Event 10: On Break, Still At Eight

Event 10: $300 Big Stack PLO8 (Re-Entry)
Level 16: Blinds 2,500/5,000

Aside from two large chopped pots and a double up for short-stacked Robert Wachtell, the eliminations has come to a standstill since the bubble burst.  The best action at the table has been some NSFW snappy banter between Shannon Kelly, Kathy Fleck and the rest of the table.

Even with all the no-harm no-foul fun, we have yet to have a payout in Event 10.  Eight still remain for the championship.
