It only took a few minutes out our final two tables to lose a player.
Nicholas Mullen first lost a pot to be short stacked, then got the rest of his chips in holding 
preflop and had to come up against the 
of Cameron Bryce. The 
was very attractive to Mullen, but the 
turn and the 
river didn't give Mullen one of his many outs and so he was eliminated in 18th place.

Edison Nguyen was just looking down the barrel of elimination but a remarkable run out of the board has given him a dramatic double up to stay alive in the Main Event.
Action folded to Nguyen in the hijack position and he moved all in for a total of 171,000. Play passed to Cameron Bryce in the small blind who made a quick call with 
to have Nguyen in trouble with his 
.
The flop was a bare 
and Nguyen had one foot out the door, but the 
turn and 
river brought Nguyen a couple of lucky ducks for trips to stay alive!
Nguyen doubles to 350,000 and now has some chips to do some damage while Bryce curses his luck with 225,000.
