Off the Grid

Incidentally, it turns out that Jim Geary is not just bored -- he is actually a renowned crossword champion, and is clearly keen not to let that skill slide just because he's gone very very deep in a poker tournament. Every time he finds that no decision is required of him, he goes back to his crossword on a side table. Marvellous.

Yeah! Woo!

Adam Adler raised in early position, but Jonathan McGowan made it 320,000 from the small blind. To cries of, "Yeah! Woo!" from McGowan's friends at the rail, Adler folded and McGowan won the pot.

Scott Hall Eliminated in 7th Place ($76,390)

Great Scott

Our players definitely had some serious slurps of wake-up juice in the break, as it's all gone action-tastic.

Peter Rho opened for 105,000 in the cutoff, and it folded over to Scott Hall in the big blind, who made it 360,000. Rho made it 1,500,000 and in a flurry Hall called, or attempted to raise, all in for 1,430,000.

On their backs in a gigantic, chip lead deciding classic coinflip.

Hall: {A-Diamonds} {K-Clubs}
Rho: {Q-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}

"Ace or a king!" shouts a pro-Hall railer. Another one is more ambitious: "Ace-king!"

Nevertheless:

Board: {4-Spades} {3-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} {3-Spades} -- and by this time Hall is drawing dead so the dealer doesn't bother with a river. Eventaully he deals the {10-Clubs}, just for the sake of completeness, but nobody is really watching.

Thus we lose Hall, and Peter Rho is our chip daddy on 3,800,000.

No-Flops Action

Wow, suddenly it's action central over here on the final table.

The very next hand, Scott Hall raised and Peter Rho reraised. With not much pause, Hall moved in, and after a few moments' consideration, Rho passed.
