"You know, I keep calling short stacks with the worse hand and win." That was the reply from Khien Nguyen after my puzzled look when noticing his stack.
Steven Watts was not as fortunate and he has been eliminated. We already seen him move all in twice before on a short stack though.
We've lost another 100 players in the last 30-40 minutes and are sitting at 1,008. One of those knocked out was J.C. Tran:
George Danzer was all in preflop for his last 10,700 and was called by Darwin Giles one seat over. Matt Jarvis raised another 12,800 on top and Giles called that to see the

Bart Lybaert and Loni Harwood are sitting next to each other in the Amazon Tan section. The Belgian was already up to more than 100,000 but then lost pocket queens versus 
preflop to fall back a bit.
Khiem Nguyen opened the action with a min raise and then called the all in of an opponent for about 10,000. It was a coin flip with

and the 
provided the necessary help. We also caught some bigger stacks and three more notables in the purple and orange section.

Facing a raise to 2,200, Andrew Lichtenberger moved all in for 11,500 from the big blind and his opponent made the call.

The tournament clock shows 1,158 players remaining meaning we've lost nearly 300 players in the first level of play today. At this rate we'll be in the money at the end of the next level (probably not).
