Eli, however, is also eliminated.

Allen Cunningham got knocked out with kings, as he ran into aces. Tough break for him.

Jean-Robert Bellande is also out.

The only real big name left appears to be Eric Lindgren. Nice guy, I would love to see him make the final table.

We are down to 57. Only one woman remaining, as well.

Who's the chip leader and back how much?

As of this very moment, I'm not sure, depeche.

I know Erick Lindgren is still alive, but is working with a short stack.

It's going to be live on ESPN2 starting at 7 PM EST.

Hilton Laborda appears to be the current chip leader.

This is the same guy that was check-calling two streets yesterday with a gutshot, and ended up getting there on the river.

This guy goes to show that no matter how good you are at poker, there is still a tremendous amount of luck involved.

Yeah, he's the donkey I was talking about earlier calling with the gutter ball.....Laborda.

But to his credit, he did make a nice bluff today with K9, and just now had queens and managed to not lose his entire stack to aces.

They should have a 1 minute clock on these poker losers posing as rocket scientists. And you should be allowed 3 timeouts during the tourney to extend your decision-making time. At 50 seconds, have an automatic 10 second countdown. After the minute is up, muck the cards of the self-absorbed asshole who has not made a decision yet.

This is fucken ridiculous, this Giannetti guy is taking 10 minutes to decide. If I was sitting there I would call the clock on his stupid ass.

Bling - you obviously have never played poker - That was a huge decision or Gianetti. Lamb was dying for a call there at that spot.

Also its a dick move to say anything when your playing for so much.

Lamb will take this down, he is by far the best player.

Take a look at this kid's run this year....

https://www.wsop.com/players/playerprofile.asp?playerID=18428

Could be the best run in WSOP history depending on how he closes this thing out.... Actually it prob is already... Sick man has POY already locked up.... Won a bracelet in 10k PLO and has finished 2nd, 8th and 12th already.....

He's the real deal..... Didn't know he placed 14th in 09 ME and also cashed in 07 ME....

As far as all that stalling shit... I understand both sides of it..... If the guy is really tested for his tourney life and all this money at stake this deep in tourney.... He actually has a hand that he could call with. I understand....

Posturing - This shit is fucking ridiculous.... When a clown tanks for 10 min, holding up all the action, eating up the camera, only to fold air....

King high or some dumb shit that he'd never call with.... This is seen and done in poker all the time and needs to be retired.....

Posturing is what I think Bling and Wizard were talking more than anything....

the one guy had aces with K kicker and took a while to eventually call... his opp had AQ ( two pair )

so some of the time they do have a hand but yea its the worst when they take forever just to fold.
