Both Hunter “The_Hunt_D” Frey and Luke “IWEARGOGGLES” Staudenmaier are in solid position with around 350k in chips.
