Hoang eliminates Lundberg when all the money gets in preflop. Hoang has 9 9 and Lundberg K K. A nine on the turn trumps the kings. Lundberg is out 34th.

I have an update on the Player of the Year race. Nam Le has been eliminated in the WSOP-C event in Atlantic City. Now the only contender who can catch Mizrachi is John Hoang. If Mizrachi takes ninth or better, he clinches. If he fails to clinch, Hoang can win it if he takes first in this event.


Sunday, 17th of December 2006 08:33 PM

We're redrawing now that we're at 35 players. Clonie Gowen took 36th. I'll have the list of other finishers soon.
