Steve Zolotow is another late entry, but he is fairing rather better than some of the others, and has got his stack up to 7,500.
He is sat to the left of Antonio Esfandiari and they just played a blind on blind hand. The flop came 
and a check from Esfandiari saw Zolotov bet and take it down.
Zolotow is now acting as the “Brain” in another game of “Lodden thinks.” and we just witnessed another player hand over yet more dollars to the Magician as he came out top yet again.
Mike McDonald didn’t get much bang for his thousand bucks, but at least he got it in good with 
.
The player who busted him told us he called with but wanted it made clear in this report that it was, “Suited.” Duly noted.
The flop was 
and McDonald’s short time at the table was over.
The 
board was already complete when Ilkin Amirov put a short stack all in for his last 7,000. The opponent tank called with 
and Amirov scored the knockout with 
for a turned full house. He is now among the bigger stacks in the field. Below we also have some further updated chip counts.
Apparently 56 players bought in for 10 big blinds. Among the more fortunate was Martin Finger, who doubled up straight away with 
versus the 
of Kory Kilpatrick on a 
board.
An additional 56 players decided to put up $1,000 for 10 big blinds just before the close of entry.
Phil Ivey was one of those players. He came in the back way, played one hand, and bust out.
Apparently more than 15 players registered in the dinner break and bought in for 10 big blinds. These four familiar faces are among them.
