Lily Kiletto

The line at the payout desk continues to be consistent and we are down to 160 players from the 423 who returned a few hours ago.

Lily Kiletto was one of the recent eliminations. She open-shoved for her last 88,000 from under the gun and it folded to the button. He reshipped to isolate and she needed help.

Kiletto: KsQs
Button: AsJd

Kiletto was live but blanked the 9h7s3cTc2c runout to exit the tournament.

Nick Raio

After a quick burst of activity following the money bubble, the remaining players were sent on their first break of the day. Unwind after the bubble stress.

We walked the room and Nick Raio continues to sport the biggest stack with 915,000 with Uri Kadosh his nearest competitor with 880,000. Other notable top stacks include Oscar Lindo (710,000), Cesar Fuentes (700,000), Adrian Curry (670,000), and Nicholas Mahabee (550,000),

Oscar Lindo

It took a while to get there but Event 1 is finally in the money. The process involved five, long hands before we had a major pot and it drew a big crowd of players.

With the board reading QsJd7hJs, Dantonio Brown (UTG) was  all in for his last 160,000 and Oscar Lindo (small blind) had him at risk. Then they had to sit back and wait around till all the other action was complete. When it was their turn, Lindo showed trip jacks Jh8h and Brown was drawing dead with Ah4d.

Brown was eliminated in 301st place while Lindo moved up to 685,000.
