We have just received word that Andrew Robinson, who currently leads the WSOP Circuit Choctaw Casino Championship race with 75 points, has been eliminated from Event #12 $580 No-Limit Hold'em, which means he won't be earning any more points here in Durant. Robinson amassed his points over three cashes: 13th in Event #5, 2nd in Event #7, and 4th in Event #10.
With that said, Drazen Ilich is able to catch him if he finishes in fourth place or better. Placing fourth will tie Ilich with Robinson, but he would win the tiebreaker should no one pass him Event #12, though there are still players alive in that event
that could impact the standings.
