As we were compiling the three-table redraw and getting updated chip counts into the system, three more players have hit the rail.
23rd - Steve Sung - $10,304
22nd - Eric Wasserson - $10,304
21st - Rick Schwartz - $10,304
We do know that Wasserson was eliminated by Brett Richey in a hand of Stud. Wasserson started with split aces and made two pair with sevens, but it was no good as Richey, who started with spilt queens, ended up with queens full of sixes.
Catching the action on fourth street, we found Dan Kelly leading out on each street before moving all in for his last 6,500 blind before seventh street was dealt. His opponent in the hand - Greg Mueller - called him down until seventh as both player's boards read as follows.
Kelly: / /
Mueller: / /
After sweating his final card Mueller made the call only to be shown Kelly's / for two pair as Mueller flashed a pair and folded.
The tournament has just lost Jared Jaffee after Tom Koral eliminated him in a Stud Hi-Lo hand.
Speaking to Koral, he informed us that he started with / and then ran out for a straight. On sixth Jaffe bet, Koral check-raised and Jaffee raised all in with Koral calling.
Jaffe's board read but was not enough to best Koral as he was out in 20th place.

With 64,000 in the pot and a board reading , Tom Schneider checked from the small blind and Chris Klodnicki bet from the big. Schneider woke up with a check-raise to 32,000, and Klodnicki moved all in for 7,000 more. Schneider didn't seem excited but made the call nonetheless.
Klodnicki rolled over the for a full house and Schneider went to muck. Because it was an all-in situation, the dealer turned over his . The meaningless was run out on the river for good measure and Klodnicki doubled
David Moskowitz raised to 16,000 only to have Greg Mueller raise to 24,000. David Benyamine made the call, as did Moskowitz. The dealer spread a flop and Mueller bet 8,000 and found calls from both players before betting out 16,000 when the landed on the turn.
Benyamine and Moskowitz called again as the completed the board on the rive. Mueller bet out 16,000 and both players folded as he moved his chip stack close to 700,000.
With around 60,000 or so in the pot and a board reading , Tom Koral check-raised Alexander Kuzmin's bet. Kuzmin called off the rest of his chips only to have Koral say, "Full house." Koral then tabled the .
Kuzmin was left shaking his head as he showed a full house of his own with the . With that, Kuzmin was sent packing in 19th place for $10,304.
Craig Mckinnon just knocked out two tough competitors in back-to-back Razz hands. Here's a look at the first.
Craig Mckinnon: / /
George Rechnitzer: / /
We picked up action on fourth when Rechnitzer bet and Mckinnon called. Rechnitzer bet again on fifth, and then hesitantly called off his last 5,000 when Mckinnon raised. Rechnitzer showed that he had paired his three and woud need some help. The on sixth didn't do it as it double paired him, but he was drawing live on seventh as Mckinnon only made a 10-8-4-3-A low. Rechnitzer squeezed out his last card to reveal a , giving him a losing J-10-7-4-3 low. Rechnitzer exited in 18th place for $10,304.
In the very next hand, Dan Kelly was felled by Mckinnon. We didn't see the hand unfold but we caught both players' cards (in no specific order) before the dealer pulled them in.
Mckinnon:
Kelly:
Kelly ended up second best and followed Rechnitzer out the door in 17th place. That marks Kelly's eighth cash of the 2013 WSOP, and while he will remain second on the WSOP Player of the Year Leader Board, he will gain a bit on Daniel Negreanu.
