Main Event Final Table: Kim, Sar, Meyer Out, Wheatley Leaderboard Winner
Main Event Final Table: Al Carmosino finishes 6th, Players Make a Deal
Al Carmosino of Aruada, Colorado was our 6th place finisher, collecting $9,030. After his elimination, players had a lengthy discussion about a deal, and eventually did so based on their chip stacks at the time, as follows:
James Wheatley - $31,118
Bona Sar - $18,039
John Kim - $25,461
Bryan Watkin - $29,994
George Meyer - $20,808
1st place will receive an additional $7,000, and 2nd will receive an additional $3,000. They are still playing at 20,000/40,000/5,000.
Main Event Final Table: Internet Back, About to Return from Dinner
Our internet went out for more than an hour, cutting off the stream and preventing us from updating. It just came back, and coincidentally players are about to come back from dinner break.
They will be playing at 20,000/40,000/5,000, and the average stack is 731,667.
Julian Herbrecht out in 7th
Julian Herbrecht moved all in for just over 100,000 from the button and was called by Al Carmosino with [Qd][Tc] in the big blind. He had [9s][7s], and the flop was a good one when for Herbrecht when it came down [7c][6d][6h] but the turn [Tc] put him behind with one card to go. The [5c] was no help, and Herbrecht, of Grenoble,France, was sent home in 7th place for $7,220.

Main Event Final Table: Ylon Schwartz Out in 9th, Stefen Starner in 8th
We just had our first two eliminations of the final table. Former WSOP Main Event final tabler Ylon Schwartz was the first to go, finishing in 9th place for $3,610.

$200,000 Guaranteed Main Event - Final 18 Set For Sunday; Heider Bubbles
It's never fun to be the bubble boy, but especially the way it happened for Mitchel Heider of Henderson, Nevada. He was ahead preflop, fell behind on the flop, regained the lead on the turn, and lost it on the river. The hand will be posted shortly here on DetoxPoker.com. Stay tuned for that & final chip counts & seating assignments for Sunday Afternoon.
Tune in at 3pm for all of the action, streamed live.
Main Event Day 1B - Alex Outhred Eliminated in 11th
After losing most of his chips in a coinflip with pocket sevens against [Ah][8h], he got the remainder of them in on another flip, with [Ad][Kd] against pocket fours, but the board provided him no relief.
He will receive $1,200 for his finish.
Blinds are 4,000/8,000/1,000, and we have combined to one 10-handed final table. There will be one more player eliminated tonight and then play will be over for the night.
Main Event Day 1B - David Tuthill Out in 12th Place
David Tuthill three-bet his opponent from the button preflop with ace-seven, and his opponent in the cutoff called. The flop came king-high, and Tuthill moved all-in after his opponent checked, eventually calling with king-queen. There was no ace for Tuthill, of St. Petersburg, Florida, and he finished 12th for $1,200.
Blinds are now 4,000/8,000/1,000, with an average stack of 207,275.
Main Event Day 1B - 12 Left; Mezy, Essak, Dicarlo, Berg Out
We are now down to 12 players, being played six-handed at each table. When we get down to 10 we will combine to one table and eliminate one more player to get down to nine.
The following players each made $1,200:
13th: Ramsey Mezy, Las Vegas, Nevada
14th: Vance Essak, Las Vegas, Nevada
15th: Salvatore Dicarlo, Las Vegas, Nevada
16th: Lawrence Berg, Las Vegas, Nevada
Ramsey Mezy joins Chris Griswold in cashing in this event twice, with a final table eluding each of them.
16 Left; Kabilio, Block Eliminated, Players on Break
We are now down to just 16 players. Each of these players earned $1,200:
17th: Michael Kabilio, Las Vegas, Nevada
18th: Eric Block, Las Vegas, Nevada
Players just went on break. When they return they will be playing 3,000/6,000/1,000. The average stack is 142,500.
Main Event Day 1B - 18 Left; Cooper, Gracie, Griswold, Wojcik, Maven Hit the Rail
We are now down to 18 players and two tables. Each of these players earned $800:
19th: David "The Maven" , Fort Worth, Texas
20th: Daniel Wojcik, Newark, New Jersey
21st: Chris Griswold, Las Vegas, Nevada
22nd: Rob Gracie, Las Vegas, Nevada
23rd: Jamie Cooper, Las Vegas, Nevada
Griswold is the only player to cash on both Day 1A and Day 1B. Everyone else from here on out is guaranteed $1,200. They are now playing 2,500/5,000/500 and the average stack is 126,667.
Main Event Day 1B - 23 Left; Rische, Zhang, Akutagawa, Sluzinksi Hit the Rail
We've had four eliminations since the bubble burst. Each of these players will receive $800:
24th: Jeff Sluzinksi, Las Vegas, Nevada
25th: Daryl Akutagawa, Pasadena, California
26th: Kevin Zhang, Las Vegas, Nevada
27th: Keith Rische, Henderson, Nevada
Main Event Day 1B - Bubble has Burst, Outhred Causes Technical Difficulties
The bubble was finally burst when a player moved all-in for 8,500 with [Ad][Jd] and was called by Ylon Schwartz in the big blind with [Ac][3d]. A three on the flop gave Schwartz the pot and 26 new friends.
We would have video coverage of this hand, but Alex Outhred bumped our monopod and disrupted the coverage, so you have him to blame.
(Full disclosure, he was very apologetic about the incident, and he couldn't be a nicer guy).
Main Event Day 1B: On the Bubble
We are down to 28 players, and the bubble has lasted at least 10 hands thus far.
Main Event Day 1B - On Break, 30 Left, Introducing 5K Chips
The final 30 players are on break as the 100 chips are raced off. A new 5,000 chip is also being introduced into play.
When they come back from break they will be playing 1,500/3,000/500.
