Lehavot Eliminated 5th ($12,882); Updated Chip Counts from the $560

$560 Deeper Stack No Limit Hold’em
Level 28: 40,000/80,000/10,000 Ante
Players Remaining: 4/452

Action is off and running following the first break of the day in the $560 Deeper Stack event. Chasing Daniel Notice to the rail in Level 27 was Yoram Lehavot. Lehavot, who finished 7th in the $350 Deep Stack Series opener just a few days ago, busted at the hands of Chad Eveslage. He got all-in preflop holding Qh9s and was behind the Ac8c of Eveslage. A KcQs3c9c2d runout gave both players a sweat, but ultimately didn’t change anything in the hand leaderboard. Lehavot earned $12,882 for his 5th-place finish.

James Salmon retains his lead four handed, but the stacks are leveling out. The tournament’s short stack, Andrew Gordon, bought into the event yesterday morning before cards went in the air for Day 2. He took his seat to eight big blinds and now finds himself within reach of the $57,746 top prize.
