It's no lie - Boston Celtics legend Paul "The Truth" Pierce has been eliminated from this event.
The action folded to California's Casey Stewart who raised to 850 from middle position before Pierce reraised to 1,500. All the others got out of the way and Stewart four-bet it, putting Pierce at risk. Pierce decided to call all-in and the cards were tabled:
Stewart:
Pierce:
The board was spread and Pierce was fouled out. We can also report that Kara Scott has also been eliminated after having been crippled in an earlier hand.
McLean Karr four-bet on the button to 3,175 preflop and got one caller. They went to the flop of , the caller checked, Karr bet 5,300 and the other player moved all in. Karr snap called and tabled , unfortunately for him his opponent held for top set.
The board finished and Karr sent 16,000 over to his opponent.
We don't know the action preflop, but when we got to Scotty Nguyen's table he was calling a bet from the person in front of him on a board of .
Both players decided to check on the turn. On the river however it was Nguyen who put out a bet of 2,000 after his opponent checked to him.
The player in early position folded, and Nguyen showed him what he had claiming he had slow played him. Nguyen however did not show us what he was holding...
We found Jon Turner at his table raising under the gun only to be reraised by a player in middle position who had gone all in for about 7000 in chips. Turner contemplated for a couple of minutes before ultimately putting the chips in the middle. Cards were turned over and Turner was in bad shape as his needed a lot of help to beat his opponent's .
The cards fell and with a set of sixes, ever so quiet Turner added more chips to his consistently high stack.
We caught up to the action, or rather were called over to the action by Humberto Brenes. While a player sat and thought about what he was going to do Brenes was kind enough to tell us how the action went. He says that a player in late position made a raise which the small blind called.
Brenes then raised on the big blind and made it 2,000. The player in late position folded and after a few minutes of contemplation the small blind folded.
Humberto being Humberto was kind enough to let his opponent see one of his cards, and a was flipped.
Erick Lindgren has decided to put his iPad away on concentrate on some poker. From the cutoff he opened for 1,200 and got a call from the small blind. The flop came out and Lindgren bet out 1,400. The small blind appeared to think about calling, but then folded.
Lindgren flashed a king as he mucked his hand and is up to 16,000. See what happens when you put the tech toys away kids?
From under the gun, Andrew Feldman moved all in for his last 2,775 before the flop and the action folded around to a player in middle position who reraised. The others got out of the way before the cards were tabled:

Feldman's set was more than enough to pick up the pot and stay alive in this tournament.
