I think it's something like this. I meant to post this yesterday, while you were still playing, but I forgot.
Hey, when you're on, you're on ...

Thorsson Eliminates Another
William Thorsson raises to $700 from the cut off and the button re-raises to $1,200. The small blind makes a third raises to $3,500. Thorsson re-raises $7,000 more and the small blind calls. The flop comes A22 and the small blind checks and Thorsson moves all-in for $100,000. The small blind makes the call after 2 minutes of deliberation and shows K-K. Thorsson taps the table and says "Wow," and sheepishly shows his 75. The turn is a 3 and the river a 4 giving Thorsson the wheel. Thorsson now sits with $125,000.

That is sick. That dude must have one hell of a table image to have gotten that call.

I count 6 former champs still hanging around on 1D. Varkonyi, Hachem and Huck Seed look decent, and Moneymaker's at 20 grand. Amarillo Slim and Johnny Chan are both below the buy-in, hanging on for dear life.

You forgot Raymer and his 50,000 stack.

Edited to add: Just read the updates from last night. Chan and Moneymaker are out. 8,773 is the official attendance for this years main event.

Sorry ... I was just mentioning last night's players. I think Raymer was on Mark's (or TP's, Bruce Wayne's Clark Kent's, however he wants to be referred to on this forum) night, right?

Is Alan Cunningham the only "big name" left? I think he is.

With only 46 players left, we are WAY ahead of schedule... Crazy.

i thought it was pretty cool to see that richard gryko the actor went out in 50th place. and i am pretty sure the other big name out there is humberto brenes, then agasin he might have already busted out.

they said its been alot of allin preflop coin flip situations, so people are just pushing in and praying, not really much poker playing from what I hear.

Not a "huge name" but Humberto Brenes is still in it.

I still can't believe how far ahead of schedule they are... They got down to 27 while I was playing last night - BEFORE out dinner break, as I recall. That's a full day and a half ahead of schedule. I heard they may play to 9 today and give the players off tomorrow, but that was still undecided when I left. With the FT being PPV, I don't see them changing it, and the off day makes the most sense. Make sure everyone is well rested.

Prahlad Friedman has just been busted 21st...

Allen Cunningham is 2nd in chips with 13 million... I think he has a real chance of winning the whole thing.

I would love to see a pro win this event to tell you the truth.

Whoa! Alan Cunningham was short stacked the last time I saw him... he's second in chips with almost 12 million right now! That's twice as many as third place has...

And then there were 19.
