Taking the biggest tumble this week was Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier. His two scores from the 2015 Pokerstars Caribbean Adventure aged into Period 2, leaving his Period 1 slate with just one score.

What to Expect Next Week

Scott Clements is the current chip leader at the final table of Event #21: $10,000 Omaha Hi-Low 8 or Better Championship and with just three scores in his Period 1 slate, Clements is going to take significant strides toward the top 10. Also, more significant shakeups are likely as three different WSOP $10,000 Championship events will be in the books by this time next week.
