They're Dropping Like Flies!
It is carnage in the Amazon Room right now, so much so that our field reporter returned with a stack of PokerNews Tournament ID cards about two inches thick. Here's just a small sample of the bust-outs we were able to witness:
Daniel Buzgon was crippled after losing a crucial flip with against Peter Jetten's
when a queen hit on the river. Left with just 1,600 in chips, he moved those all-in the very next hand with
after a preflop raise from Seth Hilleren. Hilleren snap-called with
and Buzgon was gone after the board was spread
.
Denise Molloy was then eliminated at the hands of Michael Hallen after she moved the last of her money in preflop with , but failed to improve against Hallen's
. Both paired their ace on the flop but that wasn't enough for Molloy.
And earlier, Karl Mahrenholz moved all-in before the flop with and found himself well ahead of Jeffrey Papola's
, but Papola managed to bink a set of fours on the river. All three players have also joined Gabriel Andrade, Derrick Yamada, Michael Minetti and Karl Pirkopf on the rail.
