"Freddymo999":
"ABeautifulDay":
"Freddymo999" was ahead but needed a cooperative runout, one that did come as "ABeautifulDay" wound up smashing a flop of and staying ahead through the turn and river to eliminate "Freddymo999" from the tournament.

Eric “alwaysliquid” Vanauken:
Ryan "Whosyourdoddy" Dodd:
Vanauken saw his ace up against a higher one and was in need of some help to stay alive. The flop came , bringing with it several chop outs. However, none came as the turn and river completed the runout to result in Dodd earning the pot and the knockout.
Vanauken quickly rebought with around one-and-a-half levels left remaining in the registration period.
In Level 10 with blinds of 1,200/2,400 and an ante of 300, "Lanfeust" saw action fold around to them on the button and jammed for 13,900. "marysgotqueens" called in the big blind.

Meanwhile, "JakeTheSnake99" just found a double as well, holding with two queens versus the ace-nine of "brogna2phi" in an all-in preflop situation on an adjacent table.

The second break of the night has just concluded and Level 9 is officially underway with blinds of 1,000/2,000 and an ante of 250. Forty-two entries have now been recorded and 23 players remain with "jerseyman99" atop the counts as the only player above six figures.
A full list of chip counts has been provided below.
In Level 8 with blinds of 800/1,600 and an ante of 200, "jerseyman99" limped in early position and Eric “alwaysliquid” Vanauken jammed for his last 8,400. "SLHalper13" re-jammed for 20,500 in the small blind and "jerseyman99" called both shoves.
Eric “alwaysliquid” Vanauken:
"SLHalper13":
"jerseyman99":
Nothing changed on the flop , but the turn all of a sudden put both at-risk players in need of hitting two outers to stay alive. Neither found any luck on the river and both pots were shipped to "jerseyman99" as the other two players were sent to the virtual rail.
"SLHalper13" has not rebought, while Vanauken got back in on the action after a minute or two.
In Level 7 with blinds of 600/1,200 and an ante of 150, "jerseyman99" limped under the gun and "MatchupProof" pumped it up to 4,200 in middle position. Michael "miw210x" Wang called in the hijack and saw "Doni34" in the big blind and "jerseyman99" both call, taking postflop action four ways.
The flop dropped and action checked to "MatchupProof," who made a continuation-bet of 6,000. Only wang called, taking action heads up to the turn . "MatchupProof" fired out another 30,000, more than enough to put Wang all in, and he quickly called off his remaining 21,000.
Michael "miw210x" Wang:
"MatchupProof":
"MatchupProof" had flopped two pair and turned a flush draw that filled up on the river , but it was all for naught as Wang had flopped a full house, earning him the double and a bit more.
