We had a brief pause for today's gold bracelet ceremony, during which the players heard the national anthems of England and Iran to honor gold bracelet winners from those countries. Now cards are back in the air.

Ronnie Hofman Eliminated in 8th Place ($25,618)

We had two short stacks to start the day. Both are now eliminated. Ronnie Hofman opened for pot from early position and was called by Lee Watkinson. The rest of Hoffman's chips were in on a flop of {7-Spades} {4-Hearts} {2-Hearts}, with Watkinson quickly calling. Hofman, like McMahan before him, had a high-only hand: {A-Spades} {K-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} {J-Hearts}. Watkinson turned over {A-Diamonds} {k-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} {2-Clubs}, good for two pair on the flop. The {7-Clubs} turn overcoated one of Watkinson's pairs, but the {3-Spades} on the river did not improve Hofman to the winner.

Hofman leaves the final table in 8th place, collectng $25,618. Watkinson is now on about 425,000 chips.

Well, we finally found our first river card. Tommy Vedes opened with another raise, this time to 36,000. McMahan reraised pot from the small blind, another 84,000 on top. Vedes responded by sliding several stacks of chips out, another reraise was enough to set McMahan all in. McMahan called and the cards were on their backs.

McMahan: {A-Spades} {A-Hearts} {K-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}
Vedes: {A-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds}

McMahan had to like his chances -- but only until the flop came down {8-Spades} {4-Hearts} {4-Spades}. With no low draw in his hand, McMahan needed to catch a miracle turn or river. Instead the turn {5-Clubs} and river {J-Clubs} sent him home early.

Vedes now has about 525,000 chips.

Where's the River?

We're already almost ten minutes into play and have yet to see a river. Even turn cards are hard to come by. We did find one after Ted Weinstock opened to 30,000 from middle position and was called by small blind Tommy Vedes. Both players checked a {6-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} flop. On the {J-Spades} turn, Vedes led out for 54,000 and got a fold out of Weinstock.
