Two Tables
Jun 30, '07
The number of known players in the field is shrinking. In the last hour Doc Jennings (16th), Steve Zolotow (15th), and Chris Ferguson (14th) were all eliminated earning $6,496.
Ferguson was dealt a bit of a blow to the stomach by the poker gods. With only two $1,000 chips left Ferguson was dealt a wheel to triple up to $6,000. A few hands later he was in the big blind, and Eugene Ji put him all in before the first draw. Ferguson called and stood pat, while Ji drew three cards. Ji drew one card on the next draw and Ferguson again decided to stand pat. Ji decided to stand pat for the final draw and showed a 9-7-6, which was just enough to nip Ferguson's 9-8-7.
Arturo Diaz was then eliminated by Andy Bloch prompting the players to redraw for the final two tables. Robert Swickard was the first to cash after latest pay bump earning $8,662 for 12th place.
There are currently 11 players left. The blinds are $3,000 and $6,000.
