One Double and Some Knockouts
Level 16
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Bernard Gossard lost his chips very recently and the frequently jamming Simon Solomon got it in preflop against Adam Gamsy in a blind battle to get called.
Adam Gamsy: 6?6? 
Simon Solomon: A?10?
The 9?4?2?K?K? board kept the pocket pair ahead and Gamsy doubled for 60,000. Solomon had 36,000 left after the hand and bowed out soon after. With the departure of Toran Tate at almost the same time, the field was whittled down to 17 hopefuls spread across three tables.
