There was a three way all in. It started when Steven Sides moved all and that was followed by an all in from Emil Olesson for more. And another player came along for his remaining 1,500 less than both Sides and Olesson.

The board ran out and the short stack more than tripled, while Olesson won the side pot and eliminated Sides in the process. Even though he tripled up, the other player was still extremely short would be eliminated just a few hands later.
We don't know the exact betting action, but we do know that Yuval Bronshtein got the rest of his 300,000 chip stack in preflop holding . Unfortunately for him, he ran square into the of Cy Williams. The board ran down , and Bronshtein headed for the payout desk, while Williams upped his stack to over 500,000.
The player under the gun went all in for 18,500 and there was a call from the player in middle position. Bruce Callaway, in late position, also moved all in and it folded back around.

Yesterday, we reported that Danny Daniels, father of Dana Castaneda, gold bracelet winner of Event #54, was in the field and they were hoping to become the first father/daughter bracelet winners in World Series of Poker history. Sadly, that journey will have to wait, as Daniels was just eliminated from the tournament.
Daniel Cascado raised from early position to 16,500. A player in late position called the raise and when action got to Daniels, he moved all in. Casacado folded and the late position player, after some thought, made the call.

Opponent:
Daniels saw the disappointing news right on the flop when it came and he couldn't find any help on the turn and river.
We only caught the aftermath of the hand, but we saw one of the few notables remaining, James Carroll, take down a huge pot to put him up there with our chip leaders. We know that on a flop of , Carroll got all of his 255,000 stack into the middle, and he was in great shape against the of Mario Sanchez. Carroll was just looking to dodge an ace, and he did that on the turn, and the river.
Once the chips were counted down, Carroll rocketed up to 525,000. Despite taking that hit, Sanchez is still well above average with 380,000.
