If I thought the action was slow the last level, I had something else coming. Only two busted this level and not a lot of monster pots. Dan Heimiller temporarily gave up his chip lead but quickly got it back with a monster pot versus Vivek Rajkumar. Michael Binger knocked out local favorite Bo Toft in 17th by coming behind with his AQ versus AK. The other local players were disappointed to see him go.
17th - "Bo" Toft - $32,500
16th - Bobby Shasta - $32,500
Nicky Frangos is making noise but not with his chips. As the shortest stack left in the tournament he hasn't been able to get any traction with his open raises regularly getting re-raised. If you've seen Nicky play than you know he's spent as much time talking to the rail than he has playing. Towards the end of the level he pushed in several times without getting any action. He is really trying to push Sang Kim's buttons as he's put a few horrid beats on the rest of the table.
The rail is still growing as the field gets smaller. A few poker widows have shown up to take advantage of the comfy stadium seating. Before long the media members will out number the poker players.
Onto the next round.
