In the Money
Nível 17
: 4,000-8,000, 8,000 ante
After a grueling bubble that went on for more than two hours, they are finally in the money. Short stacks have been doubling at every opportunity, but the run had to come to an end eventually.
Cedric Freling called off his short stack in the cutoff after a middle position raise from Steven Vollers that covered Freling's stack of 11,000. After all the other action on other tables was complete, they revealed the hands, and Freling was ahead with pocket queens against the 
of Vollers.
That all changed on the flop of 
but the 
turn gave outs to a chop to keep Freling alive. The river 
wasn't any help for Freling though, and he was the final person to bust before the money.

Full Chip Count from Dinner (Completo)
Nível 16
: 3,000-6,000, 6,000 ante
They come back from dinner in 10 minutes to Level 17 with blinds at 4,000/8,000/8,0000. Jack Hardcastle still has the biggest stack, but its shrunk a bit since the last count.
Action will still be hand for hand when they return from dinner, as they are still on the money bubble.

Two More Hands till Dinner
Nível 16
: 3,000-6,000, 6,000 ante
Action is still hand for hand in the Main Event, and no one wants to be the bubble in this one. The clock is now showing 1:48 left in Level 16, so they'll play this hand plus one more, then take an hour off for dinner, assuming all 40 players survive the next hand.
Still Bubble Time
Nível 16
: 3,000-6,000, 6,000 ante
Hand for hand has been going on for awhile now, and while there's been plenty of chances to burst the bubble, in each and every case, the short stack has either been ahead and held, or got there for the double. They've been taking three minutes off the clock every hand, and at this rate, barring a bustout, the dinner break will start after eight more hands.
Nível: 16
Blinds: 3,000/6,000
Ante: 6,000
Still on the Bubble
Nível 15
: 2,000-5,000, 5,000 ante
The Main Event is still playing on the bubble. They've played five hands now, and there have been two all ins with calls, but in both cases the short stack doubled up and the bubble remained intact. Action continues hand for hand.
Main Event is now Hand for Hand to the Money with 40 Players Remaining
Nível 15
: 2,000-5,000, 5,000 ante
There are just 40 players remaining in the main event, which means they are hand for hand to the money now.
