Philip Sternheimer: XxXx/10♠7♣10♣8♦/Xx
Timothy Frazin: XxXx/4♣3♠A♠5♣/Xx

Frazin was the bring in. Bolden then moved all in for his last 25,000. Sternheimer completed over the top, to which Frazin called.

Fourth street saw Frazin bet and Sternheimer call. Both players then checked fifth.

Sternheimer check-called bets from Frazin on sixth and seventh streets to complete the action. Sternheimer showed 10♦9♥6♣ for a ten-high straight. Frazin turned over 3♥2♥3♣ for a wheel to lock up the low.

Bolden would need to beat a straight to remain in, and he turned over 4♠3♦ to give himself a sweat. His final card was the A♣, though, and he exited in tenth.

Livello 26 : Limits 80,000/160,000, 20,000 ante

Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better

Action was joined as Peter Brownstein was putting in the last of chips on a board of Q♥J♠5♦A♥. Nghia "3 Putts" Le had Brownstein at risk as the cards were turned over.

Peter Brownstein: K♣J♥5♥4♣
Nghia Le: A♠Q♠10♣2♥

The A♦ river gave Le aces full of queens, and Brownstein's day ended with an 11th-place result.

"We're really 'Kessler'-ing up," said Timothy Frazin from the other table, explaining that it was his new term for moving up the ladder.

Livello 25 : Limits 60,000/120,000, 15,000 ante

Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better

David "Bakes" Baker: 5♣3♠/4♣A♥Q♣7♣/Xx
Eric Rabl: A♠J♣/J♦6♦10♥Q♠/Xx

Baker completed before Rabl raised. Baker made the call, putting himself at risk.

Rabl already had a seven-five low, meaning Baker would need to win the high to remain in. Rabl's final card ended those hopes, however, as he showed the A♣ for a flush. Baker's 8♥ was meaningless as he gracefully exited in 12th place.

Just prior to Baker's elimination, well-known Tournament Director Paul Campbell was eliminated in 13th place.

Action was checked to Mehmood on seventh street, and he checked as well. Mehmood turned over A♣Q♠J♠ for two pair, and he took down the largest pot of the tournament to date when both of his opponents mucked.

Gupta turned over K♣10♣ and got ready to peel while Le showed 9♦7♦. Lee turned over 7♠ to make sevens and fives and Gupta peeled Q♦ to hit the rail in 15th place for $9,682.
